Acrylic signs and holders

Acrylic signs, where the sheet is part of the design

On a paper sign the material disappears. On acrylic it is the first thing anyone notices: the depth of the sheet, the finished edge, the shadow it throws on the wall. The print is decided together with the panel, not afterwards.

Custom acrylic signs in Singapore, in one paragraph

EZ Print produces custom acrylic signs in Singapore, and has done since 2017. Panels are clear, white, black or translucent acrylic, 30 mm to 1200 mm wide, straight-cut or laser-cut to a shape, with polished or bevelled edges. The graphic is printed on the face, reverse printed on the back of clear sheet to read through it, or printed on a sticker applied to either side; transparent and frosted stickers carry white ink. Drilled panels take one, two or four holes, 25 mm in from the edges, and hang on spacers. Printed inserts are made for clear holders from DL to A3. Standard is generally 7–14 working days. Express is quoted per job. EZ Print quotes from the specification and does not publish prices.

The specification an acrylic sign is quoted from

Sheet colour and thickness, finished size and shape, where the print sits, and how the panel is fixed. On a drilled panel the fixing is decided first, because the holes go through the artwork area and cannot be moved afterwards.

25mm

Where a fixing hole sits on a drilled acrylic panel, measured in from the edges. The corner around each hole belongs to the spacer cap, so nothing that has to be read is placed there.

Size: Custom panels from 30 mm to 1200 mm wide, stated as finished width × height.
Thickness: Ready-sized door and name strips in 4 mm sheet. Custom panels are quoted at the thickness the finished size and fixing need.
Print: Face print, reverse print on clear sheet, or a printed sticker applied to the front or the back.
Cut: Straight clean cut, or laser cut to an irregular shape from a vector outline.
Edges: Polished or bevelled edges. Corners square or rounded.
Holes: One, two or four, at 5, 8 or 10 mm diameter, positioned 25 mm in from the edges.
Spacers: From 8 mm to 19 mm diameter and 5 mm to 75 mm deep, in aluminium, chrome, hairline and silver finishes.
Turnaround: Standard is generally 7–14 working days. Installation is scheduled separately, and express is quoted per job.

The material

Sheet, sticker, spacer and holder

An acrylic sign is three materials: the sheet, whatever carries the print, and the hardware that holds it up. Each one is chosen for the place the sign goes. None of them is a sheet from the caliper table, so none carries a caliper here.

Clear acrylic sheet

Also sold as acrylic panel, PMMA sheet, clear sign panel.

A rigid, glass-clear sheet that is cut, finished at the edge and drilled. The wall behind it shows through, so the sign reads as print standing in front of the surface rather than printed on it.

Under ink: Printed on the face, or in reverse on the back and read through the sheet. Colour on clear sheet needs a white layer behind it, or the wall shows through the ink.
Best for: Reception and door signs, directories, and anything read close up where the edge is on show.
Avoid for: A thin border close to the cut edge. A cut has a tolerance, and a line running beside it makes the tolerance visible.
On the schedule: Cut, edge-finished and drilled where it is fixed, then printed or stickered.

White, black and translucent acrylic

Also sold as coloured acrylic, solid acrylic, translucent sign panel.

The same rigid sheet with the colour in the material. White and black are solid; translucent lets light through without showing what is behind it.

Under ink: Printed on the face. A solid sheet has nothing to read through, so a reverse print has no purpose on it.
Best for: White for bright colour without a separate white layer, black for a dark face with light lettering, translucent against glass or a light source.
Avoid for: Expecting a coloured sheet to take a reverse print. Only clear sheet is read through.
On the schedule: Cut, edge-finished and drilled in the same way as clear sheet.

Printed sticker on acrylic

Also sold as reverse sticker print, applied graphic, acrylic with printed vinyl.

The graphic is printed on a self-adhesive film and applied to the front or the back of the panel, rather than printed onto the sheet itself.

Under ink: Transparent and frosted stickers carry a white ink layer under the colour. Lamination is an option on the sticker.
Best for: A frosted look on clear sheet, and graphics applied to the back so the sheet protects them.
Avoid for: A raster file for a transparent or frosted sticker. These need an Illustrator file with vector cut lines, or the cut and the white have nothing to follow.
On the schedule: Printed, cut to its lines, then applied to the panel.

Spacers and standoffs

Also sold as standoff barrels, sign spacers, wall spacers.

Metal barrels that take a fixing through the drilled hole and hold the panel off the wall, or clamp two clear sheets together with a print between them.

