Acrylic signs & wayfinding
Most acrylic signage goes wrong in the same small ways: the edges are left frosted from the cut, the fixings are an afterthought, and the typography is whatever came out of the template. Done properly, a laser-cut acrylic sign reads as permanent rather than temporary — which is the whole point of putting one on a wall.
We design, cut, finish and supply acrylic signage from our Leith workshop, for offices, studios, salons, venues, clinics and retail across Edinburgh and the UK.
What we make
- Reception and lobby signs, including layered and stand-off builds
- Door, room and desk signs
- Wayfinding and directional signage as a matched set
- Statutory and safety signage — fire exit, capacity, accessibility
- Menu boards, price lists and tariff panels
- Window and door vinyl paired with cut acrylic
- Illuminated and edge-lit signs — see bespoke light fittings and illuminated signage
Finishes and fixings
- Clear, frosted, opal, tinted, fluorescent and mirrored acrylic, 3–20 mm
- Flame-polished edges as standard on clear material
- Reverse-engraved and colour-filled, or face-engraved for a frosted read
- Brushed stainless stand-off barrels for a floating mount
- Concealed fixings, plate mounts, or 3M VHB for a fixing-free finish
- Layered builds in two or three colours for depth and shadow
Matched sets
Single signs are easy. A building's worth of them, consistent in material, type size, mounting height and finish, is where most jobs come unstuck. We'll work from a schedule — room by room, sign by sign — and produce the set together so the last one matches the first. If you don't have a schedule, we'll help you build one from a floor plan.
Artwork
Vector artwork cuts cleanly. A logo pulled off a website does not — every ragged edge in a traced bitmap shows up in cut acrylic. Send AI, EPS, SVG or PDF if you have it. If you don't, we can redraw it properly, quoted separately so you can see what it costs.
