SIGNS & LIGHTING
Commercial signs & lighting, built and installed by one team
From channel letters to LED message centers, we design, fabricate, permit and install commercial signage across the Mid-Atlantic — one vendor for fabrication, electrical, crane and permitting.
SIGN TYPES
Signage for every application

Electric & Lit Signs
Illuminated signage built in our Accokeek shop to UL standards, permitted in your jurisdiction, and installed by licensed, insured crews — so your storefront works as hard at 9 PM as it does at noon.

Channel Letters
The storefront standard for a reason: dimensional, illuminated letters that read from the road day and night. We fabricate, wire, permit and install them under one contract.

LED Message Centers
Change your message from your phone in seconds. As a Watchfire LED sign vendor, we size, permit, build and install programmable LED displays — and we explain the warranty fine print before you buy.

Monument & Pylon Signs
Your entrance sign is the first impression of the whole property. We handle it from survey and footing design to crane set and landscaping clean-up.

Dimensional Letters & Lobby Signs
Depth, shadow and finish turn a logo into an architectural feature. We cut and finish dimensional letters for lobbies, reception walls and building facades.

Full-service capability
Most signage projects involve three or four vendors — a fabricator, an electrician, a crane company and a permit runner. We handle all of it under one contract. For facilities managers running multi-location rollouts, that means one contract, one point of contact and no coordination risk.

- Permits — municipal, county, state & HOA
- Town review board meetings
- Sign engineering & wind-load calculations
- Crane service for high-rise & pylon installs
- Electrical connections & UL-standard wiring

- Service, re-lamping & LED retrofits

ONE VENDOR, START TO FINISH
One team manages your project from survey to sign-off.
Most sign projects involve a fabricator, an electrician, a crane company and a permit runner. Empire handles all of it under one contract — one project manager, one schedule and one company accountable for the result. National sign companies trust us to manage installs for their own clients.
