Monument Sign Design: Entrance Signs for Business Parks
Design a monument sign for a site entrance: a slate face between a darker cap and plinth, the logo and name in bronze, a line on what is there, and the street address, at 2400 x 1200 mm.

How it works
Pick a sign
Shop fronts (serif on cream, or gold leaf on black), opening hours, open and closed, WiFi, wayfinding, restrooms, door plates, staff only, a building directory, a clinic, safety signs (no smoking, wet floor, fire exit, CCTV, hand washing, hard hats), reserved parking, a cafe A-board, a menu board, a hanging shop sign, for rent and open house, lightbox, acrylic, totem, welcome and wait to be seated. Each opens at the size it is usually made.
Make it yours
Click any word to type, any shape or symbol to recolour. Your name, logo, phone and colours go in once under Brand. Sign symbols (restroom figures, arrows, exit, no smoking) are in Elements.
Download for the sign shop
A PDF at the sign's real size, a print PDF with 3 mm bleed and crop marks, or EPS and SVG for vinyl cutting and large-format printers.
A low entrance sign in stone and bronze tones
A monument sign stands low at an entrance, so it is designed like the stone it is often built from: a slate face between a darker cap and plinth, the logo and name in bronze, a spaced line on what the site holds, and the street address.
From design to fabrication
Download the vector PDF or SVG: a sign maker can cut the letters in metal or acrylic to pin to the face, or print the whole face on aluminium composite.
Size
2400 x 1200 mm is a common face; change it at the top and the layout scales. Keep the name at least 150 mm tall to read from a car at the entrance.

Questions
Can it list tenants?
For several tenants, the totem and pylon templates stack tenant panels; the monument suits one name.
Can I use real stone colours?
Yes: set the face and plinth colours to match the stone or render you are using.
What file does a sign shop need?
A vector PDF, EPS or SVG at the sign's real size. For a printed panel ask whether they want bleed (the print PDF adds 3 mm); for cut vinyl letters, send the SVG or EPS.
How big should the letters be?
A common sign-trade rule is 1 inch of letter height for every 10 feet people read it from (about 25 mm per 3 m). A shop front read from across the street needs letters 150 mm or taller.
Can I put my logo and a QR code on a sign?
Yes. Your logo goes in under Brand or from Uploads. Make a QR code in the QR code generator, download the PNG or SVG and add it from Uploads.
Is the sign maker free?
Yes, converting is free: the conversion and checking the result cost nothing, and the work runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded. The side-by-side preview on the converter pages comes with a free account. Saving the finished file is paid: $3.49 for one file ($3.99 for a technical file such as DXF, G-code, STL or embroidery) with no account needed, or included in a plan from $6.99 a month. Saving the print file is paid: one file without an account, or included in a plan.
