Bright, uniform and reliable signage helps businesses project an excellent image to potential clients; however, poor lighting can have the opposite effect and produce an unpleasant visual experience for consumers.

LED strip channel lights provide an effective solution for lighting commercial signage. Easy and energy-efficient installations provide multiple advantages, including:

Easy to Install

LED lighting is an easy and energy-efficient way to increase the visibility of your business at night, providing an ideal option for businesses that operate after dark. LED can be integrated into channel letter signs, electronic message centers and custom name plates for added flexibility when installing them.

Channel letter signs consist of three main parts constructed with metal bodies: its face, sidewalls and back are connected by an aluminum backing that may include translucent acrylic face panels; returns are bent and shaped using computer-driven bending machines to produce their unique channel effect that gives these signs their name.

Lights within a channel are protected by lenses which let light pass through, blocking or lowering light points while increasing light diffusion. Lenses come in clear, opaque or semi-opaque options to accommodate various sign designs as well as sizes, shapes and colors to fit them seamlessly.

Energy-Efficient

Channel letter lighting can help your business make an impressionful statement about itself. This type of signage includes figures, letters, numbers or logos illuminated by LED lights for maximum visual impact that’s easily seen from long distance.

Channel letter signs are constructed from a flat sheet of metal in various thicknesses that is bent into its desired shape with computer-driven machines, then fastened onto an enclosed “channel.” This sign type takes its name from its unique style of construction.

GE’s Tetra LED modules allow you to use fewer strings of LEDs than would be feasible with other products in order to maintain impressive illumination across the face of your signs, thus reducing costs significantly and saving on electricity consumption costs. Plus, LEDs consume significantly less power than neon tubes – saving even more on your energy bill!

Durable

Channel letter lighting provides a modern high-tech aesthetic while still being energy efficient and durable. Its translucent layer lets 85-95% of light through, making it an excellent way to get noticed at night by customers or potential clients. Plus, channel letter lights can be customized to match any aesthetic imaginable – be it modern or rustic!

LEDs offer several advantages over neon tubes containing mercury; they do not break as easily and can be safely repaired; their cost-of-ownership and maintenance requirements are lower, plus they can be placed front or backlit, plus combined with other signage solutions for an attractive display.

LED signs stand out from their flat counterparts with their three-dimensional appearance and three-dimensionality, creating an exceptional sign experience. However, it should be remembered that these lights won’t last forever and their lifespan depends on your environment and usage habits – going beyond this limit can cause them to experience “luminous decay”.

Customizable

No matter the location of your business, LED channel letter signs can help increase its visibility. With their long lifespan and simple maintenance requirements, these signs provide added exposure for any location – be it restaurants, storefronts or even offices. Plus, they can be customized with logos or colors schemes specific to your company!

These signs are usually created with an aluminum back, while their returns (aka sides), are bent using computer-driven machines into whatever shape is desired for your sign. Once complete, an acrylic face is then attached via trim cap – although some signs have an open face for a neon effect.

GE’s Tetra LED illumination systems deliver exceptional uniformity and reliability for channel letter signage with minimal maintenance needs. Their energy-saving design reduces energy costs while using less LED modules than traditional neon-based signs – offering significant cost-cutting potential for your business.
