Create a custom engraved metal plate, nameplate or sign made to your exact specifications. Our plates are precision cut and laser engraved or sublimated on aluminum, brass, and acrylic for both indoor or outdoor use (depending on material selected). Ideal for memorial plates, equipment labels, electrical panels, industrial nameplates, signage, and identification plates.
Start by choosing your material, finish, size, orientation, corner style, mounting option, and font. Then you can enter custom text and upload a logo, artwork, or design file to be precisely engraved onto your plate. Every order is reviewed and produced in-house to ensure clean engraving, sharp detail, and consistent quality.
Plates are custom cut to size, then laser engraved. This process produces permanent markings that won’t fade, peel, or wear away under normal use. Our plates are commonly used for memorial plates, equipment labels, business signage, identification plates, nameplates, awards, and custom signage applications.
For detailed material specifications—including thickness, engraving color, finish options, and indoor or outdoor suitability—please visit the Materials Page before ordering.
Every Maker Plate is handcrafted in our Kansas workshop and backed by the Maker Plates Guarantee, ensuring you receive a plate that meets your specifications and is built to last.

Purchased for my daughter’s Eagle Scout project and she couldn’t have been more pleased with the result of her plaque. It’s clean, scratch-free and showed up quickly.
It was exactly what I wanted and looks great. They tore down the high school I graduated from and I was able to get a brick from the school. I was looking for something to put on it to mark that it wasn't just a random brick- that it had meaning. Thank you!
Another quality piece. Super responsive and great to work with. Shipping was quick and well packaged. The plaque is exactly what we needed and it looks amazing. Thanks!
Great to work with. They helped me design it and I couldn’t be more happy with the finished product. Highly recommend! Thanks!
I have used this vendor twice for name plates for two of my dogs who have passed away and I am so appreciative of this service. Thank you for making their wood urns beautiful.
The engraving turned out so beautiful! My mom wanted a plaque for her souvenir pen stand, to commemorate the date purchased and where it was from, and this worked perfectly!
Highly recommend. Ordered two 3x1 for a corporate awards ceremony. clean and simple, professional look and feel of the metal material. Seller worked with me through many mockups with different designs and requests. 10/10
Chris with MakerPlates was amazing ! His quick responses to my questions and ideas I thru at him he made happen immediately. I’m so happy now seeing the finished product. I would highly recommend this company.
Great customer service and helped me get exactly what I needed. They even went so far as to make sure I was okay with the corners and other results. Very happy and will be a returning customer.
Excellent item! Will buy from seller again! Was very responsive and sent a proof prior to making the purchase as I requested! Very happy with my purchase!
They created a plate for my daughter's Girl Scout Gold Awaed pr9ject based on a design I sent them. They were able to create exactly what I was after. Shipping was fast and the item arrived quickly. Only thing they could have improved on was sending a proof for approval before the product was shipped. Would have like to verify it was what I was after. Other than that great shop to work with.
