Product Information
MUTCD Compliant Extruded Blade Street Name Signs
These custom extruded street name signs are built for road-grade use on private roads, neighborhoods, HOAs, campuses, facilities, business parks, and replacement street name blades. Each sign is printed on reflective extruded aluminum with standard street name colors, mixed-case lettering, and a layout designed around MUTCD street name sign guidance.
The extruded blade version uses a more rigid formed aluminum profile than a standard flat blade. It is a good choice when you want a premium blade, need to match an existing extruded street name sign system, or are using brackets made for extruded street name blades.
For public road use, confirm your city, county, state, HOA, or agency requirements before ordering. If your project needs longer blades, logos, arrows, block numbers, two-line layouts, custom colors, posts, brackets, special hole spacing, or 10 or more signs, please request a quote so we can review the correct layout and mounting setup.

Blade Sizes and Lettering
Sizes are shown as width x height. Shorter names can use shorter blades, while longer street names or larger lettering may need a wider blade.
| Blade Size | Typical Use | Lettering |
|---|---|---|
| 18" x 6" | Very short names where a compact 6" blade is preferred | 4" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 24" x 6" | Short names on low-volume private roads, facilities, and neighborhoods | 4" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 30" x 6" | Medium street names on a standard 6" blade | 4" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 36" x 6" | Longer names where a 6" blade is preferred | 4" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 24" x 9" | Short names where larger lettering is needed | 6" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 30" x 9" | Medium names with larger lettering for better visibility | 6" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 36" x 9" | Longer names with larger lettering | 6" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
| 42" x 9" | Largest standard online blade for longer names and improved readability | 6" primary letters with smaller prefix and suffix text |
Reflective Sheeting Options
High Intensity Prismatic is the standard reflective option for this product. Diamond Grade DG3 is a premium upgrade with brighter reflectivity and a longer standard sheeting warranty.
| Reflective Type | Best Use | Warranty |
|---|---|---|
| 3M High Intensity Prismatic | Current standard option for road-grade reflective street name signs | Standard 10-year sheeting warranty |
| 3M Diamond Grade DG3 | Premium reflective upgrade for higher visibility and longer service life | Standard 12-year sheeting warranty |
Standard Color Schemes
Choose from standard street name sign color schemes. The legend is white on green, blue, brown, or black backgrounds. White background signs use black legend.
| Color Scheme | Best Use |
|---|---|
| White on Green | Most common street name sign color |
| White on Blue | Alternative road-grade color for communities, campuses, and facilities |
| White on Brown | Common for parks, private communities, and decorative road systems |
| White on Black | Clean, high-contrast option for private roads and branded properties |
| Black on White | White background option with black legend |
Prefix and Suffix Position
Prefix and suffix text is shown at about half the height of the main street name. You can place the prefix and suffix at the top, middle, or bottom of the layout.
| Position | How It Looks | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Top | Prefix and suffix sit higher on the sign | Use when matching existing signs with raised prefix or suffix text |
| Middle | Prefix and suffix are centered with the main street name | Good default when no existing layout needs to be matched |
| Bottom | Prefix and suffix sit lower on the sign | Use when matching existing signs with lowered prefix or suffix text |
If you need the prefix to be the same size as the main street name, enter it directly in the Street Name field. The suffix remains smaller in the standard builder.
Text Guidelines
- Use upper and lower case text, such as Maple Ave
- Use standard abbreviations for prefixes and suffixes, such as N, NE, NW, St, Ave, Rd, Dr, Way, or Blvd
- Use letters and numbers only in the basic builder
- Use all-capital text only when matching an existing sign or project requirement
- Do not use punctuation, special characters, block numbers, logos, or arrows in the basic builder
- Longer names, logos, arrows, route shields, and two-line layouts should be quoted before production
