Custom, Code-Compliant Signage From Concept Through Installation

Glanz Signs provides comprehensive signage solutions for commercial, architectural, corporate, biotech, hospitality, municipal, and multi-site environments.

From a single custom sign to a complete campus-wide signage program, our team brings design, project management, fabrication, permitting, and installation together under one roof. With decades of experience and in-house manufacturing capabilities, we help turn design concepts into durable, code-compliant signage built for the environments where it will live.

Design & Planning

Successful signage begins long before fabrication.

Our team works with property managers, architects, designers, contractors, developers, and end users to develop signage solutions that balance aesthetics, function, code requirements, fabrication methods, and budget.

Our capabilities include:

  • Site surveys and field verification

  • Signage planning and consultation

  • Design development

  • Construction and fabrication drawings

  • Material and finish recommendations

  • Sign location planning

  • Wayfinding development

  • Landlord and architectural criteria review

  • Code and permitting review

  • Value engineering

Whether we are developing a project from the ground up or working from an established design package, our goal is to identify potential challenges early and create a clear path from design to installation.

Architectural Signage

We fabricate custom architectural signage designed to complement the buildings and environments they serve.

Capabilities include:

  • Building identification signage

  • Dimensional letters and logos

  • Monument signs

  • Tenant identification

  • Directional signage

ADA & Code-Compliant Signage

ADA signage requires precision, consistency, and a thorough understanding of accessibility requirements.

We produce custom ADA-compliant signage for corporate offices, commercial properties, healthcare and biotech facilities, hospitality environments, and public spaces.

Capabilities include:

  • Tactile room identification

  • Raised lettering

  • Braille

  • Restroom signage

  • Stairwell and life-safety signage

  • Accessibility signage

  • Directional and informational signage

ADA signage can be integrated into a broader interior signage program so required signage complements the architecture and brand rather than appearing as an afterthought.

Environmental Graphics & Digital Printing

Large-format graphics allow architecture, branding, and storytelling to become part of the physical environment.

Our printing and graphics capabilities support projects ranging from individual branded elements to complete interior graphic packages.

Capabilities include:

  • Wall graphics and wall wraps

  • Window graphics

  • Privacy films

  • Printed vinyl

  • Dimensional graphics

  • Custom decals

  • Branded interior environments

  • Direct-to-substrate printing

  • Specialty printed applications

Our in-house production capabilities give us greater control over quality, color, materials, and scheduling throughout the fabrication process.

Wayfinding & Signage Programs

Effective wayfinding should feel intuitive to the people using it while remaining consistent with the surrounding architecture and brand.

We develop and fabricate coordinated signage programs for campuses, commercial properties, office environments, biotech facilities, hospitality projects, and other complex sites.

Programs may include:

  • Exterior vehicular wayfinding

  • Pedestrian directional signage

  • Building identification

  • Parking and regulatory signage

  • Interior directional signage

  • Room identification

  • Directory systems

  • ADA signage

  • Branded environmental elements

Our team can manage individual components or coordinate the complete program from initial site survey through final installation.

Custom Fabrication

Many projects do not fit neatly into a standard sign category.

Our fabrication team regularly produces one-of-a-kind signage and architectural elements requiring a combination of materials, fabrication techniques, finishes, graphics, and illumination.

Our capabilities include:

  • Aluminum and steel fabrication

  • Welding and structural assembly

  • Custom cabinets and enclosures

  • Routed and dimensional components

  • Acrylic fabrication

  • Painted and specialty finishes

  • Applied graphics

  • Integrated lighting

  • Mixed-material assemblies

When a project requires something unusual, we work through how to build it rather than limiting the design to a catalog of standard products.

Permitting & Code Coordination

Sign regulations can vary significantly between jurisdictions, properties, and project types.

Our team assists customers with the permitting process, including:

  • Code research

  • Permit drawing preparation

  • Sign permit applications

  • City submittals

  • Plan-check responses

  • Landlord approvals

  • Coordination with engineers when required

Our experience working throughout San Diego County helps us identify potential permitting issues early and move projects efficiently from approval into production.

Installation

A well-built sign is only as good as its installation.

Our experienced installation team handles projects ranging from interior identification signage to large exterior architectural and illuminated sign systems.

Installation capabilities include:

  • Interior and exterior signage

  • Monument signage

  • Building-mounted signage

  • Illuminated signs

  • Dimensional letters and logos

  • Wall and window graphics

  • ADA signage

  • Wayfinding programs

  • Sign removal and replacement

  • Refurbishment and retrofit projects

Our crews are experienced working in active commercial environments, construction sites, corporate campuses, and occupied facilities where coordination, safety, and professionalism are essential.

Multi-Site Programs & Nationwide Shipping

While Glanz Signs is based in San Diego, our fabrication capabilities extend well beyond Southern California.

We support customers with multiple locations by providing consistent fabrication, branding, packaging, and shipping for signage programs throughout the United States, including Hawaii, as well as international destinations.

For multi-site customers, we can help maintain consistency across locations while providing a single fabrication partner for ongoing signage needs.

One Partner From Concept to Completion

Bringing design, project management, fabrication, permitting, and installation together allows us to maintain greater control over quality throughout the entire process.

Whether you need one custom architectural sign or an ongoing signage partner for a complex portfolio of properties, our team is equipped to take a project from concept through installation.
