The Log Cabin Sign Making a posts-&-panel sign to match an on-premise building.

hen the owner of a log cabinbased business called Preferred Insulation Inc., approached sign maker Chris Eppolito about building a double-sided, posts-and-panel identity sign for his front premises, Eppolito knew this would be an ideal opportunity to do something not only dimensional but also unique. The solution: A sign that would match the look of the log cabin. The customer wanted to use the “maximum” amount of square footage allowed by the city for the sign. The finished 40-inch-tall-by-88inch-wide sign consists of 9-inch-diameter, 10-foot-tall log posts and 3/4-inch plywood sandwiched between “log cabin” siding. “This customer really wanted to keep the log cabin theme throughout his property,” explains Eppolito.

Eppolito Signs created a unique posts-and-panel sign that matched a business’ log cabin theme. The sign was constructed from wood, acrylic, and stainless steel hardware and brackets.
