Depth, Presence, and Visual Impact
Dimensional cabinet signs and 3D fabricated shapes give your business a physical presence that flat graphics can't match. From classic illuminated lightbox cabinets to contemporary geometric forms and precision-cut acrylic letters, we build signs that command attention from passing traffic and stand up to years of Southern California sun.
Aluminum cabinets with acrylic faces and LED interiors. Available in single-face, double-face, and tri-face configurations. The workhorse of strip mall signage.
Deep-molded acrylic faces with dimensional copy and graphics — creates depth and texture at an economical price point. Great for roadside visibility.
Precision-cut acrylic in any color, thickness, and finish — with or without illumination. Mounts directly to a surface for a clean, modern look.
Standardized insert systems for multi-tenant properties, with individual panels that can be updated independently without replacing the whole sign.

A sign cabinet (also called a lightbox or box sign) is a three-dimensional aluminum box with an illuminated acrylic face. They're one of the most versatile and cost-effective exterior sign formats — works well for retail, food service, professional offices, and more. We'll recommend the best format for your specific situation.
In most cases, yes. If your cabinet is in good structural condition, we can replace just the acrylic face with an updated design. This is a cost-effective way to rebrand an existing sign without starting from scratch.
A flat-face cabinet has a flat acrylic panel. A pan-face (or routed face) cabinet has dimensional depth molded into the acrylic, which creates a richer visual effect and is more structurally rigid. Pan-face signs are generally preferred for larger applications.
There's no practical upper limit to the size we can fabricate. We've built single-cabinet signs up to 20+ feet wide for national retailers and roadside businesses. Larger signs require wind-load engineering, which we handle in-house.
Yes — virtually all commercial exterior signs require a sign permit, and illuminated signs additionally require an electrical permit. We handle all permit applications, engineering submittals, and inspections as part of our service.
Common materials include aluminum (durable, lightweight, paintable), acrylic (vibrant colors, smooth finish), HDU foam (lightweight for large logos with excellent carved detail), and stainless steel (premium look, coastal-rated). We recommend the material based on your sign environment, brand aesthetic, and budget.
