FAQs

Front-lit vs. halo-lit—what’s the difference?
Front-lit glows through the acrylic face. Halo-lit glows around the letter onto the wall. Combo does both.

Raceway or flush mount?
Raceway hides wiring and minimizes wall penetrations. Flush mounts each letter for the cleanest architectural look.

How bright are the LEDs and how long do they last?
High-efficiency modules with 50,000+ hour ratings; 6500K daylight. Proper spacing avoids hotspots.

Do I need a permit?
Usually for exterior installs. We provide spec drawings/UL info; your licensed installer files locally.

Can you match my brand color at night?
Yes—translucent films, acrylic colors, and RGB/RGBW LEDs (for halo or face) can be tuned to brand.
