Channel letters are illuminated advertising signs commonly used to display company logos or names. At night, illuminated channel letters can help catch passersby’s attention and draw their gaze inward.

There are various styles of illuminated channel letters available on the market today. From front-lit models to back-lit versions and even those combining both types of illumination.

LED Modules

LED modules provide bright and customizable lighting sources suitable for various projects. Their brightness makes them suitable for lighting signs, trade show booth designs, accent lighting or display light boxes and they come either single-color or color changing RGB versions.

These modules come encased in slim cases and soldered onto circuit boards. Inside is an array of LEDs which emit different hues to produce customized colors; other models also emit UV or white light.

Zhaga has created vendor-neutral terms and definitions for many of these interfaces, however this group intentionally excluded from its scope the LED driver-to-module Interface Specification (DMI). This was done to avoid standardization that might encumber design freedom or technical progress; MD-SIG hopes to develop a DMI specification which harmonizes current-setting methods across drivers and modules in order to create a simple yet user-friendly DMI interface that meets their specifications.

Aluminum Frame

Aluminum frames are lightweight and long-lasting – the ideal materials for bicycle frames. Their excellent tensile strength and corrosion resistance also make them suitable for high-speed riding, although they don’t support its stresses fully. Modern frames have advanced technological features which enhance functionality further; pour and debridge processes create thermal breaks in extrusions which improve energy performance, among other innovations.

Upgraded framing systems to aluminum frames is often an economical and effective way to demonstrate environmental intelligence, increase thermal performance and qualify for LEED points. LiteSpace aluminum framing systems install easily into finished openings to create attractive rooms featuring lots of glass; their low profiles celebrate light as it passes through them.

Aluminum frames must be protected when being installed into a masonry wall to avoid corrosion caused by cement-based materials such as mortar. Alkalies in fresh mortar can stain or damage aluminum, so frames should be coated with an alkaline-resistant finish to keep alkalines at bay.

Acrylic Face

Diasec is one of our customers’ go-to choices when it comes to mounting prints on acrylic sheets, particularly popular among contemporary art enthusiasts. This method involves adhering the photo directly onto acrylic glazing for maximum protection against mechanical influences and UV rays; there are even special fluids available which help shield prints against scratches and abrasions.

This process creates a very deep and clear image behind the print due to low light refraction and penetration rates. We offer anti-scratch surface coatings as a preventative measure against damage during shipping and installation.

Lit acrylic translucent vinyl face side lit (L-600) letters feature vinyl faces adhered to acrylic backs for elevating indoor signage. Trimless lit acrylic halo lit letters (L-900) offer a distinguished and sophisticated look with precisely defined edges for indoor signage. Our LED color options will meet all of your signage needs!

Trim Cap

Trim caps give your sign an elegant finish while serving as fastening points between its acrylic face and aluminum back, helping ensure its secure attachment for years to come.

Channel letters made of durable aluminum provide maximum visibility day and night, helping your brand gain maximum attention 24/7. Do not underestimate their power of drawing attention to your product/service offering!

LED signs are cost effective alternatives to other forms of advertising such as neon, as they use 20-60 percent less energy than neon bulbs. Their beauty can help your company build instant credibility with customers while being highly visible at night; according to the US Small Business Administration these signs have even been known to increase traffic by 150%!
