Illuminated channel letter signs are an effective way of drawing customers in, especially after dark. With its variety of styles and options available to meet any storefront’s requirements.

SloanLED provides numerous lighting modules designed specifically to meet the requirements of channel letters and light boxes, helping reduce costs over time. Utilizing one or more of these options will reduce monthly expenditure.

Front Lit

Front lit channel letters are an eye-catching signage choice that can be customized to any font and logo. Illuminated via an acrylic face, these signs illuminate during both daytime and nighttime to catch passersby’s attention and draw their gaze in their path.

Back-lit channel letters (commonly known as reverse halo channel letters) offer an elegant appearance. Their construction includes opaque material on the backside of each sign with lighting directed toward its back surface to illuminate any surrounding building walls or backgrounds it may be attached to.

Fabricated halo lit channel letters offer an eye-catching way to combine the best elements of both front and back-lit signs, making for a truly versatile sign option that stands out. Highly customizable to match your company’s aesthetic with options of colors, fonts, sizes and more to choose from – these signs also boast low maintenance costs and energy savings compared with conventional signs – usually lasting 10 years but lasting even longer when kept cool or turned off after extended use.

Backlit

Backlit LED channel letters provide your storefront with a bright, uniform glow to draw in customers day or night. An energy efficient way of adding more visible advertising for your business, they draw immediate attention day or night.

These signs offer businesses looking for a modern and professional aesthetic an excellent signage option. Compared with neon which can easily break, LED signs use over 80% less power thus saving on monthly electrical costs.

Reverse channel letters (RCLs) are increasingly becoming a popular sign choice due to the halo effect created when lights shine from behind them instead of from front lit channel letters. RCLs offer greater versatility when applied across many applications than standard front lit channel letters do, including retail displays, retail promotions, outdoor ads and much more.

Halo Lit

Halo illuminated channel letter signs bring sophistication to any storefront by lighting each metal or acrylic letter from behind, giving them a soft glow that enhances definition and clarity in a custom fabricated sign project.

Giant Sign designed, manufactured and installed a set of LED channel letters for X Tech Bowling Supplies in Henrietta NY that feature halo lighting. At night the white LEDs reflect off of their lexan backs for an eye-catching glow against their brick facade facade.

These channel letters feature solid aluminum faces welded to aluminum returns and internal LED lighting. The lighting is placed at the rear of each letter and reflected off a clear Lexan backing, creating the halo effect. Removable backs allow licensed electricians to service LED modules and wires easily while optional detachable studs create 1.5″ standoff from walls for mounting purposes.

Fabricated

LED lighting allows your fabricated channel letters to be thinner and more energy-efficient than other forms of illumination. Selecting colors that complement either your brand image if front lit, or match face illumination when back-lit will help ensure that they look their best.

Fabricated channel letter signs attract passersby day or night, drawing their gaze toward your company branding image with its 3-D shape. You can use them alone or as part of larger ground signs like monument and pylon signs.

These signs are constructed with aluminum faces and welds to form a letter “can”, then painted before housing lighting components like neon gas tubes or more energy-efficient LED lights. A translucent acrylic face is cut to fit over its open face of the letter can and fastened securely to its trim cap border for a cleaner appearance. Using quality materials will increase their longevity in all weather conditions and help keep them looking brand new for years.
