Exterior Business Signs

Banners & Temporary Signage

When you need visibility fast, banners and temporary signs are the most affordable way to get your message out. Whether it’s a grand opening, a sale or event, or a “coming soon” before your permanent sign is up, we can get your business on the right track. Riverbend Signworks designs, creates, and installs custom vinyl banners for businesses across the Quad Cities and surrounding areas, on durable material that stays bright and holds up outdoors for as long as you need it.

Common uses: grand openings, sales and promotions, events and fundraisers, real estate, job sites, and “now open” messaging.

Flat Panel Signs

Flat panel signs are the clean, cost-effective workhorse of exterior signage: a single flat face carrying your logo and message that gives your business a professional look without a big investment. Because they are simple to make and mount, they are one of the fastest, most affordable ways to brand a building, mark an entrance, or add clear directional information. We design, create, and install flat panel signs for businesses across the Quad Cities and surrounding areas, such as Geneseo and Clinton.

Common uses: building and entrance signage, directories, directional and informational panels, and budget-conscious storefront branding.

Channel Letters

Channel letters are individually made, dimensional letters mounted to your building or a raceway (which attaches to your building), and they are the storefront upgrade customers notice first. They are usually illuminated, so your name reads clearly in daylight and glows after dark, which is why they are a favorite for retail, restaurants, and offices that depend on curb visibility. We design, create, and install channel letters throughout the Quad Cities, from Davenport and Bettendorf to East Moline and Rock Island, matched to your building and brand.

Common uses: retail and restaurant storefronts, office and medical buildings, shopping centers, and multi-tenant properties.

Dimensional Letters

Dimensional letters give you the depth and shadow line of channel letters without the illumination: precise, individually mounted letters and logos that add a crisp, architectural look to a building face, entrance, or monument. They are an ideal middle ground when you want real dimension and a premium feel at a lower cost than lit letters, and they work as well outdoors as they do in a lobby. We design, create, and install dimensional letters for businesses across the Quad Cities and surrounding areas.

Common uses: building faces and entrances, monument and pylon faces, corporate offices, and professional suites.

Cabinet Signs

A cabinet sign, or box sign, holds your name and logo in a single, illuminated face: a clean, cost-effective way to get a bright, professional storefront or pylon sign that stands out day and night. Because the face can be updated without replacing the whole sign, cabinet signs are a practical choice for multi-tenant buildings, shopping centers, and businesses that expect to rebrand. We design, create, and install cabinet signs across the Quad Cities and surrounding areas.

Common uses: storefronts, shopping centers, multi-tenant buildings, pylon and pole signs, and businesses planning to rebrand.

Electronic Message Centers (EMCs)

An electronic message center is a programmable LED display that lets you change your message in real time, from one screen, so you can promote a sale today and an event tomorrow without ordering new signage. EMCs are one of the most effective ways to turn a busy road into steady visibility, which is why they are popular with retailers, banks, schools, churches, and dealerships. We help you choose the right display for your location and goals, then design, create, and install it across the QCA – from Silvis to Buffalo and everywhere in-between.

Common uses: high-traffic retail, banks and credit unions, schools and churches, dealerships, and community signage.

Monument Signs

Monument signs sit at ground level near your entrance or drive, anchoring your property and setting the tone before a customer ever reaches the door. Often illuminated or paired with an electronic message center, a monument sign is one of the highest-impact investments a business, church, school, office, or park can make in its curb presence, and it is built to last outdoors for years. We design, create, and install monument signs throughout the Quad Cities in Davenport, Bettendorf, Moline, and Rock Island, and across the surrounding areas.

Common uses: offices, parks and campuses, churches and schools, medical and professional buildings, retail centers, and neighborhood entrances.

Post & Panel Signs

Post-and-panel signs mount one or more panels between posts, a versatile and budget-friendly option for streets, parking lots, entrances, real estate, and multi-tenant directories. They go up quickly, stand up to the weather, and can be updated panel by panel as tenants or messaging change, which makes them a smart pick for properties that need clear, affordable signage in more than one spot. We design, create, and install custom post and panel signs across the Quad Cities and surrounding areas.

Common uses: multi-tenant and office parks, real estate and development, parking and lot signage, apartment and community entrances, and wayfinding.

Wayfinding Signs

Wayfinding and directional signs guide people through your property, parking, entrances, building numbers, accessible routes, and departments, so first-time visitors never feel lost. A coordinated wayfinding system looks professional, cuts confusion and incoming calls to your front desk, and keeps directional and accessible signage consistent across a campus or building. We design, create, and install exterior (and interior) wayfinding and directional signage for businesses, campuses, and facilities throughout the Quad Cities and surrounding areas.

Common uses: medical and office campuses, schools and universities, apartment and retail complexes, parking structures, and large facilities.

Awnings

Awnings are a versatile outdoor structure that come with a wide range of benefits for your business and even residence. They offer practical benefits and aesthetic appeal, and here at Riverbend Signworks, we want to make sure your awnings not only look great, but serve a purpose for your business.We design, create, and install awnings for businesses, campuses, and facilities throughout the Quad Cities and surrounding areas.

Common uses: restaurants, cafes, downtown businesses, bars, and venues
