Front and backlit channel letters are an effective form of signage for businesses, providing an easily readable display during the day and offering an eye-catching show at night.

LED strip channels help diffuse and distribute light evenly, increasing brightness. GE’s Tetra modules feature optics that take the native beam angle of LED strips and redirect it laterally for even brighter signs.

Front-Lit

Front-lit channel letters are one of the most versatile illuminated signs available to businesses, featuring energy saving LED lighting that can lower electricity costs while still looking professional indoors or outdoors. Perfect for displaying business name/logo displays indoors/outdoors!

These signs can be mounted in various ways, including raceway, flush mount and freestanding mounting methods. Their versatility also extends to font styles and colors to meet your business needs; their durability ensures they can withstand the elements.

Signs that can be back lit or halo-lit are available in various sizes and configurations, typically featuring solid acrylic faces with aluminum returns and trim caps, illuminated from within. Their illumination matches up perfectly with the color of acrylic used to give these signs a contemporary aesthetic; alternatively halo-lit channels may be added for an eye-catching glow that draws people in to your location.

Reverse-Lit

Channel letters are an engaging form of signage that spell out your business name while remaining visible day or night. Perfect for storefront windows or architectural facades, channel letters feature three-dimensional graphic sign elements with plenty of options that capture customers on-the-go.

Standard front-lit channel letters are constructed of aluminum backing and sides (returns), with polycarbonate or acrylic faces finished off by LED or neon backlighting to illuminate their faces and may feature logos or graphics as well.

Reverse-Lit, also referred to as Halo-Lit or Back-Lit signs are composed of aluminum faces and returns complemented with translucent acrylic faces that produce an illuminated halo effect behind each letter. Illumination comes from behind, flooding walls or building facades behind. Unlike front-lit channel letters that can be raceway mounted, Reverse-Lit signs typically need to be flush mounted for optimal viewing results.

Dual-Lit

Front back lit channel letters combine the best features of both types of channel letters – front-lit acrylic with internal LEDs that light from behind and create a “halo” effect from their glow – for high visibility, professional business signage that’s customizable to match branding guidelines and aesthetic.

These custom sign letters can often be seen adorning storefronts, mall entrances and corporate offices. Their sleek yet modern appearance make them suitable for commercial usage – they are durable yet energy efficient – making these sign letters perfect for commercial applications.

Lighted lettering can draw customers’ attention to your brand and increase sales. Fastened to a raceway – a custom-fabricated metal sign mounting structure designed for signage with multiple electrical components – this system enables letters to be mounted at an optimal 1.5″ wall standoff distance for producing a halo lighting effect. When back lighted letters are illuminated they have either clear or frosted lexan backings (to reduce glare), providing more of a consistent look when illuminated.

Customization

Are You Searching for a Way to Communicate Your Company Name, Display its Logo or Communicate Its Services? Channel Letter Signage from LED is the solution! Featuring customized fonts and sizes to fit all business needs and environments.

Front lit or standard channel letters consist of aluminum backs and sides (known as returns) formed into the shape of letters, covered by translucent, flat, or prismatic (faceted) plastic covers that can either be flat, spherical, prismatic (faceted), or prismatic. Their faces are typically made out of routed acrylic sheets custom painted to match your brand colors before being finished off with an attractive trim cap border and completed sign look.

Illuminated channel letter signs are an excellent way for businesses that stay open late like bars, restaurants or convenience stores to draw customers in after dark. Furthermore, illuminated channel letter signs stand out amongst competitors by drawing customer attention directly.
