CHANNEL LETTER GUIDE
Channel letters are individual three-dimensional letters or logo shapes, commonly used as illuminated storefront signs. The lighting direction changes how the sign reads during the day and after dark.
Light passes through the face of each letter. This is the direct, high-visibility choice for storefronts that need clear nighttime readability.
Common fit: retail, restaurants and busy commercial facadesAlso called backlit or reverse-lit letters, this style throws light onto the wall behind each letter to create a softer outline.
Common fit: offices, hospitality and architectural entrancesIlluminated faces and a rear halo create two layers of light. The wall colour and mounting surface become part of the final effect.
Common fit: brands wanting stronger depth after darkPLAN THE INSTALLATION
Channel-letter specifications depend on the facade, access, wiring route and local requirements. We review the information you send before the final proof and production plan are approved.
Individual letters attach to the facade. The wall construction and cable route need to be confirmed before this method is specified.
Letters attach to a shared enclosure that can contain electrical components and reduce the number of facade penetrations.
A larger panel creates a controlled background for the letters and can help organize the complete sign composition.
SPECIALTY CHANNEL LETTERS
Infinity-mirror letters create a repeated tunnel of light. Marquee letters use visible bulbs for a warmer, event-led look. Both are quoted to the artwork, scale and placement.
CHANNEL LETTER STYLE

CHANNEL LETTER STYLE
Custom marquee channel letters use individual bulbs across the face of each letter to create the classic look associated with marquee signs and light-up letters. The lettering becomes part of the display, not simply a label on the wall.

CHANNEL LETTER FAQ
Channel letters are individual three-dimensional letters or logo shapes used for storefront and building signage. They can be front-lit, halo-lit, lit from both directions or produced in a specialty style.
Front-lit letters shine through the face for direct visibility. Halo-lit, backlit or reverse-lit letters project light onto the wall behind them, creating an illuminated outline around each letter.
Send the best artwork you have, along with the available sign width and a photo of the installation area. The quote and digital proof will show how the logo, lettering and proportions can be adapted to the project.
Requirements vary by municipality, property and sign location. Exterior business signs often require landlord review, a sign permit or both. Confirm the local requirements before scheduling installation.
Direct mounting may be possible, but the facade, wiring route and access need to be reviewed. A raceway or backer panel may be more practical for some buildings.
Allow 20 business days for production after final proof approval, followed by an estimated 1–3 business days for delivery within Canada. Installation timing is quoted separately.
Send your logo or vector artwork, target width, a straight-on site photo, the city and installation address, preferred lighting style, quantity and required date.
Installation scope and timing depend on the location, mounting surface, access, electrical work and local approvals. Include the installation address and site photos so the correct scope can be reviewed with your quote.
