, though they are thin, light inweight, and obviously metallic, don't always have to be silver. In fact, they seldom are.Factories that produce aluminum sheets for custom aluminum signs actually make sheetsof aluminum in a variety of colors, including black, yellow, green, blue, orange, and red,in addition to a few metallic colors. So the background of your aluminum sign can havean authentic metal surface while boasting a vivid color of interest.Don't see the color you want for your aluminum sign on the list?

Aluminum Signs Can Be Made Into The Size and ShapeYou Want
 Not all aluminum sheeting is alike. For example, because the aluminum sheets are used tomake aluminum signs of different sizes and for different purposes, they come in differentgauges of thickness. The thinnest gauge of aluminum sheeting is .040" thick. Aluminumsigns of this gauge are used for smaller signs, such as standard 18" x 24" aluminum signs.Real estate signs often fall into this category. Factories make aluminum sheeting in thecolors listed above only in this gauge, however. Other custom aluminum signs popular inthis thickness category are wall mounted signs up to 2' x 4' or even 4' x 10' in some cases,though larger aluminum signs in .040" thickness need to be especially secured flat againsta wall to prevent bending and warping.If you need a larger aluminum sign, some sheets also come in .063" and .080", thethickest available. Most road signs you would see along the interstate are aluminum signsof .080" thickness. These types of aluminum signsare often mounted on posts or along asurface with sturdy hardware. The only factory color they come in, however, is white.
