Halo lit signs advantages

The halo lit signs are so named because the illumination creates a very attractive glow around the signs, with a mesmerizing halo effect. Individual 3D metal sign shells made by laser cutting, welding, fabrication and other processes are installed with LEDs, which emit light from the back panel of the signage after being lit, and can be made into letters, numbers and logos. These signs can be used alone or combined with other different types of signs to add attention to the signage. Halo lit signs look stunning and can add a lot of sparkle to the front of your store, can show your prospects and customers the way to find your business, and help you stand out from the competition. This type of signage is highly customizable, be it font, size, colour, finish or lighting color can be personalized. They are widely believed to reduce light pollution and look more refined. Whether it's indoor or outdoor, for office, store or building, the halo lit signs are often the best option for identifying a business.

Halo lit signs FAQ

How to determine the right halo lit signs size?

In our experience, there is a roughly proportional relationship between the height of the halo lit signs and the best visible distances, generally 100 to 120 times. For example, a 1 inch height halo lit signs can be distinguished well from a distance of about 100 inches to 120 inches. So choose the fittest visible distances based on your request, then you will know how height your signs should be.

What's the best font for halo lit signs?

In fact for us, we care more about the minimum stroke width than the fonts. We need the minimum width of the strokes to reach 10mm(0.39"), else we will not have enough space to place the LED in the signs shell, and if it is too small we even can not produce the 3D signs shell.
As long as the above requirements are met, in fact you can choose the font you need according to your personal preferences.
If you prioritize readability, then sans serif fonts that are thick like Helvetica or Arial will maximize your halo lit signs' visibility. Many contemporary and modern such backlit signs are designed to be highly visible.
If you need your signs to have some special style, then you can see the script fonts, cursive fonts, thin, decorative font styles, and serif-style fonts, though they might be difficult to read or see from a distance, they have rich style.
BTW, the spacing of halo lit signs letters is crucial for readability. Designers call the spacing "kerning". Too big or too close kerning all will create visibility issues.
