LED Illumination Options

Frontlit, backlit, sidelit, edgelit or resin-faced: the choice changes the look far more than the price does.

Frontlit

Metal return and back, LEDs inside, acrylic face. The whole letter glows. Returns run typically 60mm to 100mm deep — the slimmer end suits thin and slim fonts. Returns are built in painted aluminum or brushed stainless depending on the build.

Backlit and halo

A solid metal face over a frosted acrylic back, pinned off the wall so the light washes the surface behind. By day it reads as plain metal. Halo builds in the catalogue use a 30mm thick frosted acrylic back.

Sidelit, edgelit and resin

Sidelit and edgelit builds put the light out through the acrylic edge — a thin line of color rather than a lit face. Resin-faced letters take a stainless side and back with a resin front, and go down to a 25mm minimum depth, which is the slimmest lit build listed.

What is supplied

Every illuminated build ships with a 12V DC CE and RoHS approved transformer, a 1:1 scale mounting template and the screw pins or bolts for that fixing method.

LED Illumination Options — common questions

Which build is brightest?

Frontlit, comfortably. If the sign must be legible across a car park at night, that is the build. Halo is about atmosphere at close and medium range, not distance legibility.

What transformer is supplied?

A 12V DC CE and RoHS approved transformer, included with every illuminated build along with the 1:1 mounting template and fixings.

How slim can a lit letter go?

The resin-faced build is listed with a 25mm minimum depth, the slimmest lit option in the catalogue. Standard frontlit returns run typically 60mm to 100mm.
