Types of Backlit Lobby Letters

Bilt Signs offers several types of backlit lobby letters to align with different brand aesthetics:

 

Reverse Channel Letters: These letters are fabricated from durable metal like stainless steel, aluminum, or acrylic. LEDs are placed inside the letters, casting a soft glow from behind that creates a halo effect.

 

Acrylic Backlit Letters: Lightweight and versatile, these letters are crafted from high-quality acrylic and paired with LED lighting for a consistent and uniform backlighting effect. Acrylic options are ideal for more intricate designs and logos.

 

Metal-Faced Acrylic Letters: These combine the durability of metal with the flexibility of acrylic. The metal face adds a sleek, upscale look, while the acrylic backing allows for even, diffused lighting.

Materials for Backlit Lobby Letters

The materials you choose for backlit letters can shape the look and feel of your lobby sign:

 

Acrylic: Known for its clarity and versatility, acrylic is an excellent choice for letters that need to convey a modern aesthetic. It can be cut into custom shapes and sizes, making it ideal for complex logos.

Aluminum: This lightweight yet durable metal is perfect for businesses seeking a premium look. Aluminum letters can be painted or powder-coated in various colors, providing numerous customization options.

Stainless Steel: For a high-end, long-lasting look, stainless steel is an exceptional choice. Its natural resistance to corrosion and sleek finish make it perfect for companies wanting a more sophisticated appearance.

Mounting Options

  • Flush Mount: For a sleek, direct-to-wall installation.
  • Standoff Mount: Creates depth between the wall and letters, enhancing the halo effect.

Backlit lobby letters are perfect for businesses seeking a durable and visually appealing signage solution. With a wide range of customization options, these signs are built to stand out while maintaining longevity.

 

Installation Considerations for Backlit Lobby Letters

Before selecting backlit sign letters, it’s important to note that an electrical junction is required behind the wall or in the ceiling above to power the LEDs. We provide the necessary power supply (transformer), but adequate access in the wall and ceiling will be needed for wiring. Backlighting can significantly increase both the cost of the letters and the installation. For more details on installation, refer to our FAQ and installation guides.

Backlit fabricated letters can also be mounted on panels, which simplifies installation when accessing wiring is challenging or the wall surface is unsuitable. This method allows you to connect the entire setup to a single electrical junction for easier installation and a cleaner look.
