High-rise Stage & Rappelling 🪢

Family owned since 1942, Metro Signs & Lighting has grown over the past 80 years from a small installation firm into a full-service Sign and Lighting solutions company covering all of southern Michigan. John and Paul Deters purchased Metro Detroit Signs in 1996 from the Randall family, adding custom design and fabrication capabilities for local clients shortly afterwards.

With a growing customer base that needed ongoing support for their sign and lighting needs, Metro Detroit Signs rebranded to Metro Signs & Lighting after opening a second location in Grand Rapids. Now headquartered on Kaltz Avenue in Warren, Metro Signs & Lighting is proud to be the home of a 3rd generation of Deters.

  Resourceful: Our team approaches projects and challenges with an open mind and a can-do attitude. This allows us to implement creative and effective solutions for our clients.

   Caring: Creating a family atmosphere is one of our top priorities. Our commitment to brighter futures encourages team members to share their successes with all stakeholders. We strive to work humbly and with a customer-focused mindset that creates positive influences on our communities.

   Gritty: Tough conditions and setbacks are a part of growth, so we encourage our team to approach roadblocks with a tenacious and driven demeanor. This competitive spirit is how we exceed customer expectations and meet demanding deadlines.
