Pylon Signs vs. Monument Signs
Pylon signs are tall, pole-mounted structures designed for visibility from the road. They're the standard choice for gas stations, plazas, fast food locations, and commercial buildings that need to be seen from a distance at highway or arterial road speeds.
Monument signs sit close to ground level with a solid base — often brick, stone, or brushed aluminum. They're common at professional offices, medical buildings, residential developments, and upscale retail plazas in areas like Markham, Richmond Hill, and north Toronto.
Permits and Structural Engineering
Freestanding signs require engineering drawings and building permits from the local municipality. BestSigns manages the entire approval process — from structural calculations to permit submission and inspection coordination — across Toronto, Peel Region, York Region, and Durham Region.
