Channel letters LED lights offer the ideal way to increase brand visibility at night. As they consume less energy and last longer than neon signs, channel letters LEDs offer greater brand exposure at nighttime.

Illuminated channel letters consist of metal faces, aluminum backings, and returns (called sidelights ). They can be lit either frontally or backward.

Face Lit

Channel letters are three-dimensional letters created from fabric or formed steel that may be illuminated or non-illuminated, making them one of the most widely used exterior signs. Used independently or integrated into monument or pylon signs, channel letters use LED lighting for greater energy savings than neon.

Face Lit Channel Letters feature an acrylic face which allows LED illumination from within to shine through, and are equipped with a trim cap which wraps around their sides to protect them and is available in materials such as stainless steel or aluminum; they can even be bent into various shapes to match the sign’s design.

These front lit channel letters can be raceway mounted or directly flush mounted onto walls for easy visibility day and night. Ideal for malls and retail centers.

Halo Lit

Halo-illuminated signs provide an elegant alternative to front lit signs, offering the visual impact of reverse lit channel letters while producing an eye-catching “halo effect” on any building wall behind it. Ideal for shopping centers, malls, corporate headquarters and restaurants as well.

Halo-lit signs differ from front-lit ones in that their back panels are translucent, allowing up to 85-95% of light through. This creates an ethereal glow around each letter that makes it stand out on your business’s facade at night.

Channel letter signs are typically placed a few inches from buildings to ensure uniform illumination and avoid interference with walls. Halo lit channel letter signs can help draw customers in; Master Kim’s Taekwondo in Henrietta NY uses one such set.

Combination Lit

Channel letters attract passersby with their luminous acrylic faces that permit 85-95% of light through. These durable and attractive signs come in various fonts, colors and styles to meet your brand identity – including polished stainless steel channels with returns that come with either brushed, polished, satin/brushed or painted finishes for greater visual impact.

Back Lit or Halo Lit channel letters combine elements from both Front Lit and Halo styles of channel lettering, lighting the faces of each letter while still creating the halo effect around them to add 3D depth and dimension to their look. They create an eye-catching appearance which stands out day or night and makes signage come alive!

No matter the size of your business, LED first-surface channel letter signs can help attract customers and drive sales. They’re easy to maintain while using less energy than traditional lights.

Backlit

Channel letters often use LED lighting, providing substantial energy cost savings over neon or other alternatives. This form of signage is widely utilized across shopping centers, restaurants, airports and many other commercial structures.

SloanLED provides an extensive range of LED modules suitable for face lit and halo lit channels, offering products tailored specifically for various can depths, face sizes and routing applications.

Formed channel letter signs utilize a plastic backer with a raised lip and an acrylic cover that snaps over it to form channel letter signs. These translucent light-diffusing colored plastic covers allow light to emanate through both their face and sides for greater illumination, as well as offering different colored illumination or creating a halo effect with cut vinyl applied directly onto their faces for different effects.

Backlit or reverse halo channel letters offer an alternate version of front-lit signs by using internal LED lighting to outline your company name and create an eye-catching halo effect around its logo, creating an eye-catching and memorable appearance for your business. This gives it more prestigious appeal.
