Premium Quality Custom Pylon Signs Vaughan & Concord, ON

Name: Pylon Signs
Brand: Sign Source Solution
Rating: 4.6 (137 reviews)

Pylon signs have legs. They’re the freestanding signposts found on the street out front of shopping malls and commercial buildings. These giant billboards can be single-sided or double-sided and are usually filled with the names of the stores and made to list all of the different attractions on site. Supported high off the ground by one or two poles, they’re typically composed of aluminum or steel girders with concrete footings and they have either rigid or flexible faces. They can be internally illuminated with acrylic faces, Impact modified acrylic or Lexan faces (the tempered glass of acrylics), flexible faces, or routed aluminum faces backed up with Plexiglas. There are so many options and the choices affect the signs’ visibility and the distance at which the message can be perceived. Pylon signs can be self-illuminated using LED lights or fluorescent lamps or they can be made without illumination.

Why is it called a pylon sign?

The word pylon is very British even though it comes from Greek. The Brits refer to anything with legs that support something else as a pylon. This includes bridge supports and the concrete supports under highway overpasses or the steel monstrosities we call hydro-towers, they call pylons. It’s a Greek word originally; a pylon was a wood or stone bar or a decorated rod that marked the gateway to an Egyptian temple. Today the modern illuminated pylon sign marks the gate to many different types of modern bazaars in Vaughan, ON.

What’s the difference between a Pylon Sign and a Monument Sign?

Here at Sign Source Solution, we distinguish pylon signs and monument signs. It’s our position that pylon signs have legs and as such, they’re engineered entirely different than monument signs which are solid with no vertical supports. Monument signs have sturdy bases that don’t require deep foundations. Monument signs are made of wood, masonry and stone, or materials that resemble stone. They’re statuesque on-site installations with eye-level messaging.

Sign Source Solution specializes in Foam Core Monuments made to look like real stone. Select from marble, quartz and onyx; these creations appear incredibly realistic and formidable, and of course, this durable material costs considerably less than real stone. A Foam Core monument sign requires no maintenance; it will never fade or decay and it’s tested for extreme Canadian weather (-60 degrees Celsius to 100 degrees Celsius). Sign Source Solution is ready to create a beautiful new foam core sign design for your business, at an affordable price.

What’s the difference between a Monolith sign and Pole Sign and a Pylon Sign?

Monolith signs and Pole signs are also Pylon Signs, but these names refer to signage that has only one upright. Pole signs come in a variety of shapes and sizes but in almost every case a lighted cabinet is supported by a single steel pole. Monolith signs are study installations that have one leg only and it’s so wide the whole block appears monolithic. Each of these designs has its advantages and in the best-case scenario, good signs can become real landmarks that consumers use to navigate the local community.

How much does a pylon sign cost?

That’s too broad a category to answer that question. Each pylon sign is unique and when compared together you’ll see how they vary in complexity, material, and size. This makes it impossible to state a set-price or event postulate a spectrum. Does your project require a sign design? And Legal Permits? And Fabrication? And Installation? To get an idea of the cost of a project, we encourage you to contact us and describe the endeavour and request a quote.

Examples of newly installed outdoor pylon signs

Sign Source Solution has recently updated roadside pylon signs for the Sheridan Mall located at Queensway and Kipling in Toronto, Ontario. This illuminated pylon sign is 34′ high and 12″ wide. This enormous modern "brand billboard" maintains a sleek illumination and wonderful night time appearance with its push-through-acrylic lighting design.

The Sheridan Mall sign demonstrates the ways in which we utilize our creativity and are able to create signs that are not just traditionally square or rectangular but curvy and even more compelling because of their unique appearance. New shapes yield character and can create new appeal for our customers. In this example, we provided the entire solution, from concept to creation and installation.

We did everything from proposing this modern sign shape to graphic design layouts that all came together to create this established and professional look for the Sheridan Mall. Most consumers won’t even consciously notice the new pylon sign. They’ll never ask themselves how they just know certain stores are present on-site or where to go, and it's because the sign is always there and always working to program people with proper information.

If your business’s exterior signage doesn’t impact passing consumers in this way then please consider contacting us to discuss your options.

  I couldn't be happier with the two signs that I recently had made from here. From start to finish, the entire process was perfectly orchestrated and seamless for their customer. Their team truly nailed the vision I had for my sign. The design they created was very modern, eye-catching and professional. They used colours from my website to create a vibrant gradient so that the sign would stand out more to those who would be walking/driving by. The content was laid out perfectly for maximum readability, and I was even given some advice on how to improve my sign. Avi and his team are a pleasure to work with, they are very professional, attentive, fast in their responses and clearly experts at their craft. If you are in need of high-quality signage and a seamless experience, look no further. I am extremely happy with the results and would always go back for my signage needs.

  We had such a fantastic experience ordering a 5-foot custom fabricated reception sign for our office from Sign Source Solution. The company came highly recommended and both Avi and Nicole were wonderful at every step of the process. Communication was fast, a high quality mockup was provided, the install was quick, and the final product looks AMAZING in our office. I highly recommend Sign Source Solution for similar projects.
