Category questions
Answers for this product type.
Which sign formats can be illuminated?
Channel letters, cabinet signs, push-through letters and selected dimensional signs can incorporate internal or indirect lighting.
How does ambient light affect the sign?
Bright surroundings may require stronger contrast, while darker properties often benefit from controlled output that keeps edges legible.
Should the sign also work during the day?
Yes. Face color, returns, backing and mounting should provide clear identification even when illumination is off.
