Face & Halo-Lit Channel Letters

Dual-Illumination LED Letters for Premium Architectural Signage

Face & Halo-Lit Channel Letters combine two powerful lighting effects into a single premium signage system. Designed with both front-facing illumination and reverse halo glow, these dual-lit letters deliver exceptional brightness, dimensional depth, and architectural elegance.

The front acrylic face projects bright LED illumination outward for maximum visibility, while internal LEDs also emit light through a rear acrylic diffuser to create a soft halo glow on the mounting surface. This dual-illumination design enhances both daytime presence and nighttime impact.

What Are Dual-Lit Channel Letters?

Dual-lit channel letters integrate:

• Forward LED illumination through a translucent acrylic face

• Reverse LED halo glow projected from the back

• Fabricated stainless steel or aluminum returns for structure

• Internal LED modules configured for dual lighting output

This combination provides:

• High readability from distance

• Refined architectural glow

• Strong dimensional shadow lines

• Enhanced nighttime visibility

They are particularly suited for brands seeking a bold yet sophisticated illuminated identity.

Key Features

• Dual illumination: front face brightness + halo glow

• Acrylic face and acrylic back diffuser

• Stainless steel or aluminum fabricated returns

• UL Certified LED modules

• UL Certified power supply included

• Energy-efficient LED system

• Suitable for indoor and outdoor use

• Flush or stud mount installation options

• Rear wall access required for wiring

Construction & Materials

These letters are fabricated using:

• Formed and welded stainless steel or aluminum returns

• Illuminated translucent acrylic face

• Acrylic back diffuser panel for halo effect

• Commercial-grade internal LED modules

The construction is engineered to deliver long-term durability in architectural environments while maintaining premium aesthetics.

Illumination System

The dual LED configuration provides:

• Bright forward illumination through the acrylic face

• Reverse halo glow projected onto the mounting surface

• UL Certified LED modules for commercial compliance

• Low-voltage system (12V / 24V DC)

• Energy-efficient performance

Available LED color options include:

• Warm White

• Cool White

• Standard solid colors

• Independent face and halo color combinations

• Optional RGB color-changing system

Minimum Return Depth

• 2.5 inches minimum depth

The deeper return enhances internal light diffusion and halo projection while increasing dimensional presence.

Mounting Options

Flush Mount

Letters mount directly against the wall surface, creating a tight architectural appearance with controlled halo projection.

Stud Mount

Letters project slightly from the wall using threaded studs. This spacing enhances halo diffusion and increases shadow depth.

Rear wall access is mandatory for routing wiring and connecting to the power supply.

Common Applications

Face & halo-lit channel letters are frequently installed on:

• Corporate headquarters

• Luxury retail storefronts

• Hospitality properties

• Executive office buildings

• Commercial office towers

• Mixed-use developments

• Monument signage

They are especially suited for high-end commercial environments where both brightness and sophistication are required.

Installation

Each order includes a full-scale installation template indicating mounting holes and wire pass-through locations.

Mechanical Installation

1. Position the full-scale template and level properly

2. Mark mounting holes and wiring pass-through points

3. Drill mounting and wiring holes

4. Remove template

5. Insert anchors where required

6. Install letters using flush or stud mount configuration

Electrical Wiring Installation

1. Pull wiring through rear wall access holes

2. Identify positive (+) and negative (–) wires from each letter

3. Connect all negative wires together

4. Connect all positive wires together

5. Connect grouped wires to UL Certified power supply

6. Secure transformer in accessible location

7. Test illumination (including RGB if applicable)

8. Final secure mounting

Correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative) is essential for safe LED operation.

Licensed electrical installation is strongly recommended for commercial compliance and safety.