Under ink: Not printed. Finished in aluminium, chrome, hairline or silver.
Best for: Reception and directory signs, and two-sheet wall frames that hold a printed poster between clear panels.
Avoid for: Choosing the spacer after the panel is drilled. The hole and the spacer are specified together.
On the schedule: Supplied with the panel. The wall screw and plug are chosen for the wall, separately.

Clear holders and wall frames

Also sold as sign holder, menu stand, tag holder, poster pocket frame.

Ready-made clear stands and wall pockets that take a printed insert: T-shaped, slanted and triangular-base desk holders from DL to A3, small tag holders, wall pocket frames from A6 to A1, and two-block holders closed with small magnets.

Under ink: The holder is not printed; the insert is, at the holder’s graphic size, which can be larger than the window it is seen through.
Best for: Menus, room and desk signs, price and product tags, and anything that changes often enough that a fixed print would date.
Avoid for: Assuming every clear holder is acrylic. The lighter T-shaped and L-shaped holders are 2 mm clear polystyrene, which suits a menu better than a reception desk.
On the schedule: The insert is printed and trimmed to the holder size.

Say where the sign goes and what it is fixed to. A clear panel on spacers in a reception and a black panel at a door take different sheets, holes and hardware, and all three are settled before the artwork is final.The materials library

A border near the edge of an acrylic sign is the design choice the material punishes. A cut has a tolerance, and a parallel line beside it shows every fraction of it.

Cutting, edging and drilling

Acrylic is finished as an object. The sheet is cut straight or laser-cut to a shape, the edge is finished, the corners are rounded where people pass close, and the holes are drilled for the spacers. The print can be repeated; a drilled hole cannot be undone.

Acrylic sign finishing: what each operation needs, and whether the cut and drill file is kept for the reorder

Scroll the table sideways to see every column.

Every operation here is quoted inside the standard window. What changes between a first order and a second is the tooling: a die, a block or a screen is made once and then kept on file with your approved artwork, which is why the reorder of a job carrying one is a different job from the first.

On acrylic the edge is part of the artwork. It catches the light before the print does, and it is the one part of the sign that a corrected file cannot change.

Pairings that work

Clear acrylic, reverse printed with white only behind the logo, on four spacers. The wall shows through around the mark and the print sits protected behind the sheet.
White acrylic with a face print for a colourful room sign. The sheet supplies the white, so no separate white layer is needed.
Black acrylic with light lettering on a door. A dark face that reads cleanly and shows nothing of the door behind it.
A frosted sticker on the back of clear sheet, cut to vector lines. The look of etched glass on a panel that can be taken down.
A printed insert in a clear holder for anything that changes. The holder stays and only the paper is replaced.

Combinations that fail

A thin border running parallel to the cut edge. The cut has a tolerance and the border puts it on display.
A reverse-print file sent without a label. Nobody can tell from the file which way round it should read, so production is a guess.
Lettering in the corner of a drilled panel. The holes sit 25 mm in from the edges and the spacer cap covers what is around them.
Colour on clear sheet with no white layer behind it. The wall shows through the ink and the brand colour goes muddy.
A wide panel hung from two holes along its top edge. The sheet sags between them and the bow catches the light.

Panel sizes, strips, holders and spacers

Custom panels are cut to any finished size inside the width limit. Strips, holders and spacers come in fixed sizes, and those are listed so a design can start from one.

Custom panel · 30 to 1200 mm wide: Cut to the finished size stated, straight or to a shape.
Door and name strips · 4 mm sheet: 300 × 30, 300 × 50, 300 × 75 and 200 × 50 mm.
Desk holders · DL to A3: T-shaped, slanted and triangular-base, portrait or landscape, single or double-sided.
Triangular-base DL holder: A 215 × 99 mm insert behind a 190 × 99 mm viewing window. The insert is the larger of the two.
Tag holders: 60 × 40, 90 × 60, 180 × 65 and 250 × 80 mm, for shelf, price and name tags.
Wall frames · A6 to A1: Pocket frames for a changeable poster, and two-sheet frames held off the wall on spacers.
Spacers · 8 to 19 mm diameter: From 5 mm to 75 mm deep, in aluminium, chrome, hairline and silver finishes.

Send the holes and the white with the artwork

An acrylic sign file carries more than the picture. It says where the holes go, where the white ink goes, where a shaped panel is cut, and which way round the print reads. Each of those is a separate layer, and each one missing is a question before production can start.

