LED channel letter lighting can help businesses increase their visibility after dark. They’re effective, easy to install and utilize LED bulbs with longer lifespan than neon.

Your sign’s lifespan depends on its placement. Signs exposed to elements will deteriorate faster due to salt air corrosion and UV rays that fade colors or dim illumination.

Face Lit

Front lit channel letters are a popular sign type found in shopping malls or outdoor plazas, typically using illumination from only the face (front) of the sign to illuminate it. Available in an array of fonts and sizes, front lit channel letters provide companies with an effective means of standing out at night.

LED signs are constructed from acrylic facing and plastic trim caps, and come in various colors that work effectively during daytime and nighttime settings. As LEDs are wired parallel instead of series, if one lamp fails only that section will become dark; not an entire sign like would happen with neon or internally illuminated signs.

These signs can be raceway or flush mounted and customized to meet the signage needs of any business. We can customize acrylic face color, back panel material (pvc or stainless steel), led lighting color and font to meet those requirements.

Halo Lit

Halo lit channel letter signs feature lights installed behind them that produce back illumination and create a halo effect around their faces, drawing attention to your business day or night. Additionally, this style can also be combined with front-lit letters for added dimension and contrast in signage.

This sign style offers multiple LED color temperatures including Cool White (6500K) or Red, Green and Blue (RGB), providing even illumination across each letter for an appealing appearance.

Neon lighting may still have its uses for specialty applications, but its high voltage system requires more energy consumption and poses a fire hazard. Halo lit signs offer significant energy cost savings with their low voltage system that enables programable changes to lighting color and timing – plus you can turn it off during daylight hours to save on electricity usage costs.

Fabricated

Channel letter signs are self-contained three-dimensional metal (usually aluminum) or plastic fabricated objects that display one or more characters and may or may not be illuminated. They can be mounted directly onto buildings, as well as mounted along raceways for easier mounting with reduced building penetrations.

Channel letters typically feature translucent light-diffusing colored plastic faces that allow up to 85% of LED color through, creating a professional finish while keeping moisture at bay. A trim cap may also be added for aesthetic reasons and moisture control.

Illuminated building channel letters are an effective way to advertise and increase business visibility at night, especially retail signage and monument signs. Before selecting one for use in your business, however, it’s essential that you understand their different types and how they operate – this includes understanding which material it was made with as well as its installation site location.

Digital

Neon tubes have become obsolete as LED lighting has taken over as the preferred solution for illuminated channel letters. LEDs offer superior illumination while using less power compared to their predecessors; saving on energy bills while decreasing maintenance costs is thus possible with these advances.

Lenses on LED strip channels play a vital role in light output. From clear, opaque or semi-opaque lenses that reduce bright spots while improving diffusion. A few major LED module manufacturers offer various lenses specifically for their LED strip lights.

GE’s Tetra LED modules employ an optic that optimizes LED performance by redirecting its native beam angle in order to provide more uniform illumination over a larger surface area. This enables one string instead of two strings to illuminate five-inch depth capitol Ts correctly – offering dramatic energy savings and higher ROI returns.
