LED Channel Letters make for excellent storefront signage solutions, offering more dimension than flat cut and cast metal letters and easily being manufactured to any size or configuration desired.
This type of sign features an opal white acrylic face which allows LED illumination from within to pass through it, with aluminum returns and back that can either be open or closed depending on your desired lighting effect.
Face-Lit
Face-lit channel letters use light projection to illuminate each character from their front, making them visible from afar and easy to read at night. Face-lit letters are ideal for sign projects that require a classy or distinguished look or brand image and to minimize light pollution in locations with strict regulations or specifications for signs.
Signs like these are frequently found in shopping malls and office buildings, offering various font and dimension choices as well as raceway or flush mounting capabilities.
LED illuminated letters feature transparent acrylic faces to allow LED illumination to filter through, with aluminum returns and backs framing them, creating the “halo” effect. Color designs can be added for branding and marketing needs; either using trim caps to secure in place or through new improved processes which create trimless faces; both methods provide equally effective signs. Finally, plug-n-play modules make installation easy.
Reverse-Lit
Reverse-lit channel letters are an increasingly popular choice among businesses that prioritize an upscale image. Constructed using aluminum faces and returns, reverse-lit letters are lit from behind, creating a halo effect. Also referred to as backlit or halo lit channel letters, reverse-lit channel letters come in many colors, fonts, depths of illumination as well as clear backs that prevent nesting animals and debris from nesting inside their sign faces.
These types of channel letter signs are ideal for large outdoor areas and can draw passersby’s attention both during the daytime and night. There are various mounting methods available including raceway mounts, direct or flush mounts and backer mounts.
Signs can be created using various materials, including aluminum and acrylic, to match a brand’s colors and font style, while being tailored specifically to fit into any storefront space.
Dual-Lit
If you want an eye-catching sign that stands out during both daytime and nighttime viewing, a dual-lit channel letter could be the ideal solution. These signs combine the best elements from both halo-lit and front back lit channels; and are cost efficient than their traditional front lit counterparts.
Dual-lit channel letters feature aluminum faces and acrylic returns illuminated by LED lighting behind the acrylic, creating an eye-catching “halo” effect around each letter. They’re popular choices for commercial or retail locations.
This type of signage is easy to set up, customizable with your company logo, and low maintenance costs as its LED bulbs are easily replaceable. Furthermore, its durability stands up well against harsh weather conditions; plus its various sizes make it suitable for businesses of any size; both indoor and outdoor installation are possible and it comes in different colors and styles to coordinate with monument or pylon signs.
Fabricated
These illuminated signs, commonly found in malls and office buildings, are ideal for increasing brand recognition. High visibility and attention-grabbing, they attract the viewer’s eye while remaining durable – ideal for use both indoors and outdoors.

Front lit channel letters are the standard and most prevalent form of illuminated signage, typically constructed out of aluminum backs and sides called returns with acrylic faces that have been custom painted to your desired color.
