An outdoor wall sign mockup, made for presenting an office sign. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are.
Good pick for branding studios, architects or anyone putting together a portfolio. Outdoor ads are read in a second or two. Big type and one image will look far better in this scene than a busy layout.
Agencies use scenes like this in pitch decks, where a realistic placement often sells the idea more than the artwork alone.
Works well for
- An office sign
- A shop sign
- A neon logo

Outdoor Wall Sign Mockup: editable parts
Open it in Photoshop and you can change:
- Ad artwork, placed through the smart object
- Glow layer for backlit scenes, where included
- Brightness to match the scene
- Lighting and shadow layers
Add your design to the Outdoor Wall Sign Mockup
- Keep the ad simple: one image, a short headline and the logo.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Use the glow layer for night or backlit scenes.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
Another tip: check your artwork’s aspect ratio against the smart object before you start, or faces and logos get cropped.

Questions about this mockup
What licence does it come with?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Designbolts. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I add my design?
Open the file in Photoshop, double-click the smart object thumbnail, paste or place your artwork in the new tab, save it (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close. The main file updates on its own.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
What ratio should my artwork be?
Open the smart object and check its canvas; design to that ratio. Most outdoor mockups use common print ratios, but it varies from file to file.
