Gold-tone halo-lit channel letters with individual leads
Lux Signage Co. supplies custom halo-lit channel letters to U.S. sign companies. This five-foot layout combined dimensional lettering with a separate emblem. The original workshop detail shows the gold-tone return, rear layer, and mounting studs.
The brief
A dimensional sign with a rear glow.
The buyer reviewed updated renderings for a five-foot halo-lit sign while also considering a separate hanging sign. When ready to order, the buyer asked about timing for the channel letters. This case covers the paid halo-lit build.
Lux carried the five-foot layout into a revised shop drawing. During the handoff after quality checks, the buyer asked about wire length and Lux confirmed approximately 6.5 feet of lead from each letter.
What wiring detail should a sign shop ask about when quoting halo-lit channel letters?
Ask where the individual leads will exit and how much length is available to reach the planned power location. Lux confirmed approximately 6.5 feet of lead from each letter on this order. Send your artwork and any known wall or power details, and Lux can review the routing for your project.
