open signs

Store availability notices

Open signs are illuminated displays, typically neon or LED, placed in business windows to indicate the establishment is currently operating.

The classic design features "OPEN" in bright letters, often red or multicolored, sometimes with flashing effects.

They've become a fixture of American commercial streetscapes: The open sign flickered to life as the diner unlocked its doors.
