Reviews for Trimless Channel Letters with Border

★★★★★

Great for our warehouse exterior

Large 36-inch letters on our warehouse wall. No trimcap gives them a cleaner look than our old sign, and the painted returns have held up well in the sun. Fair price for the size.

Sleek and durable

We're right on the coast so I was worried about corrosion. It's been through a full winter of salty wind and still looks brand new. Super clean look with no visible trim.

Emily Sullivan Tidewater Yoga · Virginia Beach, VA
★★★★★

Sharp look and easy mounting

Ordered inset face letters for our building entrance. They look sharp and mounting was straightforward with the provided pattern. Great value and a very clean finished look.

Heather Lawson Lawson Property Management · Columbus, OH
★★★★★

High-end look for a boutique

Our script logo has thin strokes and I was worried it wouldn't translate well. The trimless letters kept every detail. Looks like a sign from a luxury mall.

Sophia Bennett Bennett Bridal Boutique · Savannah, GA
★★★★★

Clean finish and great color match

The inset acrylic faces with the painted border look clean, and the red matched our brand very closely. The letters feel sturdy and the finished sign looks great on our building.
