Custom Acrylic Signs

Custom clear acrylic signs are made from a transparent cast polymer that is colorless and highly durable. Acrylic is the common abbreviation for the polymethyl methacrylate polymer. Plexiglas® is the best-known brand name for the substrate. Acrylic and plexiglass are terms that mean the same thing and are often used interchangeably. Read more about the difference between plexiglass and acrylic signs here.

Plexiglass and Acrylic are essentially referring to the same thing. Plexiglass is just a popular brand of Acrylic, also known as polyacrylate. Acrylic is the most common name for “Polyacrylate”, which is the scientific name of the material.

Our Acrylic signs are available in two sizes. You have the option of selecting 1/4” and 1/8”. The 1/4 inch thickness is the most common, if you need the 1/8 inch then you will need to select it in the drop down menu titled “Select your thickness of material”.

“Install from Inside” means that we print on the backside of the material facing in so that you see the print looking through the transparent material.

In order to obtain transparency, you must select the “Spot White” option. This will put a white layer of ink only behind the elements of your design that are showing. You also need to make sure that the areas in which you want to be clear are showing transparent in your file. If there is any kind of background in your file then it is going to print with the background. The “Flood White” option is if you have a solid photo or design, in which case it will be backed with a flood of white ink.

All of our shipping quotes are generated directly from UPS. We are not able to adjust these rates. The rates are determined by size and weight of packaging as well as location in which the package is being shipped to.

Yes - we actually can do this for you. Our standard drill option is available in one size and cannot be adjusted. The size of the holes is .25” and they are placed .75” from the corners to the center of the hole. If you need a certain size drill hole or need your drill holes in a specific location, then you will need to set them up as a cutline in your file and order a “special cut” option.

What you do with your sign once you have received it is completely up to you. However keep in mind that if you damage your sign at all while drilling your own holes then we are not responsible for fixing or replacing the sign.

Our Acrylic comes in 96x48 sheets so anything that does not fit these dimensions will be split into multiple panels.

With the combination of our UV cured ink and our premium materials, you will get the maximum life span out of our products. Acrylic signs will last anywhere from 5-10 years depending on specific usage and conditions

No we do not, however, printing on acrylic is unique because the material itself acts as a very thick glossy layer covering the print.

Acrylic signs are most commonly used for Family photos or Office decor. Acrylic is also a great option for displaying logos and business signs. During Covid-19 acrylic has become very popular for seperating seating areas and merchants from consumers.

Acrylic signs work great for both indoor and outdoor use. Outdoor use definitely adds some level of possible damage but Acrylic signs are more than capable of outdoor usage.

Yes, Acrylic signs are susceptible to damage. It is important to handle with care when installing to avoid any sort of unwanted harm to the sign.

The 1/4” material is a little more rigid and is not likely to bend as easily. The 1/8” thickness is definitely more likely to bend. Acrylic Signs should not take damage with slight bending, but remember it can crack if bent beyond its breaking point.

Stainless Steel Standoffs are most frequently used to install Acrylic Signs. These are used because they allow the sign to hang an inch off the wall creating a floating effect. With the transparency of the Acrylic, this makes for a cool three dimensional look that can not be pulled off with any other material. Other techniques include drill holes/screw, and 3m double sided tape or Command Strips.

Storing an Acrylic Sign is fairly simple. Any cool dry room will be a great place to store your sign. If you are storing it with other items, make sure to cover the sign with a cloth like covering to avoid any scratches or other damage.

In order to get the holes drilled on a new sign that you already have Stainless Steel Standoffs for, you need to select the “Special Cut” option. You will then set up the holes in your file as a cutline where you want them. If the standoffs you have were purchased through us, the size of the holes should be .41”. If you do not have the ability to set up your own cut file, contact our customer service team and we will be happy to assist you.  click here for help on How to Set Up a Cutline.

Clean your acrylic sign using a soft microfiber cloth and non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners (like Windex), which can cause cloudiness over time. Never use scouring pads or rough materials, as they can scratch the surface.

No. Our acrylic is printed with UV-cured inks to resist fading from sunlight exposure. We also use high-quality clear acrylic that won’t yellow, haze, or discolor when used properly indoors or in standard outdoor conditions.

We ship acrylic signs nationwide across the US. All shipments are professionally packaged to prevent damage during transit so you can place your order with peace of mind. Shipping rates are calculated in real-time based on size, weight, and delivery location - straight from UPS, with no markup.

For best results, we recommend submitting vector-based files such as .AI, .EPS, or PDF with outlined fonts and embedded images. If you’re uploading a raster file (like .JPG or .PNG), use a resolution of at least 300 DPI at full size to ensure a sharp print. Keep all critical text and artwork at least 0.25” from the edge to avoid cropping, and make sure to include bleed or crop marks if needed for custom cuts. Transparency settings should be clearly labeled if you're requesting a Spot White finish.
