The construction on the bench, before finishing and packing.
The Problem
Why This Build Exists
Front illumination turns a metal letter into a plastic one — the face has to be translucent, and the metal you paid for disappears at night.
Where it fits. Reception walls, hotel lobbies, restaurant interiors and premium retail frontages.
Letters are computer-cut for precision, fully welded, and painted to the PMS or RAL reference you supply.
From Enquiry to Delivery
How We Build It
Four stages, run the same way on every order, which is what makes a repeat set match the original.
Stage 1
The letter is built with an open back and mounted on stand-offs
Stage 2
Modules are laid out to wash the wall evenly rather than to spot it
Stage 3
Stand-off distance is set against the wall colour and texture
Stage 4
Approved CE, RoHS and UL modules and power supplies are used throughout
Approval first
Nothing is cut until you have signed off a drawing showing letter heights, return depth, finish and the colour reference.
Fabrication window
5 to 7 days on the bench once the drawing is approved.
Packing and transit
Individually wrapped, packed flat, 4 to 5 days by DHL, UPS or FedEx — or by sea or air where the packed volume justifies it.

Answers
Questions About Halo-Lit and Backlit Letters
How do you handle payment?
By T/T, PayPal or Western Union.
Can you ship by sea instead of courier?
Yes. We arrange shipping by sea, by air or by courier, chosen against the size of the packed order.
How are the letters installed?
Every set ships as a ready-to-install kit with a 1:1 mounting template. The template is drilled from the same file the letters were cut from, so the set-out matches the artwork exactly.
What is the minimum order quantity?
TBC — the source material for this catalogue does not state a minimum order quantity. Send your artwork and we will confirm it with the quotation.
Can these letters be illuminated?
Yes. Direct illumination lights the face and indirect illumination puts the light behind the letter as a halo. Tell us which before fabrication, because it changes the return depth.
