Understanding
Channel Letters
Front Lit
Considered the “standard”, Front Lit Channel Letters (Standard) have translucent faces. Neon gas tubes or, more commonly, LED modules are used to illuminate the letters and each letter has an acrylic face and aluminum backing and is self-contained.
Key Benefits:
- Customizable, economical, easy to read
- Radiant light effect
- Upscale appearance
Halo Lit
Covered with aluminum to allow light to spill only from the edges and backs of each letter, producing the effect of a dark letter against a lighted backdrop. Letters are mounted so that when illuminated, the light creates a “halo effect” around each letter’s shape.
Key Benefits:
- Letter backs are covered (repels birds & insects)
- Dramatic “halo” light effect
- Excellent for night viewing
Front & Halo Lit
Combines both Front and Halo styles, lighting up the front of each letter from within, and also casting a bright light on the backdrop so each letter is dramatically highlighted. The backs of the letters near the mounting surface are transparent so some light creates a background halo.
Key Benefits:
- Combines benefits of Front & Halo Lit
- Very impactful and visible
- Can be different colours
Sign Boxes
An alternative to channel letters and can be made in any shape, size and design. They can be mounted (on a pole or storefront), non illuminated or illuminated (using fluorescent lamps, neon or, more commonly, LED technology).
Key Benefits
- Cost-effective
- Easy to install
- Strong, sturdy and long lasting
Flush & Raceway Mount
Contour-cut signage is cut out along the edge (contour) of a design or pre-determined custom line and typically has little to no border. Flush Mounted Channel Letters are individually mounted to a building façade using holes to mount the letters.
Key Benefits
- Customizable
- Good for unique shapes
- Very precise for consistency
Push Throughs
Takes a basic illuminated sign cabinet and adds dimension by making the letters appear to be pushing through the face of the sign, creating a more popped out look.
Key Benefits
- Endless design possibilities
- Signage literally “stands out”
- Suitable for both indoor and outdoor
