Channel letter lighting is an integral component of business signage, providing the ability to customize an eye-catching look that draws clients in while promoting your brand. You have several lighting options available – front lit, back lit or both!
These signs feature LED strip channels coated with translucent material that may be clear, opaque or semi-opaque to help diffuse light and add another dimension of interest. This layer also works as an effective light diffuser.
Durability
Illuminated channel letter signs may last a very long time depending on their construction materials and placement. Their longevity also depends on how often they’re maintained – this includes what type of cleaning supplies are used for their upkeep – which all have an effect on its lifespan.
Front lit channel letters give your business an upscale appearance and help it stand out from its competition. Available in various sizes, these customizable channel letters can also help your brand’s logo to stand out amongst competitors and increase brand recognition and customer base.

Energy Efficiency

Customization
Channel letters are highly customizable and suitable for almost any business that operates after dark, such as restaurants, bars, pubs, convenience stores or gas stations. LED backlighting increases visibility to increase patronage.
Channel letter lighting offers many customization options, from changing the halo backlight color to using standard acrylic colors, translucent vinyl overlays or digitally printed film to create any shade you need.
Illuminated channel letters come in three varieties: front lit, back lit and open face. Front-lit channel letters use LED illumination inserted in the can’s base that shines through an acrylic face for a classic look that can be further customized by changing materials, paint colors or font styles. Back-lit channel letters utilize LEDs positioned inside but pointing toward a building to produce a halo effect; they may feature aluminum backs or clear acrylic backs which may feature translucent vinyl logos to complete their classic appearance.
Maintenance
Illuminated channel letters are an increasingly popular choice for business signs due to their visibility throughout the day and night. Furthermore, they’re extremely durable – lasting years with proper maintenance.
Signs made of aluminum have a back that is either welded or CNC cut for mounting holes, creating the letter shape known as a can. Their faces can then be made of acrylic or polycarbonate material for easy trimming to achieve sleek and modern results.
The longevity of illuminated channel letters depends on their materials and environment, such as proximity to beaches where salt air damage could damage them over time; sun damage could fade colors over time as well. But longevity of illuminated channel letters can be greatly extended by washing away grime regularly from their faces and checking for pests chewing through any wires that may have become damaged over time.
