Custom ARMOUR-Wood Signs
With the strength of a traditional wood sign, with an added high gloss aluminum covering for a finish that will last, ARMOUR-Wood Signs truly are the best of both worlds.
ARMOUR-Wood Signs (previously known as Nu-Alum Signs) from SignsUS.com have a solid, plywood core permanently sealed with aluminum sheeting factory bonded to both sides of the surface. The thickness and density of this sign board makes it one of the strongest sign panel products in the industry with greater impact and wind resistance than Alumalite, Alumacorr, Dibond or Wood Painted Sign Panels.
The Aluminum sheet bonded to the solid wood core comes with a high gloss finish. All edges of the sign are sealed with a plastic 1/2" cap which not only protects the product from moisture, but also creates a finished look. When using a contrasting color like black edge cap on a white sign, the black edge cap automatically serves as a decorative 1/2" border on the sign. If you don't want a border on your white sign, choose white trim cap instead so the trim cap will blend in.
When you need a sturdy rigid sign panel designed to last for many years outdoors, ARMOUR-Wood is highly recommended for permanent , construction site signs, real estate signs, wall mounted signs, post and panel signs, hanging and fence mount signs.

Frequently Asked Questions About ARMOUR-Wood Signs
The ARMOUR-Wood material itself will usually outlast the artwork on your sign. Our uncoated Economy Grade Signs are rated to last up to 3 years outdoors while our Premium Grade Signs coated with an optically clear, UV Protective Lamination are rated to last 6-8 years outdoors. ARMOUR-Wood signs can last for decades indoors.
Caution:
During handling and installation, extreme care must be exercised. The painted metal sign finish is not as scratch resistant as you might think. Although ARMOUR-Wood is highly weather and fade resistant, the paint can be easily scratched if you're not careful.
When cleaning the surface, only use a mild soapy water solution and the softest cloth you can find. Don't use dry paper towels as they can put extremely fine scratches in the paint which may be visible up close.
Please Note:
The manufacturer of ARMOUR-Wood has done an exceedingly poor job of letting sign companies know how important it is to seal the wood edges properly. While this may seem like common sense, the "fine print" on the manufacturer's website also warns that their "warranty is null and void if their product is not sealed with their proprietary sealer".
In order to keep the manufacturer's warranty valid, we only use the recommended sealer as a watertight moisture barrier. When combined with the plastic edge capping, ARMOUR-Wood is guaranteed not to delaminate for five (5) full years!
Unfortunately, most sign companies are simply not aware of this warranty condition and fail to use the proper sealant which could lead to premature failure of their signs (and warranty), even though they use the same sign material!
