A front-lit sign glows through its face, so the print or film on that face decides how it looks at night. We prepare the face artwork with that in mind.
It suits fascia positions where a bright, readable brand name is wanted day and night.

Supplying measurements
Send a photo of the wall, fascia or area, with the overall width and height and the distance from which it is usually seen. A rough sketch with measurements is enough to start a quotation.
Artwork requirements
Vector artwork (PDF, AI, EPS or SVG) with fonts outlined gives the cleanest cutting and printing results, with colours set in CMYK. If you only have a logo as a JPEG or screenshot, we can redraw it and send a proof before anything is produced.
Survey and installation
Fabricated and fixed items depend on the wall or structure they go onto. Work at height, electrical connections and structures may need a site survey before a formal quotation; electrical connections are made by a qualified electrician and engineering input is obtained where required. Installation arrangements are confirmed per project.
Maintenance
Wipe with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding abrasive cleaners. Have fixings and any lighting checked from time to time, especially after strong wind or storms.
