Customization

Channel letters are versatile metal or plastic-fabricated signs commonly found as exterior signage in stores, strip malls, public buildings and offices. While most channel letters feature illumination capabilities – it’s not necessary.

Formed channel letters feature a molded base that snaps securely into a plastic cover with a recessed lip to hold them in place. Their plastic faces may be either flat, round, prismatic (faceted), translucent or transparent color diffusing material for producing a halo effect when lit; additionally cut vinyl can also be applied directly onto these faces to further customize light effects and visual aesthetic.

Front-Lit Channel Letters feature an acrylic front surface and aluminum returns (sides), which can be illuminated frontally, reverse-lit or dual illuminated. Reverse-Lit Channel Letters use an aluminum back that has been formed into character shape before back-lighting with LED lighting to produce a halo effect; combination-Lit Channel Letters use both front-lit and rear-lit forms – for instance a red front lit sign could feature blue backlighting with an amber halo.

Durability

Channel letters offer various lighting options that make them suitable for day and night use, making them the ideal solution to draw attention and stand out among competitors. You can choose backlight, front lighting or even both forms simultaneously as you create an unforgettable image for any space – whether inside, outside, front lit or backlit! Channel letters make an impactful first impression that’s sure to get noticed and set you apart from competitors alike.

LED channel letters are highly durable, lasting far longer than neon signs and withstanding shock and vibration better, decreasing the risk of breakage during shipping or installation. Furthermore, they’re a greener solution and consume less energy compared to neon lighting solutions.

Channel letters are typically produced as individual pieces that can then be assembled together to form a sign. Constructed of plastic, aluminum or other metals, channel letters come in a range of shapes and sizes and may even come illuminated depending on client needs.

Aesthetics

Channel letters boast a more sophisticated look that makes them ideal for high-end businesses. Furthermore, these signs can be illuminated to increase visibility in dark parts of the city and attract customers more effectively.

These signs come in various colors to fit the aesthetic of your business, or LED backlighting can make letters glow at night; however, this option may be costly.

Reverse-lit channel letters provide the ideal way to achieve this halo effect, featuring aluminum front letters with transparent acrylic back panels producing a glowing halo around each letter – ideal for tall buildings or storefronts.

Trimless channel letters offer another viable option for signage applications in commercial and public buildings, featuring no trim cap and an acrylic face molded to form letters of your chosen lettering style. This sign is more cost-effective and streamlined than its alternatives while remaining impervious to corrosion – ideal for both offices and public facilities alike.

Installation

Channel letter signs are an attractive and efficient form of business signage. Their customizable appearance draws customers in day or night; commonly found in shopping plazas or retail centers but can also be installed on tall buildings.

Cost factors when ordering a channel letter sign vary based on its size and design; adding logos can drive prices higher, however. You also must decide between flush mounting or raceway mounting your sign – raceways provide for less drilling holes into walls compared to flush mounting as there is less need to drill as many holes will not need to be drilled through them into buildings.

Choose between front-lit or back-lit channel letters, or even halo-illuminated designs to make your store stand out in the crowd. All these lighting solutions are energy-efficient and produce less light pollution than other forms of lit signs.
