Put Your Name on Metal, Not Paper

Rigid aluminum is what makes a metal sign read as permanent. It won't curl like a poster or dent like foam board, so it holds up on a storefront, in an office, across a parking lot, at a trade show booth, or by an open house, and it stays sharp long after a paper sign would have given up. A single 11" x 17" sign starts at $29, prints full color on a 1/8" aluminum panel, and is rated 4.7 out of 5 across 23 reviews.

These signs are built to your exact spec, one at a time or up to 100 in a run, on a single sturdy material with your choice of size, sides, finish and mounting.

What Is a Metal Sign?

A metal sign is a rigid printed panel made from metal rather than paper or plastic. At 4OVER4.COM, metal signs print full color on a 1/8" aluminum sign panel, in 9 sizes from 11" x 17" up to a custom 30" x 40", finished with 2.5mil gloss or matte lamination, with optional rounded corners and drilled mounting holes.

Think of it as the sign you mount once and forget about. Instead of a paper poster that curls or a foam board that dents, you get a solid 1/8" aluminum panel with your artwork printed edge to edge. The lamination seals the print, the aluminum holds its shape, and the finished sign feels like something you bolt up and leave. People reach for metal signs as storefront and window signs, office and reception nameplates, parking and directional markers, booth backdrops, and real estate or open-house signs. You set the size, the sides you print, the finish and any mounting holes in the live configurator, and the price updates as you go.

What Sizes Do Metal Signs Come In?

4OVER4.COM prints metal signs in 9 sizes. The default is 11" x 17", with 12" x 18", 12" x 24", and 16" x 20" among the presets, and you can order a custom size up to 30" x 40". Every size is set in the live configurator, and the price follows the dimensions you choose.

Size comes down to how far the sign has to read. The 11" x 17" default is the desk-to-doorway size, easy to mount and easy to read up close. Step up to 12" x 18", 12" x 24", or 16" x 20" when the sign has to carry a room or a storefront window. There are 9 preset sizes in all, and when none of them fits, you can set a custom size right up to 30" x 40", made to order. The specs below are grouped exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.

What Material and Finishes Can You Choose?

Every 4OVER4.COM metal sign prints on one material, a 1/8" aluminum sign panel. Ink prints 4 color on the front with a blank back, or 4 color on both sides. The finish is 2.5mil gloss or 2.5mil matte lamination, and you can add a 1/4" radius rounded corner.

The material is straightforward and strong: a 1/8" aluminum panel, the single stock this product runs on. It is rigid, holds its shape, and gives your print a surface that will not curl or tear. For ink, choose 4 color on the front with a blank back, or full color on both sides when the sign is seen from two directions. Then seal it: 2.5mil gloss lamination makes colors pop and adds shine, while 2.5mil matte keeps glare down for signs read under bright light. Want softer edges? Add a 1/4" radius rounded corner. Every one of these is a real option in the configurator, grouped the way you will actually pick it.

How Do You Mount a Metal Sign?

4OVER4.COM can drill mounting holes into your metal sign before it ships. The hole drilling options are none, all four corners, or the top two corners, so the sign arrives ready to screw or zip-tie into place. Paired with the rigid 1/8" aluminum panel, the drilled holes let you hang the sign without cracking or bending it.

A metal sign is only useful once it is on the wall, the post, or the fence, so you can have the mounting holes drilled at the plant instead of drilling into aluminum yourself. Choose none if you plan to frame or adhesive-mount it, all four corners for a flush, secure fix, or just the top two corners when you want it to hang. The holes come out clean and consistent because they are cut to spec, and the rigid panel takes a screw or zip tie without flexing. Decide the drilling in the configurator alongside the rest of your options.

How Much Do Metal Signs Cost?

Metal signs start at $29 for a single 11" x 17" sign, and you can order anywhere from one panel up to 100 in the same run. Because each sign is built to your exact spec, the total moves with the choices you make: a larger size, printing both sides instead of one, adding gloss or matte lamination, drilling mounting holes, or moving to a faster turnaround each nudge the number. Nothing is hidden, since the configurator prices every option in real time before you commit. You can also apply 4OVER4 loyalty coins at checkout for up to 13% off the order.

How Do Metal Signs Compare to the Metal Range?

Metal signs are the flat, wall-ready pick in a bigger family of metal products, but they are not your only move. If you want a freestanding sidewalk sign, the Metal Rod A-Frames stand on their own, and for something pocket-sized, the Metal Business Cards put the same metal feel in a hand. The chart below lines up metal signs against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
