Totem Signage, Made Properly
A well-designed totem sign needs to do more than look good. As a permanent outdoor structure, it must be suitable for its location, withstand the elements and remain secure throughout its service life.
We consider everything from the size and construction of the sign to its supporting structure, foundations and installation requirements. Site conditions, exposure to wind and the presence of underground services can all influence how a totem is designed and installed.
Whether you’re replacing an existing sign or planning a new installation, our experienced team can help you develop a practical, professional solution, with appropriate structural and foundation requirements established for the project.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a totem sign?
A sign totem is a tall, freestanding structure – almost like a pylon – and features multiple sign faces that are stacked vertically.Â
Retail park totem signs will have numerous brands listed on individual sign faces, which can be easily replaced when businesses move in and out of the park.
These signs are commonly placed near entrances to business and retail parks as well as school signs for larger campuses.
What materials are used for totem and monolith signs?
Totem and monolith signs can be manufactured using a range of durable materials, including aluminium, aluminium composite panels, acrylic, stainless steel and built-up lettering. The materials and finishes are selected based on the desired appearance, environment and budget.
What is the difference between a totem sign and a monolith sign?
Both are freestanding outdoor business signs, but the terms are often used interchangeably. Totem signs typically have a taller, narrower profile and are commonly used for branding and wayfinding, while monolith signs are often wider, more substantial structures used for prominent entrances, developments or multi-tenant displays.
How much does a totem sign cost?
The cost of a totem sign depends on several factors, including:
- Size of the sign
- Complexity of design – e.g. shape and number of panels
- Materials – e.g. metal, wood, or composite materials
- Fixtures and fittings
- Lighting options
- Installation requirements
As every totem and monolith sign is bespoke, we provide tailored quotations based on your specific location, branding and requirements.
Can totem signs be customised to my brand?
Yes, totems and monoliths can be fully customised to your brand. This includes:
- Size and shape
- Brand colours
- Logos and 3D lettering
- Lighting options
- Materials and finishes
- Single or multi-business displays
- Wayfinding information
Can totem signs be illuminated?
How tall can a totem sign be?
Totem signs are completely bespoke and can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes and heights. The ideal dimensions will depend on factors such as viewing distance, location, planning requirements and the surrounding environment.
Do totem signs need planning permission?
Planning permission or advertisement consent may be required for some totem and monolith signs, depending on factors such as size, location, illumination and the surrounding area.Â
