What Are Our Custom Traffic Road Signs Made From?

While traffic signs are old enough to originally be made from wood or even stone, at Sign It Quick, our traffic signs are made with high-grade steel or aluminum to ensure a sign with longevity.

Since traffic signs are the key to creating a safe environment for people to drive and walk, the last thing we want is for a traffic sign to break easily or weather, resulting in poorly marked areas and potential motor accidents. Sign It Quick makes all of our traffic signs out of the same, high-quality material as commercially made traffic signs.

When life is so precious, the utilization of well-made traffic signs helps keep pedestrians and motorists safe.

Why Are Traffic Signs So Important?

Driving automobiles gives people power that comes with great responsibility, and traffic signs help establish drivers’ responsibilities.

Through careful inspection of roadways and their characteristics, traffic signs help drivers know what to expect of road conditions and then conduct themselves with that knowledge in mind. This is especially true in areas with a high number of pedestrians, such as in residential neighborhoods, school grounds, or shopping centers.

Since signage is essential for safety on our roads, it is crucial that all traffic road signs are properly installed. When improperly installed, traffic signs can be dangerous to vehicles and pedestrians alike. Proper installation is important, especially if you are making an investment in custom traffic signs for your business. When you request a quote for your custom road signs, ask us about the proper installation process, and let us point you in the right direction.

Generic Road Traffic Signs

In addition to creating custom road traffic signs, Sign It Quick also creates generic traffic signs, including stop signs, directional signs, speed limit signs, parking signs, and more.

These signs can be utilized across the US with proper approval from the Department of Transportation.

Traffic Signs and Meanings: A Quick Guide

Are you familiar with traffic signs and the meanings behind traffic signs?

If you are, you may know that the colors of traffic signs define their meaning.

This key can help you understand traffic signs and the meanings of some of their colors:

Red: A red traffic sign indicates mandatory action for a driver.
Yellow: A yellow traffic sign serves as a warning for motorists to exercise caution.
Orange: An orange sign informs drivers of construction happening in the area. This could include roadwork, building, or general maintenance of roads, bridges, and surrounding areas.
Blue: Blue signs can often be found on the side of highways or interstates to let drivers know which services are available at their next exit.
Neon Yellow/Neon Green: The common, fluorescent colored sign is a glowing indication of a school zone.

Why Traffic Signs Are So Important

Traffic signs are important for setting expectations for law-abiding drivers to follow, indicated by the Department of Transportation (DOT) from the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).

Traffic road signs play a vital role in keeping order on our roadways. Custom traffic signs create the same sense of security as seeing a stop sign at a 4-way intersection, a two-way traffic sign where the road splits, or a flashing traffic light at a busy intersection. These indicators are the rulers of safety on our roadways and deserve to be made out of materials that last, in a timely manner, by professional people who get the job done right.
