CUSTOM SIGN MANUFACTURING in OH, KY and WV

Built from the Ground Up—at Sun Sign Company

At Sun Sign Company, sign manufacturing isn’t just part of the process—it is the process. From raw materials to fully wired, illuminated signage, nearly everything we build is crafted in-house by skilled fabricators who take pride in their work.

With over 15 years of hands-on experience, we’ve built a reputation for dependable, high-quality signage that holds up in the real world. Whether it’s a towering pole sign, a sleek monument sign, or a custom wall cabinet, we design and fabricate signs that are made to last—and made to stand out.

What We Build (And How We Build It)

We don’t rely on prefab components or imported frames. Instead, we start with raw material and build from scratch:

  • Steel for structural supports and poles

  • Aluminum sheet, from .040" to .500", with most large cabinets crafted from durable .125" (1/8") aluminum

  • Aluminum extrusions for framing and trim

  • Polycarbonate faces, clear and white, typically .177" thick for wind resistance


Then our fabrication team gets to work: we cut, weld, bend, router, sandblast, and paint to shape each sign. After that, we install wiring, electronics, and high-efficiency LED lighting to bring it to life.

It all begins with a solid sign design and ends with a custom, code-compliant sign that proudly reflects your business.

Engineered to Perform, Built to Last

At Sun Sign Company, we don’t guess when it comes to material selection, joinery, or fasteners. Every sign we manufacture is backed by professional structural and electrical engineering—an essential step in the permitting process and a major part of why our signs last.

Here’s how the process works:

  • We design the sign—how it looks, functions, and represents your business

  • Our engineering partners determine how it must be built to meet wind load, electrical, and soil-based structural requirements.

From wind shear and snow loads to earthquakes and lightning strikes, everything is calculated up front. Our signs don’t just look right—they are built to meet local code, zoning, and safety regulations.

When the permit’s issued, inspectors know they’re approving a sign designed by professionals and installed by a team that takes it seriously.

Certified Fabricators. Reliable Results.

Our signs are built by professionals—certified welders, metalworkers, painters, and electrical technicians—each an expert in their field. We apply automotive-level finishes, build signs that stand up to tough Midwestern weather, and assemble every component with purpose.

We’re also proud to operate with environmentally responsible practices, using low-VOC paints, LED retrofits, and smart material sourcing to reduce waste and energy consumption.

Why In-House Manufacturing Matters

When you choose Sun Sign Company, you're not getting a sign shipped in from across the country or pieced together from off-the-shelf components. You're getting:

  • Full quality control from start to finish

  • Faster project timelines

  • Local service and support

  • True custom solutions—not templates

If your sign ever needs service, you’re not calling an out-of-state help desk—you’re calling the team that built it.

A Legacy of Distinctive Sign Projects

We’ve had the privilege to design and fabricate standout signage for clients across Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. From The Greater Portsmouth Regional Airport to emergency services, credit unions, churches and community parks, our portfolio speaks for itself.

Each sign we build is a reflection of the business it represents—and we take that seriously.
