A monument sign sits at eye level, right where customers turn in, so it tells people they have arrived and sets the tone for your property before anyone reaches the door. It advertises around the clock, and a well-designed sign often becomes a local landmark people use when giving directions. A monument sign also signals permanence: it shows a business is established and invested in its location.

A monument sign is a low-profile, freestanding sign placed at the entrance of a property. It displays the business or building name and logo, and sometimes the address, tenants or contact details.
Most monument signs are around 5 feet tall. Larger ones, like those in front of hotels or hospitals, usually run 8 to 12 feet.
Height and purpose. Monument signs are ground-level and eye-height, and they suit single-tenant properties. Pylon signs usually start around 20 feet tall, can be seen from a distance, and are common where tenants share sign space, like plazas and business parks. Compare pylon and monument signs.
Common materials include brick, stone, block, concrete, metal, wood and high-density foam. Masonry bases are among the most durable options and also among the more expensive.
