Huckabee Theater Signs Project
Ortwein was selected to build the custom signs for the new Huckabee Theater because of our experience working with large national sign companies. We’re proud of all the work our team put in to complete the project on time and build these custom signs.
What were the goals of the project? The project goals were to brand the theater with custom signs for the new TV program filmed inside by Gov Mike Huckabee. A patriotic theme was important…
What are the features of the signage for this project? Three custom signs were built by Ortwein Sign Company.
- One is on the stage (shown above) inside the Huckabee Theater in Nashville, TN. It is shown frequently on station breaks and features a custom fabricated metal sign cabinet with neon wrapped, fabricated Huckabee lettering. The top and bottom elements provide nice detail and add interest to the sign’s design. Designers at Brian R Scott design came up with the concept and Ortwein Sign Company designers gave it life.
- Second is a monument sign (main image) with similar elements as the interior sign to carry the patriotic theme of the theater to the outside of the theater. It includes a 10mm LED Message Center/Digital Sign that allows frequent message changes. This allows the folks at Trinity Broadcast Network to change featured guests, musicians, show times, etc.
- The third element is the building façade (main image) . It incorporated illuminated elements like the monument sign and stage sign that further carry the patriotic theme throughout the exterior of the theater. The combination of all these elements really makes the theater eye catching and stand out from its Nashville neighbors.
How long did it take to build these custom signs? One of the important points for this project was to have the equipment installed for first taping (Pres. Donald Trump, one of the first guests) on Friday Oct 6th, to air on Oct 7th. Our team got to work and completed the project right on time. The entire custom sign build and sign installation took approximately four weeks from contract to completion.

The Gulch Crossing Project
Ortwein Sign’s Nashville Sign Division was recently awarded a contract to produce signage for one of Nashville, TN newest Class A Office Space commercial development, The Gulch Crossing. The fantastic design work of Amy McNeil and her staff at 4th Leaf Design Studios in Nashville, TN. Some of the signage that was quite unique is being covered in this release of Ortwein Sign’s Sign Blog.
Gulch Crossing Letters – Corten Steel
The entry to the development was created of Corten Steel. The Gulch Crossing letters were installed in this material prior to installation with the rest of the material that makes up the entry wall. Corten steel is a product that has a coating that is supposed to age over time. If you’ll go to the Gulch Crossing link, https://www.gulchcrossing.com, you’ll see the entry and how the different sheets of material age, differently. Its a very unique finish, material and sign installation technique. The craftsmen at Ortwein Sign thrive on these unique custom applications. It was a challenge for the Ortwein Sign fabrication crew to make this look as nice as it turned out. “Anyone can do the standard sign construction stuff, it takes exceptional talent to create custom pieces of art” said John Shelton, Ortwein Sign fabricator.
Parking Garage Entry Sign
The development’s parking garage sign package contains a unique parking garage entry sign. It is lit on all 5 exposed sides, with a LED digital parking space availability display. This frosted translucent block is internally illuminated and looks like an “ice cube” said Jim Teal, Ortwein Sign’s VP of Operations. “Its a real attention getter!”
Weight Limit Sign
While The Gulch Crossing could have chosen to install a typical panel on a wall, which could have met requirements, people entering the parking garage are now notified of a weight limit restriction for vehicles in the parking garage by a very noticeable and unique triangluar shaped sign. The triangular sign with this information is an extension of the high end design of the facilities and by virtue of its more noticeable appearance, produces a more safe environment. Ortwein Sign Manufacturing Company would like to congratulate 4th Leaf Design, JE Dunn, and The Gulch Crossing on a fantastic development in downtown Nashville, TN.
Nashville Sign Regulations
Wall signs for Nashville have a restriction of up to 15% on any given area. There are limitations on sizes for free standing signs. This is based on the length of the road frontage on the property. Signs between the sizes of 48 square feet and 288 square feet require a size of 300 linear feet for the length of the road frontage. Setback rules for Nashville are at a 10 ft. minimum. This is based on the distance from ground level from the bottom of the sign. If the sign is less than 10 feet, then the setback is 15 feet. Any sign that is greater than 10 feet, this setback is also required. However, the higher the sign, the closer the sign can be to the road. LED signs and digital programming are allowed in the city of Nashville, in certain zone properties. The requirements are that the sign has to be 200 linear feet away from an agricultural zone and that the sign must be kept in a commercial zone.

Ortwein was asked to work with Cumberland Trust located in Nashville TN with a project for the building in which their corporate offices were located. After the initial meeting, we were able to come up with a unique design for a monument sign that had push thru lettering which closely resemble channel letters at night. We engaged one of our sub-contractors to provide the stone masonry base. The sign also had to include as apportion of the finish a patina look. Once the base was finished, the installation took place early one morning to avoid any traffic issues with the tenants as they arrived for work. This was just one of the many monument signs that we have been asked to design, manufacture, and install over the last several years. Designs available upon request.
