Types of Signs
There are many signs that can be ordered from us, and customers can also request any sign they wish to be designed and installed. Each sign, even if it serves the same purpose, has different characteristics and design, according to the customer's preferences.
On this page, we will list some of the signs and products that are particularly common with us, categorized by topics, to provide you with inspiration for designing your signs and to give you an idea of the types of signs that exist and can be designed.
Signs for Businesses and Institutions
In the field of businesses and institutions, the signs can be divided into two parts
Signs for Synagogues and Institutions
Signage in synagogues and other religious institutions is a central and important part of the building’s design, mainly because memorials and prayer psalms are a central part of the entire world of synagogues and religious institutions.
Since there are many prayer and psalm boards that need to be hung in synagogues, this should be done professionally, so that the texts are readable and respectful, the materials of the boards and signs are high-quality, and the design of all the signs blends together.
Among the items commonly hung in synagogues, one can find eternal lights, memorial boards, donor boards for the synagogue or religious institution, memory boards for donors or their loved ones, and more.
As mentioned, there are also other religious institutions for which Gal-Ed provides signage and guidance, such as mikveh signs, memorial and remembrance boards in Torah institutions, and other signs as needed

Memorial and Commemoration Boards for Synagogues
In synagogues and other religious institutions, it is customary to have a memorial wall where memorial and commemoration boards are hung in honor of the donors who helped establish the synagogue or the relevant institution, or in memory of the donors' loved ones. These memorial boards and signs can be made in various sizes, materials, and styles that match the synagogue's design
6.
Eternal Lights and Lamps
We can design an eternal light for the synagogue in a variety of different styles. You can choose to add an inscription with the light and even include memorial and commemoration boards on it. There are eternal lights in different designs, for wall mounting, ceiling mounting, or mounting on the bimah.

Decoration Products and Additional options
There are additional products that are commonly hung in synagogues, such as a Tree of Life in memory of the donors, the Elijah's Chair, the Ten Commandments, decorative boards of the Ten Tribes or Seven Species, a decorated Parochet, and other elements chosen by the gabbai.
Additional Signage
In addition to signage for businesses and religious institutions, custom signage can also be created for personal use and various needs and purposes.
For example, many private individuals choose to memorialize their loved ones with memorial or remembrance signs that will be hung at a location or monument established in their memory, not necessarily in a religious or Torah setting.
The company also provides signage and memorial services for cemeteries, to guide visitors and memorialize the deceased. Cemeteries sometimes have special sections or memorial stones for specific groups of people, which also require signage and explanations about the memorial or section.
