These vibrant signs are a popular choice for churches, schools, hotels, government buildings, restaurants, and any business who wants a standout entrance sign.
OMEGA Monument Signs
Our Omega monument digital signs are our most customizable option. They are more than a sign, but a 3-layer design element placed at the entrance of your school, church, building, mall, theater, office building, or business.
Top Layer—your top layer is your I.D. cabinet. This will feature your business name and/or logo. You have 7 different cabinets to choose from, 2 with stylized lettering.
Middle Layer—your middle layer is your custom LED in a rectangular shape the same width as your I.D. cabinet. It will be custom designed for your unique specs, and for close-proximity viewing.
Bottom Layer—the bottom layer is your decorative base to match your brand or building exterior. You can choose from traditional brick, sleek aluminum, or an elevated pole mount. Your base contains the electrical components and toggle switches.
Frame Color—your final choice is to select a complementary or contrasting frame color that will enclose all 3 layers of your custom digital signs.
Yes, Outdoor Digital Signs Can Be Placed Indoors!
While most of the signs above are capable of being placed outdoors, they can of course be placed indoors.
