About the Product
Premium Stainless Standoff Lettering Corten Steel Sign
A premium custom sign featuring raised stainless steel lettering mounted to a solid Corten steel panel. Designed for farm entrances, businesses, sheds, gates, and driveways, this style combines the warmth of weathered steel with the sharp contrast of stainless lettering for a clean, high-end finish.
Each sign is made to order and built for permanent outdoor use. The Corten panel is left to naturally weather, forming a protective rust layer over time, while the stainless steel lettering remains bright and corrosion-resistant. The letters are mounted using precision spacers, creating a floating effect that adds depth and shadow to the finished sign.
Made to Order
Every sign is cut and assembled specifically for you. Lettering, spacing, and layout are carefully set up to suit the size you’ve chosen and the length of your name or wording.
Before anything is made, a digital mock-up will be sent to you for approval, so you can check layout, proportions, and spelling. Nothing goes into production until you’re happy.
If you’re unsure whether your logo, font, or design will work well with raised stainless lettering, get in touch before ordering and we’ll confirm what’s possible.
Sizes
- Paddock: 1000 × 500 mm
- Outpost: 1200 × 600 mm
- Boundary: 1800 × 900 mm
- Driveway: 2400 × 1200 mm
- Statement: 3000 × 1500 mm
Choose a size that suits where the sign will live—whether it’s mounted to a gate, shed, fence line, or positioned at a driveway or roadside entrance.
Materials & Finish
- Panel: Genuine Corten steel, designed to weather naturally outdoors
- Lettering: Stainless steel for long-term durability and contrast
- Finish: Natural rusted panel with clean, raised lettering
- Use: Suitable for permanent outdoor installation
Each sign will develop its own character over time as the Corten steel continues to weather. Variations in colour and texture are normal and part of what makes each piece unique.
Fixings & Installation
All signs are supplied with stainless steel bolts and spacers required to fix the lettering to the Corten panel.
Fixings to mount the sign to your wall, post, gate, or structure are not included, as the correct screws or anchors depend on what you are fixing into (timber, steel, concrete, etc.). We recommend sourcing fixings locally to suit your specific installation.
The raised lettering design creates a clean, floating effect and allows water to drain naturally, helping maintain the sign over time.
Common Uses
- Farm and property entrance signs
- Business and studio signage
- Shed, workshop, or gate signs
- Driveway and roadside identification
- High-quality gift for new properties, weddings, or anniversaries
Lead Time
This is a made-to-order product. Roughly 15 to 20 working days from mock-up approval.

Let customers speak for us
Really happy with our new sign. The quality and finish are excellent, and it looks fantastic. We haven't installed it yet, but that's happening this weekend. It's going to add a bit more class to the office and give the place a much more professional look. Very happy with the result.
A simple but superb sign for our holiday cottage. Tim was so helpful and, following my initial contact, recommended exactly the right size and layout of sign.
Brilliant service from a great guy.
Thoroughly recommended!
Love the big hare. Looking great in our orchard under the apple tree.
Amazing job love the detail it looks so good driving in to our property
Excellent communication about a custom order. Will use again!
An excellent company to deal with

Best ever - this was a memorial to our recently deceased orange cats and they even look like them (shape wise). so nice to look out the window and be reminded of them. Love these
Looks great
Absolutely love what you have created and how my vision has come to life for my wonderful man
I'm thrilled with my purchase of 'Lookback Lucy', the perfect memorial piece for my beloved cat Molly - underneath a tree in the front garden, and admired by so many. A heartfelt thank you to the team at Rusty Deer, and Tim especially, for aiding my purchase every step of the way - stellar customer service with above & beyond care and attention to detail A++++!
Purchases were straightforward and all correspondence was answered promptly.
Would recommend
This is the second stag's head I have purchased and the recipients were stoked to receive them.
My son, who lives in care, specially asked for the small size to put on his bedroom door
We’ve displayed this as a way to remember our beloved pet who passed away. We think about him every time we look at it.
Love it. It’s a perfect gift.
