Channel Letters – Face Lit
Face lit channel letters have acrylic faces, which can be in a variety of colors, as well as white acrylic with a translucent vinyl overlay for an even greater selection of colors. The faces are mounted to the aluminum or metal return using a trim cap edge. The letters can be internally illuminated using an LED lighting system. They can be mounted either directly to the wall individually or mounted on a metal rectangular box called a raceway. The individual mounting looks much better than the raceway mounting because the raceways tend to be distracting and create unwanted shadows. However, many landlords prefer the raceway style of mounting because it requires fewer holes made on the building facade. Raceways are also required in case of limited access in the building facade for the electrical hook-up of the sign.
Channel Letters – Face Lit & Halo Lit
Both face lit and halo lit channel letters are typically crafted from durable materials like aluminum, and the lighting can be achieved using energy-efficient LEDs. The choice between these two types depends on your branding, aesthetic preferences, and the message you want to convey. Whichever you choose, channel letters are a powerful way to enhance your business’s visibility and make a memorable impression on passersby.
Channel Letters – Reverse Halo Lit
This type of lettering is designed to be mounted to the wall approximately 1.5″ off the wall and create a halo-lit effect at night with a soft glow around the letters. The illumination can be created with LED lighting. The illumination is not as bright as standard channel lettering, but it creates a very soft, elegant, and modern look for your business.
Channel Letters – Edge Lit
Edge lit channel letters are a contemporary and captivating variant of traditional channel letter signage. In this innovative design, the illumination source is located on the letter’s edges, creating a striking and visually appealing effect. These letters are characterized by their sleek and minimalist appearance.
We pride ourselves in ensuring each Channel Letter design highlights a business according to brand specifics and provides optimal exposure by day or by night. Illuminated Channel Letters by Sign Zone will help you to outshine the competition and provide extra visibility to stand out amid crowded infrastructure.
