Inside Our Sign Manufacturing Facility: How Custom Signs Are Made at Signarama Buffalo Grove

A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Professional Sign Manufacturing

When businesses search for a sign company, they often see websites filled with stock photos and generic claims. What many business owners don't realize is that a large percentage of sign companies outsource fabrication to third-party vendors, never actually manufacturing the signs themselves.

At Signarama Buffalo Grove, we take a different approach. Our facility is equipped to design, print, fabricate, assemble, and install custom signage for businesses throughout Buffalo Grove, Wheeling, Arlington Heights, Schaumburg, Northbrook, Deerfield, Vernon Hills, Lake Zurich, Palatine, Lincolnshire, Long Grove, Kildeer, Barrington, Glenview, Mount Prospect, Des Plaines, Hoffman Estates, Skokie, Evanston, Highland Park, and the greater Chicagoland area.

The photo above shows part of our production facility where illuminated channel letters, dimensional signs, wall graphics, lobby signs, ADA signs, vehicle graphics, and custom branding solutions are manufactured for local businesses.

Why In-House Sign Manufacturing Matters

Choosing a sign company that manufactures in-house provides several important advantages.

Better Quality Control

When design, fabrication, and installation are managed under one roof, every stage of production can be monitored. Materials, colors, finishes, lighting components, and construction methods are reviewed throughout the process to ensure the final sign meets the client's expectations.

Businesses throughout Buffalo Grove, Northbrook, Deerfield, Arlington Heights, and Schaumburg rely on professionally manufactured signs because their signage often serves as the first impression customers have of their company.

Faster Turnaround Times

Many sign companies depend on outside vendors for production. This can create delays, communication issues, and scheduling challenges.

Because much of our production takes place in-house, we can often provide faster turnaround times for businesses throughout Wheeling, Vernon Hills, Lake Zurich, Palatine, and surrounding communities.

Greater Customization

Every business is unique. A medical office in Deerfield may require elegant architectural signage, while a manufacturing facility in Wheeling may need large-scale exterior branding and wayfinding systems.

Our fabrication capabilities allow us to create custom solutions tailored to each project rather than relying on standard, one-size-fits-all products.

  • Illuminated channel letters

  • Large-format printing

  • Flatbed printing
