We did ours at Ace Hardware in the Spanish Springs shopping plaza.

They came and installed. Multiple options. Ours was a basic one for about $40 to $50 installed. Don’t recalled exact price honestly.

Default Amazon (like everything else)

If you want a classy sign that will last forever and never fade, go on Amazon and order a cast metal one. They come in various finishes and shapes. Last time I checked, they were around $70.

My neighbors ordered theirs from Ace. It’s so faded it’s unreadable. It got that way around 5 years of age.

Another recommendation for Jackie, but before you select a vendor I would suggest that you drive around after dark and check out the signs. While many of the more elaborate picture signs look nice during the day, they are too difficult to read after dark and many of the metal signs are not lit at night and do not have good visibility. Our main reason for getting a lit sign was to make it easier for friends (and EMTs, to be realistic) to find our house after dark so we did day and dark surveys of neighborhood lamp signs to see which ones we liked and were decipherable after dark, then checked to see where they were from.

I think we are ordering our sign through Etsy. We have looked a while and have come to the realization that it’s just a sign.

My sign is of a similar design. It's 1/4 inch thick. "These items are computer routed from High Density Polyethylene. They are not painted and never need painting. They are guaranteed unbreakable and colorfast for many years." After 11 years, it still looks good and hasn't faded. I guess I should wash the tiny bits of mold out of the letters. It faces north. One of these days...

They came out and installed it less than a week after I ordered it. It's a plastic sign but it looks good.
