Wall signs and pylon signs in Minnesota get a workout.
Our weather can be harsh on exterior signage. There is the wind, hail, heat, humidity and one other uh….. Oh! that’s right, COLD! Not just a rosy cheeks cold, but a bitter, freeze your fanny off kinda cold. So how do exterior signs manage in this weather.
Some do better than others. Many of you have experienced a dim neon sign, especially during the cold. There are reasons for this and you need someone to help. The sign industry is changing and adapting every year. We are currently gaining ground on new products that do well in the cold as well as keep the power costs low.
The wind is another big player for our exterior signs. How many times do you want to pick up your sign after a slight Minnesota breeze? None, come on now, everybody likes it when their sign falls over, right? Of course not. To avoid these tragedies, you really need to have a well trained sign team on your side who knows about keeping the pylon sign standing. In Minnesota, signs get some abuse, but you don’t have to take it.
now get back to work
