Signage That Works as Hard as You Do

A great sign does more than mark your location. It tells people who you are before they ever walk through your door. Gator Graphics has been designing and building custom signs for Missouri businesses since 1998, and we handle every step ourselves, from design and fabrication to permitting and installation.

Types of Signs We Build

Pole Signs

Pole signs, also known as pylon signs, are free-standing displays attached to one or more poles. This type of sign puts your business in front of traffic from a distance, which makes them one of the most effective tools for roadside visibility. We design and fabricate pole signs in a range of sizes and styles, with options for illumination, digital displays, and multi-tenant panels for shopping centers and business parks. Built to withstand Missouri weather and engineered to meet local code and wind load requirements.

Monument Signs

Monument signs are ground-level signs typically used to display one or more business names and logos. They offer a low-profile, upscale alternative to pole signs and are a popular choice for strip malls, office parks, medical buildings, schools, and retail centers. We build monument signs using durable materials like aluminum, foam-core EPS, brick, and stone veneer, with options for illuminated panels and dimensional lettering. A well-designed monument sign adds curb appeal while clearly identifying your business or development.

Interior Signs

First impressions do not stop at the front door. Interior signage, including lobby signs, ADS signage, directories, wayfinding systems, room identification, and dimensional letter displays, helps visitors navigate your space and reinforces your brand the moment they walk in. We design interior signage to match your building's architecture and your brand standards.

LED Illuminated Signs

Illuminated signage extends your visibility well after the sun goes down. We build backlit and halo-lit signs using durable LED illumination for pole signs, monument signs, and building-mounted signage. Looking for a programmable digital display instead?

Signage Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between a pole sign and a monument sign?

    A pole sign is mounted on one or more poles and sits higher off the ground, making it ideal for roadside visibility from a distance. A monument sign is a low, ground-level structure, often built with masonry or decorative materials, and is typically used where a business wants a more upscale, low-profile look. Gator Graphics builds both, and we can help you decide which fits your location and local sign codes.


  • Do I need a permit for a new pole or monument sign?


  • Can you build illuminated signs?

    Yes. We offer illuminated pole signs, monument signs, and building-mounted signage using LED lighting for backlit and halo-lit effects. If you are interested in a programmable digital sign rather than static illumination, visit our Electronic Message Centers page.


  • How long does it take to design and install a custom sign?

    Describe the item or answer the question so that site visitors who are interested get more information. You can emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.

  • Do you build interior signs for offices and schools?

    Yes. We design and fabricate interior signage including lobby signs, directories, wayfinding systems, and room identification signs for offices, schools, medical facilities, and other commercial spaces.
