Backlit acrylic sign glowing on a brick wall

Halo-lit and backlit options

Three constructions, one soft-glow effect.

Halo-Lit Channel Letters

Individual fabricated letters with LEDs inside that project light backward onto the wall. Each letter gets a halo; the face stays unlit metal or acrylic.

Backlit Acrylic Panels

Your design on a clear or frosted acrylic panel, lit from behind so the whole panel glows. A clean look for logos and studio walls.

Backlit Metal Panels

A metal panel with the design cut through and lit from within — the letters or logo glow while the panel stays matte.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does halo-lit actually mean?

The LEDs sit inside each letter and shine backward onto the mounting surface. From the front you see a dark, solid letter surrounded by a soft outline of light — the halo.
Where do halo-lit signs work best?

Reception walls, law and medical offices, salons and studios, restaurants, and any storefront that wants to look premium rather than loud. They read especially well at night and in dim interiors.
Can I dim a halo-lit sign?

Most of our LED signs can run on a dimmer — mention it in your quote request and we'll include the right setup.
Indoor or outdoor?

Both. Tell us where the sign will live on the quote form and we'll build it for that environment.
How long does production take?

Typically 7–10 business days once you approve the design and pay. Rush production is available.
