For your business to remain visible after dark, LED illumination is key. This type of sign is ideal for restaurants, shopping centers and other establishments open until late in the evening.
LED channel letter signs are versatile and highly adaptable – an excellent solution for businesses of any size. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at all of their lighting, mounting, and color options available.
Customization
Illuminated channel letter signs are an effective way to grab customers’ attention and set yourself apart from competitors. Highly customizable and tailored specifically to your brand identity, these signs can be placed indoors or out depending on your business needs, with colors or fonts changed or logos included as desired.
A lighted channel letter sign typically consists of router-cut aluminum sheeting in standard colors or painted to match your company colors, while its face can either be front-lit or halo-lit depending on its design.
Front-lit channel letters are one of the most widely-used types of illuminated signage. Easy to read day or night, they’re cost-effective ways of increasing brand exposure for any business. Halo-lit channels, on the other hand, stand out more; their distinctive face made of transparent acrylic is used with spacers to create the “halo” effect and add an eye-catching element.
Durability
Channel letter signs are resilient and require regular upkeep, from washing away dirt to keeping out pests from their wires and protecting it against rain or wind. In addition, it’s essential that LED lighting works correctly; your signage expert should be able to assist in this regard.
Your sign’s style also plays an integral part in its durability, so choose fonts which are legible from a distance and match those used in your branding materials. Also take into consideration color as this should accentuate the colors of your building and help it stand out among competitors.
Some businesses, like restaurants and pubs, remain open late into the night, necessitating an illuminated sign visible at night that uses LED technology. LED is a more energy efficient solution than neon for this use and produces vivid glowing lights at lower operating costs than neon signs.
Recyclable
Instead of neon, which uses high voltage and must be frequently replaced, LED lighting uses less electricity and lasts much longer, making it an environmentally-friendly solution. Furthermore, you can customize these signs easily according to your branding goals.
These signs come in various colors, with backlighting options that create an eye-catching effect. Black and white faces create an arresting transition between day and night; making these signs ideal for giving old signage or vertical surfaces that identify your organization a stylish makeover.
Front-lit channel letters are one of the most widely used types of signage and provide great visibility. Lit by LED lighting shining through an acrylic face, they can be raceway mounted or flush mounted as needed and reverse-lit for a classic neon effect – ideal for bars, restaurants and businesses looking for classic neon signage.
Affordable
Channel letter signs are an effective way of making your business visible at night, especially when illuminated with LED lighting. They’re ideal for restaurants, bars, convenience stores, and other businesses open after dark; when properly designed and maintained they attract customers easily – making them an economical solution that’s sure to get attention.
LED modules use low-voltage lighting that is much safer for users and the environment than neon tubing, plus they last longer and cost less to operate than neon tubes. Plus, they’re all UL listed to meet safety regulations.
Front-lit channel letters are easily seen day and night thanks to their acrylic face that can be customized in various colors. Backlighting creates a halo effect around the letters while animated LED modules cascade in marquee-style moving patterns or programmed with various colors such as bold monotones that match your brand colors or rainbow hues that cycle at regular intervals.
