If you’ve been trying to improve your outdoor visibility but aren’t sure which signage type will give you the clarity you need, you’re not alone. Many Portland businesses face the same challenge: high foot traffic, fast-moving cars, and limited space to convey their message clearly.
At the same time, branding expectations keep rising, and property managers are looking for signage that enhances the look of their space, not just fills it. OC Sign Group specializes in post and panel signs that fit this gap, building solutions for businesses that want something simple, durable, and professional.
Post and panel signs are a straightforward and durable way to present your brand outdoors. These signs work well for commercial spaces, business parks, and wayfinding structures because they’re easy to read and built to last. They’re also a practical choice for real estate, construction sites, or organizations that need clear directional signage.
Our team builds custom post signage in Portland for companies that want clean branding and dependable outdoor visibility. Whether you’re updating your existing sign system or setting up signage for a new location, commercial post signs give you a flexible format to work with. They can be customized to match your colors, logo, and overall style, while still maintaining a professional look that blends well with Portland’s local architecture.

Post and panel signs are versatile outdoor signs mounted between two posts, commonly used for property identification, wayfinding, real estate listings, construction sites, building entrances, parking lot directions, and commercial property branding. They work well when you need eye-level visibility and professional on-site signage.
We create fully custom post and panel signs tailored to your logo, colors, fonts, and graphics. You can choose from various materials, sizes, shapes, and even add illumination options. Whether you need a simple directional sign or a statement piece for your property, we’ll design it to represent your brand.
Commercial pole signs (or pylon signs) are tall, elevated structures designed for long-distance visibility—ideal for highways and high-traffic roads. Post and panel signs are lower, eye-level displays used for on-site branding, wayfinding, and entrance identification. Many businesses use both together to maximize visibility from afar and at ground level.
