Types of channel Letters that we deal in!
There are two main types of channel lettering: the “cut” ones that are made from solid material and the “hollow” ones that are made by creating boxes in the shape of the letters by welding sheet metal from materials such as aluminum or steel. The latter can be lit by inserting LED’s inside or without lighting.
With these types, there are hundreds of possible combinations to choose from, with different sources, materials, styles, sizes, and colors, and can be fully customized according to the corporate image of each company. Here at SignFreaks, we mainly deal with 4 types of Channel Letters including :
- Standard Front Lit Channel Letters : These are our best selling products. The standard front lit channel letters are made using aluminum and are illuminated internally through neon lights or LED’s. This makes the face of each letter light up.
- Halo Lit Channel Letters : Halo lit channel letters are usually known as reverse channel lit letters. These letters are made with aluminum and to create the halo effect, the letters are lifted off the wall or raceway. Then the LED’s or neon lights are inserted inside them to make them shine inside or outside.
- Open Face Channel Letters : As the name suggests, the open face channel letters are open from the face side so that the neon lights installed inside can be seen. The face and sides are made with aluminum and the lighting option is limited to neon lights.
- Front and Back lit Channel Letters : Front and Back lit channel letters are the combination of standard front lit channel letters and the halo lit Here again, the sides of the letters are made with aluminum, however, the faces are poly carbonate and the back is left open to reflect light off the wall. These are super fancy signs that pull visitors’ attention.
We make them all. With these types, we offer varied mounting options to display your unique signs. You can either choose:
- Direct Mounting : Direct mounting option is recommended when the appearance of letters is your top priority. In this case, the letters are attached directly to the building facade using a pattern with non-corrosive fastener and the wiring is housed behind the bulkhead wall or facade. It is also known as flush or Sand off mounting.
- Backer Mounting : In the Backer Mount option, the letters are installed on the metal cabinet or backer panel that is typically larger in height and width than the channel letter configuration. And all the wiring is either housed inside this cabinet or behind the bulkhead wall or facade.
- Raceway Mounting : Raceway mounting is similar to backer mounting. Here again, the channel letters are installed on a box made of metal and the wiring is housed inside it.
The advantages of installing channel letters are many!
The channel lettering offers multiple benefits to a brand or company as it is a very attractive means of visual communication.
- PROFESSIONALISM : Channel letters are a very elegant lettering solution, which conveys the feeling that a company takes great care of its brand image.
- VARIETY OF LIGHTING EFFECTS : The use of channel letters allows you to have a variety of light effects into your sign. You can use the halo effect that shines from inside, single-sided light or, multi-sided, etc.
- VERSATILITY IN PLACEMENT : Unlike other types of signs, the channel letters can be installed in different locations, both interior, and exterior.
- MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT : By presenting a smaller surface area than a panel, the illuminated signage letters require less energy to illuminate, and even less if the lighting system is LED.
