What Is Business Hours Signage?
A business hours sign is a display, decal, or sticker that tells customers when you’re open. Establishments such as retail stores, restaurants, gyms, and salons use them most often.
You can post these signs at your entrance, on a window, or near your storefront. Pair them with your company logo, a QR code, or phone number to complement the design.
Hours-of-operation signage provides a perfect surface for displaying wayfinding arrows and guiding your visitors. You can also leave temporary notes or display holiday and seasonal hours.
We print on materials built for indoor or outdoor use, so your sign holds up wherever you place it.
Need to use your storefront to communicate your working hours? Window decals and clings have you covered. Install acrylic signs on the walls to add a premium finish for upscale spaces. Every option uses UV-resistant inks, so your displays stay vibrant for years.

What to Include on Your Hours of Operation Sign
A store sign can simply state when you're open and closed. It can also do more: catch attention, inform customers, and build trust in your brand. Here are some recommendations if you want your hours sign to be more effective.
- Use light text on clear decals: If you're using a transparent decal, stick with white or light-colored text; dark letters get lost against glass, especially when it's tinted.
- Group similar days together: If your hours repeat across the week, list them as a range, like Monday through Friday. Your sign stays shorter, cleaner, and easier to read at a glance.
- Add your logo and brand colors: Skip the plain text on a blank background. Use our free design tool to add your logo and brand colors at no extra cost, so your hours sign matches the rest of your storefront.
- Include your contact info: Add a phone number or website so people can still reach you when you're closed.
- Add a QR code: Link straight to your booking page, menu, or website. It saves customers a search and gets them where they need to go in one scan.
- Note holiday and seasonal hours: Post any exceptions ahead of time, so customers don't show up to a locked door.

FAQs
- For outdoor use, aluminum, PVC, and acrylic hold up best. All three are weather-resistant and withstand daily wear and tear.
- For indoor use, acrylic, adhesive vinyl, PVC, and foam board are your best options. Pedestal signs and acrylic table signs display your hours right at reception desks and countertops. Table tents and tabletop retractable banners share your hours at tables, host stands, or checkout counters.
- Definitely. Our sign design tool lets you add your logo, brand colors, and any other element to your artwork, or build a design from scratch. You can also use our AI generator or start from a template made for posting business hours.
- Install your sign at eye level, where customers will naturally notice it. Outdoor signs work best near your main entrance, on a storefront window, or by a parking lot. Indoor signs do well at reception desks, checkout counters, host stands, and lobby entrances.
- It depends on the sign type. Aluminum, foam board, black acrylic, and corrugated plastic all support double-sided printing.
- Square Signs offers one- and two-day production options. Shipping time depends on your location and delivery method, and you’ll see the estimated delivery date at checkout.
