Illuminated Signs

Illuminated signs use lighting to increase visibility and draw attention to your sign. Especially if your business operates during evening hours, illuminated signage is a great option to make sure your signage is visible to potential clients. Here at Octagon Lincoln, we use energy-efficient LEDs for all illuminated signs so that you can reap the benefits of this style of signage while keeping costs low.

What We Cover

Illuminated Tray Signs

A tray sign is a flat panel folded on all four sides to resemble a tray, or ‘biscuit tin lid’. Your design is then cut from the panel to create a hollow outline or cut out and extended forward to create a three-dimensional effect. The outline or three-dimensional features are illuminated by LED lights hidden inside the tray.

Halo Lit Signage

The halo effect involves lighting up the area behind the sign or lettering. This results in a in a bold and illuminated border that draws attention to what’s in the centre.

Built Up Illuminate Lettering

Built-up letters, also known as 3D or channel letters, are moulded from durable materials to create a three-dimensional letter shape. Built-up letters can be illuminated by inserting LED lights inside the lettering or with a ‘halo effect’.

Illuminated Light Boxes

There’s a high chance you’ve seen lightbox signage when out and about on your daily commute. This kind of signage resembles a thin box shape with a semi-translucent face printed on plastic, acrylic or vinyl. Lightbox signs are lit internally which makes the face of the sign appear as if it is going. Lightbox signs are a win-win as they reap the benefits of light-up signs without coming across as overpowering, or ‘too much’.

Benefits of Illuminated Signs

LED signs are easily visible in all lighting conditions, including at night or in low-light environments. This ensures that your business is noticed 24/7, increasing brand exposure & drawing attention from customers even after business hours.

A well-designed illuminated sign can reinforce your brand’s identity and create a lasting impression. The use of lighting can make logos, colors, and messages stand out, contributing to stronger brand recognition.

The visual appeal of illuminated signage can attract the attention of passersby and potential customers, especially in high-traffic areas. This can lead to an increase in foot traffic and impulse visits, directly contributing to sales.

Illuminated signs convey a sense of professionalism and quality. They can elevate the perceived status of your business and make your storefront look modern, well-maintained, and inviting, contributing to customer trust and confidence in your brand.
