Signage is part of the architecture. Walton works alongside design teams on signage that complements the building rather than fighting it — bringing engineering, prototyping, and installation experience to the table early enough to protect the design intent.
Pains
What you're up against
- Signage specs that don't survive value engineering
- Late-stage code and permit surprises that force redesign
- Coordinating the sign installer with the GC and AOR
- Detail drawings that don't account for how signs actually mount
Look for
What you should be looking for in a partner
- A sign partner with in-house engineering and prototyping
- Documented experience on comparable building types
- Willingness to value-engineer without losing the design intent
- Code and permit expertise that flags issues during DD/CD, not at submittal

FAQ
Common questions
Will Walton work directly with the design team during DD/CD?
Yes — engaging Walton during design development typically catches code, mounting, and value-engineering issues early enough to keep the design intent intact.
