One of the most effective and versatile types of signage you can choose for your business is a channel letter sign. Channel letter signs are three-dimensional signs that combine acrylic, aluminum, and LED illumination. These signs are typically mounted on a storefront and are available in a wide variety of sizes and styles.
One of the biggest benefits of channel letter signage is visibility. Their design can be easily seen and read both from long distances and different angles. These signs offer a clean and professional look for your brand. Channel letter signs are easy to install and are durable against the elements.
What are the Components of a Quality Channel Letter Sign?
A channel letter sign is made of five key pieces. Each one is critical for providing the reliable, sustainable, durable, and brilliant display that you expect from your signage. The first part of the channel letter sign is the face, which is typically acrylic but may be aluminum for back-lit signs. Attached to the face is the trim cap. With a soft acrylic feature, the trim cap holds the face directly to the structured aluminum channel. The channel, also called a return, creates the depth of the sign. While the channel is a heavy-duty component, it is made from a lightweight piece of aluminum that is designed and manipulated to fit the shape of your sign. The channel also captures and determines the illumination of the sign. The fourth part of a channel letter sign is the backing. This piece can be either aluminum or acrylic. It is pre-shaped to match the channel and can be attached by punching, welding, or stapling. Last, but certainly not least, is the illumination element of the sign. Most channel letter signs utilize LED lighting for its efficiency and brightness.
