Royce Signworks began with a simple idea, that quality, handcrafted signs never go out of style. Founded in 1993 and based in Saddle Brook, New Jersey, we’ve built our reputation on a commitment to traditional sign-making techniques, precision craftsmanship, and exceptional customer service. Over the past 30 years, we’ve served businesses, property owners, and institutions across New Jersey, Staten Island, Westchester, and beyond with signage that blends artistry and function.
From our earliest days, we’ve focused on making signs that not only attract attention but also stand the test of time. Today, our shop continues to combine time-honored skills with modern design tools to create signage that is both visually striking and structurally durable.
Our mission is to provide custom signage that reflects the identity, values, and professionalism of each client. Whether it’s a hand-carved wood sign, a piece of gold leaf window lettering, or a hand-painted vehicle graphic, every detail is crafted to leave a lasting impression.
We believe signage is more than just a name on a wall. It’s a visual handshake between your brand and your audience. At Royce Signworks, we take that responsibility seriously, delivering products that communicate quality and care at every glance.
While trends and technologies have changed over the decades, our dedication to craftsmanship remains constant. We continue to practice techniques that have been passed down through generations of sign makers. Whether it’s hand carving, pinstriping, brush lettering, or surface gilding, each method we use is chosen for its visual impact and lasting value.
Every Royce Signworks sign is a collaboration between traditional tools and modern vision. It’s not just about making something look good; it’s about making something that works, lasts, and feels right in its setting.
Since 1993, we’ve worked with small businesses, institutions, architects, designers, and individuals who want more than a quick-print solution. Our longevity comes from a deep respect for craftsmanship and a focus on long-term client relationships.
Unlike many modern sign shops that rely entirely on machines, we still use hand tools, brushes, and traditional gilding techniques where it matters most. Whether we’re carving a dimensional wood sign or applying 23-karat gold leaf by hand, the result is a one-of-a-kind product.
We proudly serve clients in Saddle Brook and throughout Bergen County, Staten Island, Westchester, and the greater New Jersey area. Our custom hand-crafted signs can be seen on storefronts, restaurants, historic properties, and vehicles across the region.
No templates. No stock art. Every sign is designed specifically for the space, audience, and purpose it serves. We work closely with each client to ensure the final piece is exactly what they need.
We only use proven, premium materials — from long-lasting wood and HDU to professional-grade paints, gold leaf, and hardware. Our signs are built to last and maintain their beauty through the seasons.
Our clients include small business owners, boutique retailers, restaurants, architects, real estate developers, contractors, schools, municipalities, and historic preservation groups. Whether you’re opening a new storefront or restoring a heritage property, we bring the same level of attention and respect to every project.
If you value quality over shortcuts and believe your signage should reflect the personality of your brand, you’re exactly who we’re here for.
Every project begins with a conversation. Whether you reach out with a clear vision or a simple idea, we take the time to understand your goals and explore creative possibilities. Our team then develops design concepts, mockups, and recommendations based on the intended location, visibility, and branding style.
Once a design is approved, the fabrication process begins. Carved signs are shaped and finished in our Saddle Brook workshop, gold leaf is carefully applied using age-old gilding techniques, and painted or vinyl lettering is produced with accuracy and care. Installation is available locally, or we can ship completed signs securely.
