Engineered Signage
A Complex Problem
Large campus signage needs to do more than identify a location. It must be highly visible, structurally sound, and reliable year-round. For institutions like NAIT, the challenge is creating a landmark that stands tall, looks premium, and maintains even illumination without escalating long-term maintenance costs.
A Simple Solution
Hi Signs engineered a custom illuminated sign for NAIT standing over 20 feet tall. Built with commercial-grade materials and precision LED lighting, the sign was designed to deliver maximum visibility with clean, even illumination. Its aluminum structure and high-performance finishes were selected to withstand Alberta weather while maintaining the integrity of NAIT’s brand.
The Result
More than a decade later, the sign still performs beautifully. The illumination remains smooth with no hot spots or dark zones, and the structure shows minimal wear despite harsh conditions. This project demonstrates how thoughtful engineered signage and quality construction can deliver a landmark that looks great and operates reliably for years.
