LED channel letters offer an effective means of making your business visible after dark, ideal for restaurants, bars, gas stations and grocery stores that remain open after sundown.
GE’s OptiLens technology optimizes LED performance, creating striking illumination across letter faces using fewer modules. As an example, one string of Tetra miniMAX or PowerMAX could cover an impressive five-inch depth capitol T in just one shot!
Face Lit
Face lit channel letters allow you to express your brand identity through vibrant colors that attract passersby’s attention. Their LED lights use less power and are more eco-friendly. Furthermore, these signs provide a great way to increase customer awareness.
Channel letter signs come in an assortment of colors to create a variety of looks and can be combined with other sign elements for a customized feel. They can either be mounted to a raceway or flush mounted directly onto walls for ease of installation.
Signage that features this type of signage is often employed by restaurants and retail stores to project an elegant image, but can also be utilized by businesses, corporate identities, or any number of applications. These signs feature an aluminum back with an acrylic face featuring stainless steel returns and edges; their installation requires minimal effort, minimal maintenance requirements and long term cost savings compared to other forms of signage.
Halo Lit
Halo Lit Channel Letters combine the best aspects of both front-lit and back-lit signs into one stunning sign design. Their aluminum faces welded to aluminum returns are accented by transparent backs with inner lighting for an elegant illumination surrounding their sign’s outline.
Back-lit channel letters can often be found mounted to storefronts and are an effective way for businesses to make an impressionful first impression with customers! They also work well in lobbies or meeting rooms as branding elements to increase name recognition.
Backlit LED Channel Letters emit an even, cool white light (6500K). Their even luminosity will illuminate your business and create an eye-catching visual statement!
Standard Halo options diffuse LED lighting by diffusing it through white polycarbonate backs; for a more tailored appearance, clear lexan is also an option. Both options feature centrally located threaded stud mounts to make servicing of lights easy without visible return screws; they can either be wall-mounted directly onto storefront walls or secured to sign tray panels for convenient mounting.
Fabricated
Channel letter signage is popularly employed in businesses open at night. It draws passersby’s attention, increases visibility, is more cost-effective and eco-friendly than neon or fluorescent alternatives, and usually uses LED illumination.
These signs utilize router-cut aluminum sheeting of various thicknesses. Once cut, their backs are painted according to branding guidelines before their sides (known as returns) are bent using computerized bending machines; acrylic faces are created and attached securely using trim cap, creating an elegant finished look for each sign.
These signs make an excellent addition to retail stores, strip malls, office buildings, and corporate lobby areas. Their modern appearance evokes memories of classic diners and bars from yesteryear, making this type of signage perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. Furthermore, monument and pylon signs can easily integrate with this type of signage for added versatility.
Custom
Custom channel letter signs are the ultimate in professional signage, offering maximum impact both day and night. LED-based illuminated signs typically provide substantial energy cost savings over neon installations.
LED-based signs are frequently found in retail stores, but also have many other uses including restaurants, bars and convenience stores. You can customize these LED signs with fonts and colors to meet the brand or business requirements of your establishment.
Signs made with translucent acrylic or aluminum faces are routed with computer-aided routing machines to form your logo or message, with returns bent using computerized bending and shaping machines before being connected back together to form “channel signage.” Finally, front or reverse lighting (also referred to as halo lighting) may be added for extra effect.
