Channel letters are an eye-catching form of signage that form out a business name or logo using individual letter and symbol shapes, illuminated either with neon or LED lighting to produce an eye-catching display that’s both appealing and effective.
Polycarbonate from TUFFAK(r) is 20 times more impact resistant than acrylic and offers great day or nighttime visibility. We utilize this high-performance material in our channel letter backs and faces.
Channel letters are an effective form of three-dimensional signage that can help your business stand out and attract more customers. Constructed of aluminum, channel letters can be illuminated at night using LED lighting for improved visibility – perfect for providing brand recognition! Installation will typically take several weeks; therefore it is important to factor this into your budgeting when budgeting for these types of signs.
Non-illuminated channel letters are an excellent solution for businesses that wish to save on power costs or are forbidden by landlords or local governments from installing illuminated signage. Custom made signs in different fonts and sizes are designed specifically to fit into storefronts or buildings, creating visually appealing signs that draw passersby in at night time. Illuminated letters offer increased customer attraction but may prove expensive and difficult to maintain over time.
Channel letter manufacturers specialize in designing signs that showcase brand names or simple logos to meet any business need. Their signs can be customized in font, color and illumination for enhanced storefront visibility at night.
Channel letters are generally constructed out of router-cut aluminum sheeting in various thicknesses. Their returns, also called sides, are then formed using computerized bending and shaping machines into the shape of their back using 3-8″ depth returns.
LED “string” modules can then be inserted into the return to illuminate the back of the sign. Once illuminated, its face becomes visible from a distance while side faces emit a halo effect when illuminated – creating an appealing effect when lit from within. You can choose among various lighting styles to highlight specific messages.
Channel letter signage offers businesses looking for eye-catching signs an affordable and sustainable option that won’t fade or degrade over time. Customizable to meet branding needs and energy efficiency considerations, channel letter signs can withstand harsh weather without degrading over time.
Such signs can often be seen on storefronts and company buildings, typically featuring metal letters to spell out company name/logo as well as neon or LED lighting modules in a can. You can mount this type of sign flush against your building or hang it from a raceway.
Signs like these are widely utilized for their ability to draw customers in during the night and increase visibility, drawing in customers through increased customer traffic. Customizable with any word or slogan you want them to display and easy maintenance make these signs ideal for any company.
Channel letter signs are three-dimensional alphanumeric symbols used to brand businesses, stores, hospitals and offices. They can be illuminated or unlit and come in an assortment of fonts, designs and sizes – making it one of the most versatile and customizable forms of signage.
Backs of channel letters are made from aluminum and bent using automatic letter bending machines with precise measurements to create their desired shapes and sizes. Their sides, known as returns, may be painted in any color chosen by the client while their faces typically comprise acrylic or polycarbonate that can be coated with vinyl to enhance illumination of their sign face or be attached via welding or trim caps.
For an easier, more durable installation, raceway mounting of channel letters may be the way to go. A metal raceway holds power supplies and wiring for each letter while matching building facades by being painted to match. This installation method is particularly popular among landlords and property managers because it requires less drilling into building walls.
