Channel letters are custom-made metal or plastic letters used in exterior signage, often illuminated internally by LED.
Flush mounted letters are attached directly to the building facade, while raceway mounted letters are attached to a metal box (raceway) that houses the wiring and power supply, which is then mounted to the building.
The journey from initial design to the final installation of your signage is a crucial period, filled with creativity, precision, and careful planning. It’s important to note that the timeframe for this process can vary significantly depending on several factors:
➤ Type of Signage: Different types of signs have different production and installation requirements. For instance, a simple banner might be ready much quicker than a custom-made channel letter sign or an intricate electronic message center.
➤ Design Complexity: The complexity of your design, and how quickly we can arrive at a final approved design, plays a big role. Collaborative and timely feedback during the design stage helps in speeding up the process.
➤ Material Availability: Depending on your specific needs, certain materials may need to be ordered, which can add time to the overall timeline.
➤ Permitting Process: For some types of signage, permits may be required, and the time it takes to obtain these can vary widely.
➤ Installation Requirements: The complexity of the installation – whether it’s a simple wall mount, a high-rise installation, or involves electrical work – can impact the timeline.
➤ External Factors: Weather conditions, especially for outdoor installations, and other unforeseen circumstances can also play a role.
