Public Lands Trail, Campground & Park Identification Plates

Custom engraved metal plates for trail networks, campgrounds, visitor interpretation and maintenance assets. Start with a few replacements or send a schedule of hundreds of different IDs, texts and mounting patterns.

We cut and engrave in Idaho using U.S.-made sheet metal. Supply your approved drawings, sign plan or procurement specification and we can quote the plate construction around it.

One land management project can need several kinds of identification

Campground and recreation identifiers

Sequential campsite numbers, loop names and facility IDs in a coordinated schedule.

Designed from your agency's approved information

Forest and national park visitor signs can be subject to agency-specific layouts, installation standards and approval. We can manufacture engraved metal components from the provided specification, but concept artwork on this page is not a standard or approved agency design. Send required dimensions, text height, material, hole pattern, logo or artwork files and any construction details with the RFQ.

For staff-facing asset identification, a simple metal tag can carry a matching department name, sequence, equipment ID or approved scannable code. For visitor-facing interpretation, we review text density, viewing distance, glare, graphics and mounting as a separate plate project.

U.S. sheet metal and Idaho manufacturing

Our sheet metal is purchased as U.S.-made, and we laser cut and engrave the plates in St. Anthony, Idaho. If the project includes a Buy American, Build America Buy America, or other domestic-content requirement, send the applicable clause with your RFQ. We can document the proposed metal and review the complete configuration—including any stand or hardware—against the specific requirement before making a compliance representation.

A short summary is enough to begin. Quantity, size and an asset schedule can be added now or discussed afterward.

Questions from land management buyers

Can you work from a spreadsheet of different trail or campsite identifiers?

Yes. Supply one row per plate with its text, number, size and any mounting or location note.

Can you reproduce an agency's approved sign layout?

We can review the supplied drawing and artwork for manufacturability. The agency controls the final content, approval and installation standard.

Are stands and posts included?

We primarily manufacture the metal plate. Include a stand, post or mounting assembly in the RFQ if you want it quoted with the plate.
