Ask on WhatsAppHow do I order a signboard?
Send us a photo of your shopfront, the size you have in mind and your logo or shop name on WhatsApp. We reply with a design idea and a quotation. Once you approve, we make and install the sign.
How much does a signboard cost?
It depends on the type of sign, size, material, lighting and installation. A basic printed signboard costs much less than a lit or 3D sign. We quote for your sign, so send a photo and the size.
Do you design the signboard for me?
Yes. We prepare a design on a photo of your shopfront so you can see it in place. If you already have a logo or artwork, we use it.
What should I send for a quotation?
A photo of the shopfront or wall, the width and height available, your logo or text, and the type of sign if you know it. If you are not sure, tell us what the shop sells and we will suggest options.
Which type of signboard is best for my shop?
For a simple, low-cost sign, a basic signboard works. For a sign that glows at night, choose a lightbox or frontlit 3D letters. For a glossy finish, see acrylic. Tell us your budget and opening hours and we will advise.
How long does it take to make a signboard?
It depends on the type and how quickly the design is approved. Printed signboards are usually faster than lit or 3D signs. We give an estimated date on the quotation.
Do I need approval from the council?
Many local councils (PBT) require approval for business signboards, and the rules and fees differ between councils. Check with yours before installation, and tell us where the sign will go when you ask for a quotation.
Do you install the signboard?
Yes. We install in Shah Alam, Klang, Subang, Petaling Jaya, Kuala Lumpur and across Selangor. Tell us the address and height when you ask for a quotation.
Can you replace or repair my old signboard?
Yes. Send a photo of the old sign. We can take it down, make a new one, or repair the face, lights or frame, depending on its condition.
Do you make signs for offices and indoor use?
Yes. We make reception logos, acrylic plaques, door signs, wayfinding and safety signs. See our office signage and indoor signage pages.
Do you do printing as well?
Yes. We print banners, bunting, posters, flyers, name cards, bill books, stamps and stickers. See our printing service page.
How do I pay?
Payment terms, including any deposit, are written on your quotation or invoice. Ask us if you need to know before you decide.
