8' DIAMETER LIT SIGN CABINET THAT TURNED A BRICK STOREFRONT INTO A BEACON.

Challenge

Casper Brewing needed a storefront identity that read clearly from the road at night without competing with the building's architectural design. The existing vinyl banner was invisible after dusk and out of step with the brand.

Approach

We surveyed the façade, modeled return depths in-context on the siding, and prototyped warm-white LED modules against the siding color to dial in halo softness before fabrication.

Solution

Fabricated aluminum-return sign cabinet with color-matched returns. UL-listed warm-white LEDs at 3000K.  City sign permit secured in-house.

Outcome

The storefront now anchors the block after dark. The brewery is now easily recognized to drive by traffic during evening hours and the install became their most-shared photo on social.

"They didn't just provide a sign, they lit our brand — literally."

Interior dimensional identity for a 24/7 operations office.

Challenge

Securitas was relocating their regional office and needed a lobby identity that felt corporate-grade on day one — installed cleanly on textured drywall without visible fasteners.

Approach

We surveyed the interior, measured the walls, spacing and sight lines.

Solution

1/2" painted PVC dimensional letters, brand-color matched, flush-mounted with hidden studs and VHB backup. Installed before drywall touch-up so the painter could feather around the studs.

Outcome

The Securitas branding, history and motivational quotes and pictures are now visible throughout the offices.

Challenge

Door Doctor was running outdated graphics in black with poor quality wraps on their work trucks and losing recognition between jobs. They needed a wrap system that scaled across multiple body styles without re-designing each truck.

Approach

We built a master template that flexes across cargo vans and pickups, locked the phone number and CTA positioning to the rear quarter where it reads in traffic, and produced print-ready mockups for every body style before approval.

Solution

Full wraps in Avery Dennison 1105 with 1360Z laminate. Installed in our heated bay with edge-sealed seams and post-heat for long-term adhesion. 1-year installation warranty and 5-year material warranty.

Outcome

Phone-call attribution from "saw the truck" jumped within the first month. The template now ships with every new vehicle delivery so they're branded within days of receiving so they hit the road as a moving billboard.