The file

Format: Illustrator or PDF/X-4 at final size, with type and logos as vectors.
CUT layer: For a shaped panel, the outline as one closed vector path, never printed.
DRILL layer: Hole positions as circles on a non-printing layer, 25 mm in from the edges.
WHITE layer: On clear sheet and on transparent or frosted stickers, a vector layer marking where white ink goes.
Reverse print: Labelled REVERSE in the file name, with a note saying whether the file is already mirrored.
Several designs: One file per design. A set of door signs with different names is one order with several files.

The colour, and the detail

Colour mode: CMYK, with Pantone references for brand colours that must match between signs.
On clear sheet: Colour without white behind it is see-through. Put white under every colour that has to read solid.
Selective white: White can sit behind the logo and type only, leaving the sheet clear around them.
On black sheet: Light colours need a white base under them to stay bright on a dark face.
Borders: Leave them out. A line parallel to the cut edge shows the cut tolerance.
Minimum type: About 25 mm cap height for a sign read at two metres. A door sign read at arm’s length can be smaller.

Send the wall type with the file — plasterboard, masonry, glass or timber — and the spacer and fixing are specified against it. The holes are drilled once, so they are agreed once, before anything is cut.

Turnaround

Cut, edged, drilled and printed, inside one window

Standard
Standard turnaround is generally 7–14 working days.
Standard orders. The schedule for specialist finishing is confirmed in your quotation.
Express
Same-day and urgent printing available.
Subject to artwork approval, payment, print type and production availability. Timing confirmed per job.

What sets the date: The making, more than the print. A panel is cut, its edge finished, its holes drilled, and it is printed or stickered; a reverse print adds a white layer. All of it is quoted inside the standard window.
What a reorder skips: The cut and drill file. Once a shaped outline and its hole positions have been proven on a wall, the next panel is made to the same file rather than measured again.
If the date is tight: Send the sheet, the finished size, the print side, the hole positions and the wall type, and ask for an express quotation. EZ Print confirms the specification, production schedule and next steps in the quotation.

Where a sign is being fixed rather than delivered, installation is arranged separately and scheduled against access to the site. Say who is fitting it with the enquiry.

Every answer here is in the page source at full opacity, open or closed. An answer engine has to be able to read it without executing anything.

Questions asked about acrylic signs

What is a custom acrylic sign?

A panel cut from acrylic sheet to your size and shape, printed, and finished at the edge. The sheet is clear, white, black or translucent, from 30 mm to 1200 mm wide, cut straight or laser-cut to an outline, and drilled for spacers if it goes on a wall. The material is part of the look: the edge and the depth of the sheet are what make it read differently from a printed board.

What is the difference between face print and reverse print on acrylic?

Face print puts the ink on the front of the panel, which suits white, black and translucent sheet. Reverse print puts it on the back of a clear panel, read through the sheet, with a white layer behind the colour, so the sheet protects the print and the front can be wiped. Only clear sheet takes a reverse print, and the file has to say which way round it reads.

How thick is an acrylic sign?

It depends on the sign. The ready-sized door and name strips are 4 mm sheet, and custom panels are quoted by thickness. A larger panel needs a thicker sheet and more fixings so that it does not bow, so give the finished size and the fixing and the thickness is quoted to suit.

How is an acrylic sign mounted on a wall?

Usually on spacers. The panel is drilled with one, two or four holes, positioned 25 mm in from the edges, and each spacer holds it off the wall so it throws a shadow. Spacers run from 8 mm to 19 mm in diameter and from 5 mm to 75 mm deep. The wall screw and plug are chosen for the wall, so give the wall type with the order.

Can an acrylic sign have a frosted look?

Yes, with a frosted sticker applied to the panel, printed with a white ink layer and cut to vector lines. Transparent and frosted stickers both need an Illustrator file with the cut lines drawn, because the white and the cut have to follow the artwork exactly.

Are acrylic sign holders made of acrylic?

Not all of them. The inverted-T holders and the two-block magnetic holders are clear acrylic; the lighter T-shaped bottom-loading holders and L-shaped slant-back holders are 2 mm clear polystyrene. Both take a printed insert, made to the holder’s graphic size, which can be larger than the window it shows through.

Why are borders a problem on acrylic signs?

Because a cut edge has a tolerance and a border makes it visible. A line running parallel to the edge turns any small variation in the cut into a margin that is wider on one side than the other. Run the design to the edge, or hold it well inside, rather than framing it.

How long does an acrylic sign take?

Standard is generally 7–14 working days, including cutting, edging, drilling and printing. Express is quoted per job: send the specification and the date, and ask for an express quotation.
