Striking, modern and full of impact.

Halo illuminated signs use LEDs mounted behind letters or logos to create a glowing “halo effect” against the wall. This subtle backlit glow highlights your brand without overpowering it, giving your signage a premium and stylish appearance. The effect is eye-catching during the day and especially effective at night.

Also called halo lit letters or halo effect signs, they’re a popular choice for shopfronts, offices, leisure venues and hospitality spaces. The soft glow adds depth and professionalism, creating a look that feels modern, elegant and high-quality.

These signs are a specialist style within built-up & 3D illuminated signs, but with a unique look.

Size & Specification Guide

Halo illuminated signs are fully bespoke, with sizes tailored to your building or space.

Small letters (200 mm–300 mm high)

Perfect for reception areas, interiors or smaller shopfronts.

Medium letters (300 mm–500 mm high)

A popular choice for retail, restaurants and offices. It provides strong visibility without overwhelming the fascia.

Large letters (500 mm–1000 mm+ high)

Ideal for leisure venues or roadside branding where distance visibility is essential.

Depths typically range from 50–100 mm, depending on the LED system and letter style. A shallower depth creates a clean, subtle glow, while a deeper build allows stronger illumination for bold effects.

Mounting & Fixing Options

Halo illuminated letters are mounted onto walls or fascias using stud fixings with spacers, which hold the letters slightly away from the surface to allow the light to spread evenly.

Our installers ensure compliance with electrical standards and planning requirements, giving you complete peace of mind.

When you order a non-illuminated projecting sign with us, you’ll receive:

  • Halo illumination is especially effective for businesses trading after dark.
  • Works best on lighter backgrounds, but LEDs can be adapted for darker walls too.
  • LEDs are low-voltage and energy-efficient, reducing running costs compared to older lighting systems.
  • The soft glow makes halo signs suitable in heritage or conservation areas where bright face-lit signage may not be permitted.
  • Signs can be refurbished with new LEDs or refinishes, extending their lifespan without a full replacement.

Every sign is supplied with fixings and instructions. Letters are mounted with spacers to create the halo glow, with wiring connected to a power supply and drivers. A qualified electrician is required for safe installation. Our nationwide team can also manage the process from start to finish.

Halo illuminated signs require very little upkeep. Surfaces can be wiped down with a soft cloth and mild detergent to remove dirt or marks. LEDs typically last 5–10 years, depending on usage.
We also offer refurbishment services, including LED retrofits, replacement drivers and surface refinishing, to keep your sign looking as good as new.

Assembly Instructions

Putting up a banner doesn’t take long. Start by fixing it evenly across the top and bottom using the supplied fittings. For ceiling or lamp post installations, follow the instructions provided with the kit to ensure a safe and secure fit. Larger banners are easier to manage with two people, as this helps keep the tension even across the surface. Prefer us to handle it? Our team can install banners nationwide.

Halo signs are designed to produce a soft glow rather than a direct spotlight. Brightness levels can be adjusted to suit the environment, ensuring visibility without causing glare.

They stand out best against light or neutral backgrounds, where the glow spreads evenly. For darker walls, we adjust the LED colour and spacing to ensure the effect remains clear.

Minimal upkeep is needed. LEDs have a long lifespan, often 5 – 10 years. Occasional cleaning and inspections are recommended, and retrofits are available if older systems need upgrading.

Often, yes. Because halo signs create a softer glow, they can be more acceptable in areas with strict planning rules. We can provide guidance and drawings for planning applications.

Most projects take 2–4 weeks from design approval, depending on the size and complexity of the build. Smaller projects can often be completed faster.
