3D Lettering

3D lettering is a great way of ensuring that your signage stands out – literally! We offer two fabrication techniques and three choices of material– acrylic, aluminium or stainless steel – and you can determine the style, size, depth and colour of your 3D lettering signage to make sure that you get the exact look that you want. With Flat-Cut fabrication each 3D letter is cut from either acrylic or foamboard solid sheets with a maximum letter depth of 100mm. Letters made using the Built-Up technique are fabricated in metal which is a laser cut face that is welded with a folded return to create a seamless join. There are no restrictions on the return depth of Built-Up letters so you can get the exact level of projection that you require, and we offer a range of stylish finishes depending on which material you choose.

3D Lettering to Make Your Signage Pop

3D letters add depth and interest to your signage and are a popular choice for the hospitality industry, shop front signage, and office premises. Built up lettering is an effective and easy way of adding visual impact to your signage, and making sure that you stand out from the crowd.

You can design your own 3D lettering or make use of our professional design service to ensure that you get the exact effect that you’re after. Not only can you determine the exact style of lettering and spacing that you require for your 3D signs, you can also control the height and profile of your letters for a truly bespoke signage solution.

We offer three material options for your 3D lettering signs:  precision cut acrylic, aluminium, or stainless steel.  All of these options are suitable for outdoor usage, and acrylic and aluminium allow you the option of creating lettering in colours that match your brand colours.

We supply all of our 3D lettering with fixings for installation and you can choose from a range of fixing options to best suit your installation needs. You can also opt to have your lettering installed using our professional installation service, a great option for complicated projects, or for installations that will require specialist installation equipment because of height etc.

In addition to our 3D lettering signage, we also provide face illuminated 3D lettering, halo illuminated 3D lettering, and of course, flat cut lettering.

Be sure to also check out our other signage products including tray signs, our great range of illuminated signs, lightboxes, neon signs, sign posts, digital signage, signage boards and office branding for walls, windows and floors.

This is the first sign we've ever had made, and Sign Supplier were very helpful and patient with us. We were able to chat through our needs on the phone as well as placing the order online. It was made quickly, and looks great on our new pottery studio.

I've had my trough lighting installed for several weeks now and they have made such a difference to my business throughout the dark evenings. They are extremely well made, and I have no reason not to believe that they won't last for years. I'll be back soon for more signage.

I enquired through the website about some 'flat cut letters' and quickly had a response back asking me further questions and offering advice as to what my best options were. Within a few hours, my quote was with me, and at reasonable pricing. I took their installation service too, which was extremely professional.

I ordered some acrylic plaques online for our school, and the quality is up there with the best I have ever seen. Perfect glass-like perspex, perfectly cut edges, high-quality print that is on the rear so cannot get damaged, and lovely studs. If I ever need more, I'll certainly come back here.
