Rader’s Engraving is a downtown Boston engraving and sign shop that handles custom work for individuals and businesses. It produces brass, plastic and vinyl signs, ADA-compliant and Braille signs, cast bronze plaques and letters, directional and OSHA signs, desk signs, badges, mailbox labels and individual letters in any size or material. It also engraves awards, trophies, clocks, gavels, silver bowls, frames, pens and other gifts and keepsakes.

The shop has been in business for decades and uses computerized engravers alongside pantograph machinery for jobs that need a hands-on approach.
