"The successful businesses always have nice looking signs, I'm not worried about them. It's the other guys that don't understand how important their signage is, those are the guys I need to focus on." Jeff Skibell, Quine & Associates (discussing the existing signage that his tenants have and how they need to refresh their look so it doesn't hurt their business)

Recently Completed Projects
Visit Our Unique Sign Showroom
Unique in the entire sign industry, Signs Manufacturing™ built an 85' by 50' (over 4,000 sq ft) indoor sign lighting laboratory for testing the longevity, visibility, and effectiveness of all the lighted signs we manufacture.
The Laboratory is open to the public, for FREE, adding an LED Video Display Showroom because we realized how important one would be to consumers.
If you are considering purchasing an LED Video Display or Digital LED Message Center sign this exclusive opportunity will be particularly important. You must determine what type of sign, and which LED spacing is best, so that your sign will be successful, considering how you will use it.
Therefore:
Nine (9) different full-color LED display signs representing all 3 design types, each with a varied resolution. Various sign sizes are on display so you can determine what sized sign you need.
a Monochrome LED Message Center sign
a 4-thousand shade single-color LED Message Center sign
an economical fixed-message Full-color LED Message Center
a see-thru LED curtain wall display sign
SMD LED signs
a curved LED display sign
a fully self-contained, self-powered portable LED Sign trailer
are always available for you to compare.
We invite you to also observe all other types of signage, viewing them up close as well as from a distance, under varying light conditions (and stay out of the weather while doing so!)

Will your Sodium Vapor or Metal Halide parking lot lights affect the colors of your sign at night? How visible will your pylon sign's border neon be during the day? Should you consider PinLights™, LetterLites™, SpectraLites™, or Trembler™ signs™ Brighter Signs™ neon or Solarbrite™ LED lighting for channel letter signs? Fluorescent or HID lighting for your monument sign? Do Daylight or Cool White fluorescents for your sign make the colors look best? What are the differences between a flex-faced, a Lexan™, and an acrylic-faced sign cabinet?
How will shadows affect my sign's readability during the day? Should the wall behind my sign be light or dark colored? Would a different type of sign look better on my brick wall? Should I consider a routed sign face with push-through letters?
Don't buy your sign from a drawing, a slick website, or photo-shopped pictures, when you can actually see and side-by-side compare Real signs and designs.
With the addition of an interactive transforming storefront our Showroom contains over $750,000 in business sign ideas alone, not to mention signs for churches and schools!

"I almost made a huge mistake by
not listening
to you and visiting your Showroom prior to buying my sign. I
thought I knew what I wanted, after listening to so many
salespeople...boy, was I wrong. My vision of the sign did not
jibe with what it would really turn out to be, even after viewing so
many drawings. It was obvious the moment I entered the
Showroom. If I had stuck to my guns my sign would have been a
disaster. I would have wasted a lot of money." Cecil Drake, Drake Communications
Large or Small We Make (and service) them All
Whether it's the largest sign in Texas,
above and to the left, one of our Sunburst LED Signs™, or one of our smaller
signs, Signs Manufacturing
manufactures, installs, and services them all.
Just the Miller sign's cabinet is over 35 feet tall and
over 45 feet wide. Notice our Quality Certified Signs™
Technicians to the left and right of the sign on the ground, and under
the sign as it is being installed on it's 150 foot tall pole.
("Click" on these images to enlarge for more detail.)
We are the ONLY actual manufacturer of digital
LED signs in Texas. Some others advertise that they do, but
verify! But best of all, we are the ONLY digital LED sign
manufacturer that provides factory-direct sales or factory-direct
service.
Showroom Specials
Sometimes it
really pays to shop.
As an additional enticement to coax you into our showroom, and also smooth our manufacturing flow, we periodically have
limited Specials only available "in-store;" even unannounced to our
sales team.
They are based on opportunities in our
production
scheduling. If we tell our salespeople in advance they
collectively sell too many, causing other problems!
Specials are always for a specific type of
custom-built sign with a large variety of available options, but a very
limited quantity, and first-come-first-served.

* A poorly
installed EMC can void a factory
warranty, leaving YOU to haggle responsibility with the installer and
sign seller (broker.) For instance, without a separate
grounding
electrode being installed during the installation of most LED signs the
manufacturer's warranty is void. Will you know if your
installer doesn't install a grounding electrode? Problems
will
probably begin to occur months later.

If you are seriously considering buying from someone else we suggest
that you also visit their location to observe if they can actually do

only buy and resell signs, working out of a house, office building,
small warehouse, or storefront!

Why Buy Factory-Direct, from a State-Licensed Company?
TURN-KEY
Design, Manufacturing, Installation, and Service
Why not buy from a Sign Dealer (also called a Sign
Broker or a Sign Store?)
Would you give a car dealer $10,000 and tell him to buy
you the best car he can for the money, sight unseen (or from a
drawing?) Don't you think you would get the car that made him
the most?
Do you think you could meet your needs asking for the
cheapest car he can buy?
Why would a sign dealer (sign broker or sign store) be
any different? Remember, they are merely buying a sign from a
manufacturer to resell to you, usually to resemble a drawing, making
the most money they can.
You need to know ALL of the details on how your sign
will be manufactured, and how it will be installed. It needs
to meet YOUR needs, not the seller's profit goals. What is he
telling the manufacturer you don't need?
Believing "...a sign is a sign" gets you a Yugo instead
of a Cadillac. Remember the Yugo? They didn't last
very long, either.
Also, most sign dealers, sign brokers and sign stores
cannot legally install or service an electric sign. Ask to
see their license.
Ask to see a manufacturer's license also. A
few are not licensed to do electrical work, either, they also have to
hire other companies to install the signs they make.
Now, who provides the warranty? The
manufacturer, the installer, the salesman, anyone? If the
sign was installed illegally do you think they'll honor their
warranty? Did they REALLY obtain your City sign
permit? Is the sign even safe?
As a large, both UL and ETL listed manufacturer, our
name is on all our signs. Just like you, we can't afford to
have a bad sign destroy our business. We have to care,
particularly with our LIFETIME* warranty.
If you wonder if a sign-seller can legally install and service
electrical signs through-out Texas go to
https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/LicenseSearch,
enter "Electricians" in the "Inquire by License Type" box and the name
of the sign business or person in the "Inquire by Name" box.
If they are not licensed they can not.
So someone can sell you signs and not be licensed to
install or service them. You may have to have this
done. But unless the electrical signs you buy are "listed"
(U.L. usually) they won't be allowed to be installed in Texas, a State
of Texas Consumer Protection Safety Law designed to insure that signs
are safe to use, with a few local city ordinance exceptions.
It is not illegal to sell them to you, however. Buy carefully.
The State of Texas does NOT allow the installation on non-Listed electrical
signs, and a Texas Sign Contractors License (TSCL) is not evidence of an
OSHA approved Listing for electrical signs. Additional approvals are
required.
"I had a
****-a-**** (sign company) right across the street " that store's out
of business now " I found out they hired some other company to build
and install our sign and they did a really #@%&&$ job,
the thing has never lit right. ****-a-**** Corporate won't do
anything, they say the closed store was an independent franchise, and
the sign builder/installer won't fix it, they say we weren't their
customer. I need you to come out, tell me what it will cost
to get the thing working properly and get it fixed." Chris Jennings, Jimmy Johns
