When buying a metal sign you might assume that your magnets will stick to any metal material. The truth is steel will hold your magnets while aluminum won't. If you're interested in customizing your sign with temporary magnets, Steel Dibond is the best option.
Many consumers love the idea of Aluminum Dibond, a plastic core bonded to two aluminum sheets, the result being a sign that is as light as it is strong. But why stop there? Why not substitute an even stronger metal, but try to retain some of the lighter weight? That's exactly what we've done with our Steel Dibond.
Steel has a density about 250% higher than Aluminum. This means steel weighs more. While many might view this as a disadvantage, the fact is that steel's higher density is the reason steel is less likely than aluminum to bend or warp over time.
Our Pricing Calculator allows you to see how your sign will look next to an actual person. Enter the dimensions of the sign you want and the calculator will adjust the red sign in the graphic in proportion to a six-foot-tall person. Once you have the right size, select your desired material, quantity, and thickness. The calculator will give you a price before you have even added the sign to your shopping cart. Customize your sign exactly the way you want it.
