Channel letter lighting has long been used as part of decorative signage designs. Its versatile features create an alluring ambience that draws customers in.
Whatever brand identity you desire for your business, an LED illuminated sign may be just what’s necessary. Here are some advantages of this type of signage:
Easy to Install
Channel letter lighting can help your business shine brightly at night and improve visibility after dark. Its versatility means it can be utilized in various ways to draw customers in while being eco-friendly with less energy consumption compared to traditional signs.
Face lit channel letters with translucent acrylic facings are the most commonly seen type of illuminated signage, offering exceptional visibility from distance. Ideal for businesses that must remain visible even after sunset has set in, such as restaurants and other service businesses, face-lit channel letters are perfect.
Back lit channel letters (or halo illuminated channels) feature an illuminated return extending back along their shape for illumination from within. Fabricated from aluminum and sometimes multiple thicknesses for dimension and concealment of LED lighting within, back lit channel letters make an impressive first impression at any location.
GE’s 24V Tetra LED systems deliver high-performance yet cost-effective illumination for a variety of medium-sized channel letter applications. Utilizing four 5050 SMD chips per module to deliver bright and uniform illumination at lower power consumption (up to 128% less compared with older products).
Easy to Maintain
LEDs are known for being energy efficient and low maintenance lighting solutions, yet still require replacement at times. Therefore, it is advisable to hire a company which can design, create, and illuminate your signage so as to alleviate some of your marketing plan worries regarding its design and illumination by LED.
As part of maintaining your channel letter sign, cleaning to remove dust and checking for pests that might be causing damage is also an integral component. Furthermore, having access to power in case any problems arise is also key for proper upkeep of this sign.
If you want an attractive and effective way to grab attention, LED face-lit or halo-lit channel letters could be just what your business needs. With their brilliant glow that can get noticed day or night, these signs are available in various sizes and fonts so you can find one that speaks directly to your brand identity.
Durable
Channel letter lighting makes your business stand out in a way that attracts the eye of passersby, making it ideal for businesses that operate after dark, such as restaurants. It’s especially useful in areas with limited or no streetlight coverage such as retail.
Illuminated channel letters make an excellent outdoor sign option, but must be made of high-grade materials in order to resist damage and wear and tear. Furthermore, its durability will depend on factors like location and temperature conditions where it will operate – for instance if your sign is placed near an ocean, salt air could accelerate material degradation over time.
GE’s LED illumination systems are both durable and versatile, offering various color options. Standard white LEDs produce white light while RGB versions produce an array of hues. Furthermore, these energy efficient lamps use less power than neon and offer greater cost-efficiency when it comes to illuminated channel letters. GE LED illumination systems contain no mercury so are much safer alternatives.
Affordable
No matter if it’s new signage or an upgrade on existing signs, channel letter LED illumination will increase brand visibility and draw customers in during night hours. Channel letter signs are commonly found at restaurants, bars and pubs as well as convenience stores and gas stations who want their businesses to remain visible at night.
These illuminated signs are highly energy efficient and consume significantly less power than neon tubes, leading to significant electrical bill savings! Furthermore, their extended lifespan compared to traditional lighting options results in reduced costs associated with replacement parts and maintenance needs resulting in overall lower expenses overall.
