Material Options For Your Exit Realty Yard Signs

Most real estate agents know they can select the size, shape, and design of their Exit Realty yard signs, but few know they can also choose the material their sign is made of. However, many agents don't realize there are numerous types of sign materials to choose from for their Exit Realty yard signs. The following materials are the most common used in making Exit Realty yard signs.


Aluminum

The most expensive choice for Exit Realty yard signs, aluminum signs are high quality. They may cost more up front than other types of sign materials, but they are affordable when you consider that aluminum Exit Realty yard signs last longer than any of the other sign materials available.

Aluminum Exit Realty yard signs typically come in .063 and .040 thicknesses and in a variety of standard and custom sizes. These Exit Realty yard signs will not rust when chipped or scratched and they have a beautiful glossy finish.

Ideal for open house signs, hanging signs, directional signs, and Exit Realty yard signs, aluminum is rigid yet lightweight. Aluminum Exit Realty yard signs should last at least 5 years, so buy from a sign company offering at least a 5 year warranty, including a guarantee against rusting and chalking.


Reflective Aluminum

Reflective aluminum is the most costly type of aluminum sign. However, these signs are usually worth the cost because their reflectivity provides superior nighttime visibility. These Exit Realty yard signs have a 3M industrial grade reflective vinyl surface over the .063 thick aluminum that gives off light reflection in the dark. Reflective aluminum Exit Realty yard signs should also last 5 years without chipping or scratching.


Polyethylene

Polyethylene plastic Exit Realty yard signs are inexpensive, lightweight, and weather durable. Their matte finish provides excellent color and ink adhesion.

The negatives of polyethylene plastic Exit Realty yard signs include bowing with age and being transparent at times in bright sunlight. However, the affordable cost of these signs often outweighs the negatives. These Exit Realty yard signs should last at least 3 years when manufactured by a professional sign company.


PVC

PVC plastic Exit Realty yard signs work well. They are rigid and do not bow, but they will scratch easily. PVC Exit Realty yard signs should last at least 3 years and they come with a high gloss finish. The main negative of PVC Exit Realty yard signs is that they become brittle with age.


Cor-X

Cor-X plastic (or corrugated plastic) Exit Realty yard signs are also inexpensive and weatherproof. Like polyethylene, this lightweight material can often appear translucent in bright areas. Available in a bright white that will not yellow with age, Cor-X Exit Realty yard signs should last between 12 and 18 months.
