Business Signs

Quality signs can increase your revenue

According to one study, adding a sign may increase your revenue by as much as 15%. Imagine the potential increase you could realize by adding or upgrading to a beautiful sand-carved Western Red Cedar original from Warren Langley Signs!

A sign is a great way to make your business grow. In fact, a study by the University of San Diego School of Business found that a business sign can create a significant increase in traffic and sales.

A sign, whether it’s on your building or on the curb, announces who you are, what you do and attracts visitors to your business. You only have about 3 seconds to catch the eye of the drive-by motorist, and about 11 seconds for walk-by traffic to notice your sign. You need to make the most of your business signage. Your signs need to get the message out quickly and attractively.

Build your brand with a Warren Langley Sign

In business, the strength of your brand is critical to attract and retain existing clients.

Brand - a name, logo, slogan, and/or design scheme associated with a product or service. A brand is a symbolic embodiment of all the information connected to the product and serves to create associations and expectations around it. A brand often includes a logo, fonts, colour schemes and symbols, which may be developed to represent implicit values, ideas, and even personality.

Warren Langley has the ability to understand each client’s vision for their brand and knows how to create a custom sign that reflects the unique personality and image of your business. Many of his signs are highly illustrated utilizing his artistic and painting skills. "I'm always pushing the boundaries with new techniques. I'm never satisfied." Warren’s commissions have ranged from small half-foot square to large 84 square feet with typical business signs between 4 and 8 square feet. Smaller secondary signs are also available for additional applications such as “parking”, “entrance”, “exit”, “washrooms”, etc.

His signs provide a beacon for your clients enabling them to find and notice your business, providing directions and most importantly, setting the tone for their guest experience by projecting your brand and image as they arrive, visit and depart.

You design it together

You'll collaborate on the design of your sign with Warren through email, telephone or on-site discussion. Together, you’ll decide on the best size, shape and design for your application. Once you approve the design you can relax knowing that the final product will be exactly as you envisioned.

Only the best materials

Your sign will be made from top quality, knot free, kiln-dried, vertical grain Western Red Cedar. This wood has properties that allow extreme durability and longevity in our Canadian West Coast damp winter and dry summer climate. Signs are laminated in 1 1/2" sections of vertical grain wood that prevents the signs from warping.

Your sign is finished with 2 coats of sign enamel that are brilliant and durable, formulated to withstand extreme exterior exposure eliminating any need for a clear top coat. With colour chips Warren can closely match any specific colours. If a clear cedar finish is required, 3 coats of exterior spar varnish are applied to protect the sign while providing a rich cedar look. If a less glossy finish is required, opaque wood stain can be used.

Worth the wait

All good things are worth waiting for. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks from the time of deposit., Each Langley original is individually crafted, going though up to eleven different stages during the manufacturing process. But the end result will be worth the wait. With easy annual maintenance, your "sign of distinction" will last for years – a decade or more. A sign to be proud of!
