Retail Store Signs and Graphics in Aiken, SC

The Aiken Sign Co. makes retail signs in Aiken for shop owners who want the letters on the wall, the vinyl on the glass and the banner for opening day from one local crew. We design it, build it and install it at your storefront, so your shop looks open for business from the parking lot.

Your Whole Shop Front From One Crew

Retail signs in Aiken have one job: get a shopper to turn in and walk through your door. We make every piece of that trip, from the name on the building to the lettering on the glass and the graphics inside. You deal with one local crew, and your shop looks like one shop.

Take The Vintage Bobbin, where we put new cut letters on a shopping-center wall. That is the kind of work we are proud to put our own name behind.

Everything Your Storefront Needs

Opening your first shop, or giving an old one a new face? We work from the logo you have or help you build one. Because we bring the shop to you, measurements and design talk happen at your storefront.

Fit for Your Street

Aiken shopping runs from the shops on Laurens Street downtown to the retail along Whiskey Road and Richland Avenue. Retail is also one of Aiken County’s largest employment sectors, so your neighbors are working for the same customers. A clear, well-made sign gives you an edge at the turn-in.

We also serve storefronts across Aiken, shops around Knox Avenue and Edgefield Road in North Augusta, and retail in Augusta.

Sized to Your Wall and Your Zoning

Local rules shape what goes on a shop front, and we bring them into the design. In the City of Aiken, wall signs may cover up to 20% of the front surface and project no more than 18 inches. In the Downtown Business zone, portable sidewalk signs are allowed up to 4 feet tall, 2 feet wide and 6 square feet, if they come in when the business closes. Ribbons, streamers and pennants are prohibited in the city, so ask us what can do that job at your address instead.

A permit or review may be required for your shop sign, so confirm with City of Aiken planning, or Aiken County for addresses outside the city. We handle sign permits and paperwork on most exterior jobs.

Free Quotes for Every Size of Shop

Your quote is free with no obligation, whether you want one line of lettering or the whole front done. Size, materials, how many pieces you need and how much design work is left all shape it. Our sign cost guide gives planning figures while you work out your opening budget.

Common questions

Can you do the sign and the window graphics together?
Yes. We handle storefront signs, cut letters and window graphics as one job, so the whole front matches.
My landlord has rules for signs. Can you work with them?
Yes. Tell us what the shopping center asks for and we will design around it. A permit or review may also be required, so confirm with the city or county office for your address.
Do you make banners for a grand opening?
Yes. Banners and temporary signs are part of what we do, and local rules on temporary signs vary, so confirm with your city or county office.
I do not have a logo yet. Can you help?
Yes. Design is part of the job, and that includes logos, with a proof for you to check first.
