Your Words. Your Mountain. Carved in Solid Canadian Timber.

Some things deserve to be permanent. The name of your chalet. A quote that gets you out of bed on a powder morning. The elevation of your favourite summit. The phrase your family says every time you pull into the driveway.

This is the sign for all of it. No template, no format, no limits — just your words, precision CNC-carved into solid Canadian timber and hand-finished in our Monashee mountain workshop.

Need some inspiration? Here's what our customers carve:

  • "The mountains are calling and I must go"
  • "Après all day"
  • "Elevation: 6,200 ft"
  • "Summit or nothing"
  • "This is our happy place"
  • "Established 1987 — The Thomson Cabin"
  • "No wifi. Better signal."
  • "Good vibes only. Powder days preferred."

Et en français :

  • "La montagne, c'est la vie"
  • "Notre refuge"
  • "Ici, on ski"
  • "Le chalet des rêves"
  • "Famille Tremblay, depuis 1994"
  • "Bienvenue chez nous"
  • "Sommet ou rien"

If you can write it, we can carve it — in any language.

How It Works:

  1. Choose Your Size: From a small plaque to a bold statement piece, select the dimensions that suit your space
  2. Select Your Wood & Finish: Knotty Pine for rustic warmth, Canadian Maple or North American Ash for a cleaner, more refined look
  3. Pick Your Painted Colour: Choose from a range of painted finishes or keep the natural wood grain
  4. Leave Your Message: Up to four lines of custom text — your words, your layout, your sign

After purchase, we'll send you a digital proof for approval before we carve a single millimetre. Your sign won't go into production until you're happy with it.

Perfect For:

  • Naming your cabin, chalet, or mountain retreat
  • Commemorating a summit, a special trip, or a milestone
  • Displaying a favourite quote in French or English
  • Alpine-themed businesses, lodges, and event spaces
  • A truly one-of-a-kind gift for the mountain lover in your life

Materials

Here are the standard wood options

All our products are made from solid wood ie. no MDF or plywood unless specified for a custom order.

Wood by its very nature (being an all natural material) has its character traits ... some species more than others. Knotty Pine of course has knots and significant colour variation is possible.

Maple is more predictable with very few knots, and bring a fairly dense wood it machines precisely. Ash is similar with the added benefit of being more resistant to rot so a good fit for outdoor use.

Shipping & Returns

We will start to make your sign AFTER any personalization has been approved via email [we send you a computer rendering within 72hrs of receiving your order]. It then takes about 5 days once you have given approval via email reply to carve, finish, pack & ship. During busy periods such as the Xmas rush this can increase to 2 weeks and larger / volume orders can also take longer.

NOTE: We are not responsible for delays caused by customs or other carrier-related delays out of our control. When your order ships you will get a calculated ESTIMATED time of arrival based on the carrier's own standards, but this is not a guaranteed arrival date.

We only ship with trackable methods such as Canada Post Expedited Parcel, UPS Ground, Purolator Ground, etc.

Contact us within 14 days of receipt with any damage or other product concerns. For returns we need to receive the product back within 30 days of you receiving it and it must be in new condition (unless of course it arrived damaged).

Dimensions

We actually make our products using mm but we will quote sizes in both mm & the closest inch dimensions. It's just way more precise to use mm in the workshop.

Care Instructions

We use exterior grade paints and all sign products have an exterior clear coat on the front and edges.
We can paint the back side also if you ask.

As long as you avoid spilling anything on the wood or wipe off immediately then there should be minimal maintenance required ... wipe down with a damp cloth.
As with any wood product try to avoid excessive temperature fluctuations as the wood can distort. Some amount of fading is to be expected with any painted wood product exposed to the sun & elements over time ... much in the same way that the siding on a house or your car will fade in the sun eventually.
