Front lit channel letters are one of the best ways to increase brand exposure. Outfitted with energy-saving LED lights, they make for a striking presence at any business location.
GE’s Tetra lighting systems deliver bright, uniform illumination in channel letter signs while using less power than neon. Be sure to adhere to OSHA LOTO and NEC practices when inspecting, installing or removing these signs.
Front-Lit
Front lit channel letters shine a brilliant illumination onto their letters’ surfaces, giving them an eye-catching radiance day or night. As one of the most commonly used types of channel letters, they come in an assortment of fonts and sizes to meet every business need.
Signs typically consist of aluminum back and sides (known as returns) with an acrylic face that are custom fabricated to meet letter size and shape requirements. A trim cap may also be added, which can be painted to meet brand standards.
These luminaires provide a more distinguished appearance or brand image for projects that require it, or applications where light pollution may be an issue. Furthermore, they are less costly than their halo-lit counterparts and make an attractive option for storefront signage, mall entrance signs and corporate office building reception areas.
Halo-Lit
LEDs placed behind fabricated metal letters create a halo effect with illumination encompassing its face. Ideal for letters with shallow to medium can depths, this approach adds value and sophistication to any sign project.

Back-Lit
Back-lit channel letters provide a halo effect and are ideal for retail signage and corporate offices, as well as businesses open at night such as restaurants, pubs, convenience stores, gas stations etc.
These metal fabricated signs feature aluminum faces with LED lights positioned behind for a back-lit halo effect. Letters feature translucent coating that allows up to 85-95 percent of light transmission through, creating a 3D effect and making the letters stand out among other signage.
These illuminated sign letters come equipped with mounting hardware that enables stud mounting at 1.5″ wall standoff, the ideal height to create the halo effect. You can hardwire these units and use your own LED modules and wiring, saving energy over neon signage which in turn leads to considerable savings on electrical bills.
Side-Lit
LED lighting stands out as being energy efficient and employing significant illumination while using relatively less electricity, leading to reduced costs and enhanced environmental sustainability.
Front lit channel letters are one of the most widely-used illuminated signs. Highly visible day and night, they can easily be read from a distance and constructed using aluminum back and sides (called returns ) with translucent acrylic faces customized to each business’ specifications.
Side-lit channel letter signage creates an eye-catching effect and is the perfect addition to businesses that operate after dark, such as restaurants, bars or convenience stores. Pylon and monument builders often opt for side-lit channel letter signs due to their versatile nature: flush or raceway mounting options provide less building penetrations; additionally these signs feature halo lighting that can even be routed from thick acrylic materials.
