Shop Signs & Shopfront Fascias
Of all the shop signs a business puts up, the fascia is the street-facing identity — the name, the type and the tone, all read in a glance from the footpath or the road. It has to suit the building, compete with neighbouring signs and stay legible after dark.
We make fascia signs for new shopfronts and refurbs across the Sunshine Coast, from hand-painted and gold-leaf lettering on heritage-character buildings to fabricated and illuminated fascia signage on modern tenancies. Traditional brush-drawn fascias suit older shopfronts where the building itself is part of the brand; laser-cut logos and built-up letters give contemporary premises a crisp, permanent presence.
Because we draw, fabricate and install in-house, the fascia is designed with the actual building in mind — not as a generic panel. We consider sightlines, mounting surfaces, council requirements, lighting and how the sign relates to awnings, windows and neighbouring businesses.
What we make
- Hand-painted fasciasTraditional brush lettering and sign-writing on the shopfront.

- Blade & projecting signsSigns that stick out from the wall so foot traffic sees you coming.
- Window & awning graphicsLettering and graphics that tie the whole shopfront together.
Materials and finishes
Shop signs are made from materials such as aluminium composite panel, acrylic, timber, steel and brass, with exterior-grade paints, vinyls and laminates. On coastal sites we specify fixings and finishes for sun and salt air.
The right choice depends on the look you want, the building and any landlord or council requirements. We'll talk through the options before anything is made.

Questions
Do I need approval for a shop sign?
Often. Shopping centres and landlords usually have signage rules, and some signs need council approval. Check early — we can supply drawings to support it.
Can you replace my existing fascia sign?
Yes. We can remove the old sign, make good the fascia and install the new one.
Hand-painted or fabricated — which is better?
Neither is better; they suit different shopfronts. Our blog compares laser cut and hand-painted signs to help you decide.
Can my shop sign be lit?
Yes. Light boxes and illuminated letters are common for venues that trade after dark. Our illuminated signs guide explains the options.
Do you install?
Yes. Our own team installs what we make, including work at height.
How much does a shop sign cost?
It depends on size, materials, lighting and installation. Send photos and rough measurements and we'll quote.
