About LED backlit signs

Description

LED backlit signs work well both indoors & outdoors, whether day or night, the excellent halo effect makes your sign always be the focus, fit for business, building and home. The amazing halo effect would make the 3D metal signs appear to be “floating” on the wall, it’s so special, beautiful and eye-catching. It is also called as LED halo lit signs or LED reverse channel sign, it’s individual and 3D, only the back-panel is lighted. It is one of the most common LED illuminated signs, be widely used exterior and interior, include:

  • Businesses: bar, store, hotel, restaurant, hair salon, SPA, dental clinic and law firm etc.
  • Organisation: hospital, school, library, museum and church etc.
  • Indoor: Office, lobby, reception and restroom etc.
  • Outdoor: Building, wall, storefront and house etc.

Models

Based on different acrylic back-panel, we divided the LED backlit signs into two models:

  • Luxury model: Parts of the acrylic back-panel are exposed out of the 3D metal signs shell, this kind of signs need not be off the wall, people can see the lighting from the visible acrylic back-panel directly. The brightness is very good and the halo effect is strong. Used for luxury brand stores mostly.
  • Common model: The acrylic back-panel is in the 3D metal signs shell, be used to get the uniform lighting. The lighting must be reflected by the backing wall before it can be seen by people. Considering the reflectivity of the wall, the brightness of this model is good, but poorer than the luxury model. Although the halo effect is still very beautiful, it is poorer than the luxury model too. This type of sign must be off the wall, we recommend the common model off the wall about 10mm~20mm(0.4”~0.8”) for the best halo effect.

Installation

We recommend hiring a professional installer to finish the installation job. Because needing to use the stud bolts to fix on the backing wall, will drill holes on the wall for the stud bolts and cables also need to connect cables, professional installers can make the signage have much better final effect. Of course, if you have enough hands-on ability and are a licensed electrician, you can try to install it yourself.

Maintain

The maintenance job is really simple. Only needs a soft cloth with seldom clean fresh water. It is not recommended to wipe with a cleaning solution containing alcohol or other organic ingredients to avoid damaging the outside of the shell, especially when the finish of the metal signs shell surface are painted, powder coated or plated.

FAQ about LED backlit signs

If you have any additional questions about the signs or our services, feel free to contact us.

Our head office is in Shenzhen, China, and we have an office in Shanghai, China.

Our signs products are waterproof and weatherproof. If you are concerned about this, please let us know the climate characteristics of your area, such as strong sunlight or heavy rain, so that we can provide targeted protection measures for the backlit signs.

Depending on the type and quantity of ordered signs, we generally need about 15 business days to complete the production. We use the DHL door to door delivery service by default, which takes about 3-5 days for the delivery. So the lead time would be about 18 business days.

Sorry, we are sign makers in China, till now we still do not have an office or showroom outside of China.

We have ISO9001, ISO14001, OHSAS18001, UL, etc.

We are very cautious about accepting someone as our agent. We suggest starting with simple cooperation, having a deeper understanding between each other and then talking about becoming our agent is more feasible.

Min. width of strokes is the Min. distance between the two edges of a stroke, measured perpendicular to the stroke center line.

This data determines whether the design file could be the really signed products. For LED illuminating signs, the uniformity of illumination largely determines the final effect of the signage. If the data is too small, that means we can not place the LED lights in the signage shell evenly, and even would cause that we can not finish the fabricated metal signage shell.

So in general, for the LED backlit signs:

  • using non-serif fonts and script fonts, we need the Min. width of the strokes reach 10mm at least.
  • using serif fonts, such as the famous Times New Roman font, we need the Min. width of the strokes reach 10mm at least for the main part and 5mm for the serif part.

In order to make the LED backlit letters have a uniform lighting effect, we suggest the Min. height of the letters reach 100mm at least.

Too small letters, such as less than 50mm height, even if we can finish the fabricated metal signs shell, still could not place evenly and enough LED lights in the signage shell, then the backlit signs could not have the good halo effect.

You may be charged customs duties and taxes by your local customs for something you order from us, because duties and taxes are not included in the price of the item, and would not be included in the overall shipping costs.

The taxes depend on the goods value mostly. Different countries may have different tax policies. It’s always best to confirm this with your local customs authority.

The HS-code of the LED backlit signs is 94056000,based on the HS-code and the goods value, your local customs should be able to tell you the tariffs already.

Yes, you can use the custom font for your signage. Please send us the fonts file you need. If it is not a free font, before you order the fonts, we suggest you contact us at first, for the font you choose does not fit to be the backlit signs, it might not have enough space to place the LEDs for some font with thin strokes.

Our backlit signs are all customized, so we do not have the stand fonts. But we need to place the LED inside the signs case, so if the strokes of the font you choose are too thin, we need to make them bold, so that we have enough space to place the LED evenly.

We prefer a vector format design file with all fonts and objects converted to “curves” or “paths”, if possible.
Other file formats such as .jpg or .png are bitmap, which could not give us enough detail to know the exact cost, only could be used to know the ballpark price.

Since we need to place the LED in the signage shell evenly, so that the lighting of the signs is uniform. We need the Min. width of the strokes reach 10mm(0.4″) at least, and the height of the signs be more than 10mm(4″) , then your logo might be the backlit signs. We will discuss this on a case by case basis.

Yes. Depending on the type of backlit signs and its uses, we can match according to your needs.

Yes, the photo helps us to know the surroundings and the building style better and also helps us judge the best method for the installation.

Sorry, we can not give any price over the call, since our backlit signs are all customized, different details would cause different costs. We can not get enough detail over the call. Using our “Free Quote” form would be better.

We are very proud to provide you with a timely and professional customized signs service. Under normal circumstances you will receive our sales reply within one business day. If it is a big signage case, such as having dozens of different signage items, it might take 2~3 business days or even longer, but we will try our best to give you the price soon.

Well, you always can find a supplier with a lower price, but mostly when you pay cheap then you will get the cheap. We are not the best choice if you only want to find a lower price, but we are the best signage supplier with good quality, good service with reasonable price. Our signage products are worth every penny you pay.

You only realize the difference when you have the cheap and nasty signage products in your hand, sometimes even after a terrible experience, then it would be too late, you waste the money and time already. However, we have built our reputation on quality and will keep it that way.

That being said, if you do have a lower price, we would be happy to evaluate it for you. We will see if it is possible to match while maintaining our quality and durability standards, or we will tell you if we feel that something on the quote does not seem likely to live up to what you are expecting.

Though we do not have the wholesale price, we offer a realistic discount for each order.

Because the LED half-life, after about 2-3 years the brightness of the LED lighting might be too weak, we suggest you renew the LED lighting at that time. But if you can accept the signage effect, don’t worry, the life-time of the LED lighting is more than 80k hours.

Just using the soft cloth with some fresh water is fine enough. If you need to remove any dirt and pollutants gathered from the environment, please use a good dishwashing soap and freshwater, using a very very light brush like a soft toothbrush or even a towel.
