Channel Letter Signs Philadelphia

Businesses can use channel letters in many different ways. Outdoors, these signs are popularly used to display a business's name on its building or storefront, making it easy to spot. They can also be put on freestanding signs like monument signs and pylon signs. Indoors, channel letters are great as lobby signs, wall signs, and the like.

Channel letters can be customized to match the exact font of your company logo. However, with logos that have graphics, we use the same method to create different shapes and forms. We can also do a polycarbonate front or vinyl overlay if an image is needed on the front face.

We offer several mounting options for channel letters. Flush mounting is the most common where the letters are attached directly to the building. Raceway mounting is when the letters are attached to a raceway before mounting to the building.

Channel letters on signs refer to the three-dimensional letters that form a word or phrase to display your message. Often, these are used to display your business name and logo. Channel letters are made with either aluminum, acrylic, or both. They can be used as storefront signs, monument signs, pylon signs, and more.

Channel letters are usually made of aluminum and acrylic material. The back part and returns (or sides) are usually made with a flat aluminum sheet that's laser-cut to create the design you need. The front is typically made with acrylic material. This allows light to shine through when you choose lighted signage.

Reverse channel letters are often also referred to as backlit and halo-lit channel letters. These are illuminated channel letters with the light installed at the back of the sign. It is then installed away from its mounting surface. This gives the sign a glow or "halo" around each letter when lit.

Flush mount channel letters are also referred to as direct mounts. These are mounted directly onto the wall or surface. Typically, the power supply or electrical elements are set up behind the walls. This makes your sign look seamless and professional, especially with the power source hidden behind the wall or surface.

With the most common channel letter sign types, the LED lights are found within the sign. This lights up the front face of your sign, giving it a bright, vibrant look. However, LEDs can also be installed at the back of your sign. This creates a warm glow at the back of each letter.

The cost of channel letter signs varies depending on multiple elements. This includes the type of sign, size, design, number of letters, and more. The installation plays a part in the overall cost. It's best to contact your local sign maker to get an exact quote. Contact Sunrise Signs today.
