Frequently Asked Questions
Your estimated delivery date is a projection based on typical timelines, not a guaranteed delivery date. Actual timelines vary based on the product, finishes, and features you select, and our current order volume, and designer queue for proofs.
The stages:
Initial proof creation takes 3–6 business days after your order, depending on current volume. Once you approve the proof, your order moves into production Ground shipping typically adds 3–5 business days depending on your location.
Your approval sets the clock:
The estimated delivery date assumes you approve your proof son after its sent to you. Manufacturing does not begin until you approve the proof online using the link we send to you. If a proof sits unapproved, or you request revisions, your delivery date moves out by the same amount of time.
Other things that can shift the date:
Revision rounds beyond the first. Custom sizes, finishes, or mounting hardware. Artwork or logo files that need rework before they can be used. Material availability. Carrier delays, weather, and holidays.
If you have a hard deadline:
Please don't schedule a dedication, ceremony, unveiling, or installation around an estimated date. If your plaque is tied to a fixed event, contact us before ordering. We'll confirm whether the date is achievable, and if rush production is available (for a fee). We can also expedite shipping if needed.
Cut stainless steel letters are used for architectural signage, corporate buildings, public institutions, and wayfinding. Their modern, high-end finish makes them a popular choice for both interior and exterior environments.
These letters are waterjet-cut from solid sheets of stainless steel, producing precise shapes and crisp edges. The face is then finished with either a brushed or polished finish for a clean, contemporary appearance.
Finishes include brushed satin and polished (mirror-like). Brushed is most common for interior or professional signage. Polished adds high reflectivity and is often used for lobbies, museums, or high-profile exterior branding.
Alloy 304 is the standard for most indoor and general outdoor signage. For coastal, marine, or high-humidity environments, alloy 316 is recommended due to its enhanced corrosion resistance. We offer both grades based on your location and needs.
Standard acrylic letter sizes range from 2″ to 24″ tall. Thickness is typically ¼″, ⅜″, ½″, or 1″, with custom options available. We’ll recommend the best thickness based on your letter size and installation surface.
Mounting options include stud mount (standard), stud + spacer (for dimensional effect), or double-sided tape (for small interior letters). We include all hardware, templates, and offer nationwide installation services.
