FAQ
Front-lit signage questions, answered
How much does front-lit signage cost in Singapore?
It depends on the size, the number of letters, and the depth. You will get a firm quote, usually within a day, before anything is made. Design is included, and installation is its own line.
What is the difference between front-lit and back-lit signage?
Front-lit letters glow through the face, so they are bright and readable from a distance. Back-lit letters have a solid face and glow from behind, creating a soft halo on the wall. Front-lit suits shopfronts that need reach. Back-lit suits receptions and feature walls.
What is a steel trim cap?
A thin metal rim that runs around the edge of the glowing face. It frames the light, sharpens the letter outline, and gives the sign a more premium finish up close. Seamless acrylic is the cleaner, simpler alternative where the face and sides are one piece.
What does "black by day" mean?
The face reads solid black in daylight and glows white after dark. It is the sharpest looking option for modern shopfronts, because the sign changes character between trading hours and evening trade.
Why do you ask about my wall?
Because it decides how we hide the wiring. Concrete and brick will not let cables pass through, so the letters sit on a slim backing panel that carries them. A partition wall lets us run the wiring behind, so the letters mount direct and clean. Send a photo if you are unsure.
Will it be readable in the daytime too?
Yes. A front-lit sign is a proper 3D sign with the light off, and a lit one after dark. The mockup shows you both, so you know how it looks around the clock.
Do I need a licence for a front-lit shopfront sign?
Some shopfront signs facing public areas do need approval. If yours does, we will flag it early and keep it simple. We keep to standard shopfront and indoor signage, so most jobs stay straightforward.
Can I supply only, without installation?
Yes. Pick Not required in the explorer and we will supply the sign ready to mount. Most customers take the install, because alignment and wiring on a shopfront are harder than they look.
Can the sign go on a timer?
Yes. Set it once for business hours and forget it.
