Channel letter signs are one of the best ways to draw customers’ attention to your business and can be customized in many different ways to meet your branding and marketing goals.
Front-lit signs use LED strips to illuminate letters in your logo or text, providing exceptional visibility and clarity throughout the day and night.
Channel letter signs offer great flexibility when it comes to creating signage that best reflects their business identity. They can be formed into letters and logos as desired, along with images to attract more customers. In addition, channel letter signs can also be illuminated to improve visibility and stand out among the competition.
LED has the distinct advantage of using less power than neon tubing, helping you save on electricity costs while being resistant to UV rays and lasting for many years.
Front-lit channel letters feature transparent acrylic faces with aluminum backs and sides (returns), which are lit internally using LED’s that illuminate each letter’s front side to produce an eye-catching halo effect. Front-lit channel letters are ideal for restaurants that want to make an eye-catching statement at nighttime; however, they can also be utilized by bars, convenience stores, or gas stations that remain open after dark.
Energy efficient LED lights have attracted many signage companies to switch out their traditional neon lighting systems for this more contemporary option, leading to long-term savings on electricity expenses for your business.
Channel letter signs offer many advantages over flat signs in terms of color retention, due to being less affected by UV rays and maintenance costs. Furthermore, their materials are highly durable and withstand even extreme weather conditions without degrading quickly.
These signs can either be mounted flush to the facade of your building, or placed on a raceway – an elevated metal rectangular structure which contains wires for your sign and may include an electrical supply holder – depending on which method of installation you select, your signage could either be front and back lit, or have acrylic faces with aluminum backs that creates an “halo effect. When used together they create the appearance that illumination surrounds each letter like an “enveloping halo.”
Channel letter signs are constructed of aluminum and acrylic materials for maximum durability in any environment. Resistant to fading, they require less maintenance than other types of illuminated signage – some models even include front/back lighting to maximize day/night time visibility; logos can add brand recognition while also increasing visual appeal.
Letters are typically constructed out of aluminum that has been cut to create the letter shapes. Once cut, their sides can then be bent back into place into return shapes that correspond with return shapes on various signs. They may either be front or back lit depending on your signage needs and could include LED strip lighting or neon bulbs as lighting sources.
A sign’s lifespan depends on its location, weather conditions, and maintenance practices. Signs near oceanfront locations are subject to salt air which accelerates its deterioration while extreme temperatures can cause LED lights to crack or fade over time.
Designing LED channel letter signage provides many design choices, from fonts and colors to halo style illumination options and open face LED illumination choices. Customize it according to your business brand identity while fitting into its surrounding environment.
Standard or front-lit channel letters are constructed of translucent acrylic. You can customize its appearance using high-performance vinyl or digital printing for greater color options, shapes and images for your sign design – as well as gradients and shadowing effects!
