What are Front lit Channel Letters?
Front-lit channel letters are large, dimensional letters and characters used primarily for storefront signage. Constructed from acrylic faces and aluminum returns, these signs are illuminated with energy-efficient LEDs to produce bright, even front lighting. LED front-lit channel letter signs are a popular choice for businesses that want to attract attention and present a professional, modern storefront.
How front-lit channel letters are used
Primary illuminated storefront sign: Front-lit channel letters are commonly used as a business’s main exterior sign, mounted individually, on a raceway, or on a backer panel.
Brand visibility and wayfinding: Recognized by major brands and developers, front-lit channel letters are a key component of branding systems, retail development plans, and sign guidelines.
Architectural and design impact: The clean, contemporary look of front-lit LED letters complements building exteriors and creates a strong visual presence day and night.
Custom branding: Because letters can be fabricated in any font, size, or logo shape, front-lit channel letters are ideal for businesses seeking a distinctive and memorable storefront.
How front-lit channel letters are made
Face material: The letter face is cut from translucent acrylic, which lets LED light shine evenly through the front surface. Custom colours can be achieved with adding translucent vinyl
Returns and depth: The acrylic face is wrapped with an aluminum return to form the letter’s sides. Typical front-lit channel letters are 3" to 5" deep, providing architectural depth and space for illumination.
Illumination: LEDs are mounted inside the letter cavity to produce even front illumination. LEDs offer long life, low energy use, and consistent colour.
Customization: Channel letters are manufactured individually, allowing full customization of fonts, sizes, and logo shapes. Colored translucent vinyl can be applied to the acrylic face to expand design options and match brand colors.
