Custom Cabin, Cottage and Farm Signs Made from Canadian Cedar

Creating Your Custom Signs

When it comes creating a custom sign for your cabin, cottage or farm we have two different methods to suit your needs. Each option has its own advantages when it comes to western red cedar signs.  The first method involves a template for those not sure where to start and the second method works well for those that know exactly what they require.  Either choice gives you options that work within your budget and creativity.

Sign Templates for Custom Wood Signs

For those wanting to create a custom sign but needing a little assistance when it comes to the look of their sign we suggest choosing our Template option.

Just pick one of the sign designs at https://thesigndepotcottagesigns.com/collections/all and click on the preferred image.  When the webpage for that sign loads, fill in the Text on Sign field with the name and/or words you wish to have on that sign.  Above that choose the option of the Single Sided sign price or the Double Sided sign price and then click Add to Cart.  Finish the shipping and payment info and your sign will be shipped to you soon.  This is also a great option for gifts! Whether it is for Christmas, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Valentine’s Day or a Wedding Gift, a custom Canadian cedar sign is always appreciated for any occasion.

Fully Customized Signs

If you need a more customization than our template signs offer, then we suggest our custom crafted western red cedar signs as a better fit.  While they are a higher price-point than our template signs, a fully customized sign can be manufactured by our expert sign makers to fit your needs.  You select the size, shape, colours, images and text that you require on your wood sign and it is made to your specifications.  These signs are fantastic for cottage or cabin signs or for family farm signs to carry on tradition and highlight heritage.  To get started visit our CONTACT US page and email us your request.

Celebrating 25 Years of Cottage Signs With New Digital Strategies

25 Years Creating Custom Wood Signs

This year marks the 25th anniversary of The Sign Depot.  Through the years we have made quality signage and customer service a priority which makes us valuable partner to our clients.  We provide them with signage that best fits their brand and assists with making them recognizable in their industry.  Of all the different materials we use to fabricate signs, the most popular has been our western red cedar signs.  They are a popular choice for exterior signs for our business clients and as cottage signs for our residential customers. They can be spotted across Canada and into the United States.

Innovative Signs and Strategies

With over two decades of sign making experience we have always been on top of sign trends and choose modern day methods to market them.

It began in 2009 when we incorporated a digital strategy to engage current and potential clients through our social media channels on twitter and facebook. That sparked a fresh website and blog.  As new networks came online we found pinterest to be a valuable tool to display our work and company culture. Whether it’s signs or strategies we are always looking to innovate in our industry that is how we connected with Digital Main Street.

The Sign Depot Meets Digital Main Street

Earlier this year we attended a Digital Main Street info presentation at the Waterloo Region Small Business Centre.  There we spoke with Sara Bingham the Entrepreneurship and Technology Advisor for the centre.  We discussed how we could bring our cottage signs to the masses through E-commerce.  Sara understood what we needed and set it all up.  She brought in Digital Main Street representatives to assist with this project. Mansi was the rep. that customized a Shopify E-commerce site for us

and Felipe created a Google 360 of our showroom.

Sara, Mansi and Felipe were fantastic to work with and they really listened to our needs for this project.  Working with the Digital Main Street team was fun and inspiring.  It made us see how can bring our custom wood signs into a modern marketplace and change the way we do business. We believe that our new COTTAGE SIGN site will streamline the process of ordering a custom cottage sign. See how easy it is by following the steps below.

Reinhardt – Carved Cedar Sign

 

Carved Western Red Cedar

This double sided carved cedar sign is a classy way-finding business marker.

Each tenant has their own carved panel allowing the landlord flexibility to update in the event of tenant turnover.

This carved cedar sign features rich coffee brown latex along with both gold and silver leaf guilding. Being that this custom business sign was fabricated from western red cedar, this sign will give longlasting landmark for their business.  Sandblasted Cedar is one of the best choices for an outdoor sign because it is rot-resistant and very durable no matter the weather conditions.  Adding a durable sign finish adds a protective coating for the wood and adds some additional flare to the sign.  Because the sign was custom made it features a carved panel that can allow the landlord flexibility when it comes to updating the tenant listings.  Finding unique sign solutions for business owners is something we specialize in here at The Sign Depot.  Offering options that meet a client’s needs and budget are just some of the ways we have become an award winning sign company. We understand how important a great looking sign can impact a business.  We take the time to listen to our clients and give them ideas of what would best compliment their company. Here at The Sign Depot we work to exceed our clients’ expectation and have an extensive list of repeat customers who gracious enough to refer us to their contacts. That type of word of mouth advertising is something we are very proud of here at Sign Depot and we look forward to hearing how we can help your business shine.
