I am in need of a company that provides sinage holders. First of all its kind of a rush thing. Second it's probably an off size but I can make minor adjustments to the sign itself to fit the holder.
I guess it is kind of like a JRS type holder where the sign just slides right in.
Making signs out of 1/16th rowmark. Sample size is 7.5 x 4.375. I am not looking for anything fancy just like a black holder that you could screw into the wall and slide the sign in. I can change dimensions a bit but if i remember right the last time I tried to get black it was a special order. I need these sooner than that.
Secondly and not as urgent. Someone who I can sub some work out to for signage that is to be outdoors. I will post a pic and it appears to be like a cast aluminum of sorts. Kinda like they do the bronze type signs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know that Ability Plastics used to carry JRS signage items. They had a single holder rail like the top and bottom of a desk sign holder. You just mounted them the proper distance apart. Black I do not remember, just gold. But that was also many years ago.

You can try Pella Engraving for the cast sign.

Jeff,
JRS or New Hermes is the best bet for the type of sign holder you are looking for. Unfortunately, anything custom sized is 2-3 weeks out. There are many suppliers who offer their product. Johnson Plastics may have the broadest selection of inventoried sizes.
On your other question, Gemini Plaques is an excellent supplier to contact for acid etched signage in brass, stainless, bronze, aluminum. zinc and magnesium.
Gemini is great at making it easy to do business with them.
They have a high quality product that is shipped in well-thought-out packaging to avoid damage. They are my go-to company for this type of item.
