Front and Back Lit Letters

Front and back lit letters run both light paths at once: the acrylic face glows toward the viewer while a second set of modules washes the wall behind. The result is a letter with a lit face and a lit outline — the fullest, most dimensional version of a fabricated letter, and the format flagship locations choose when one sign has to do everything.

What It Is

Front and back lit letters run both light paths at once: the acrylic face glows toward the viewer while a second set of modules washes the wall behind. The result is a letter with a lit face and a lit outline — the fullest, most dimensional version of a fabricated letter, and the format flagship locations choose when one sign has to do everything.

Building both paths into one letter means two circuits, a face and back in different materials, and a deeper return to hold them. It is the most complex letter on this site and the listed production route — laser cutting, polishing, painting, assembly — carries the same 5–7 working day term, with the 1:1 installation template supplied as standard.

Materials and Build

Letters are fabricated, not printed: faces are cut by laser from stainless steel (#304 or #316) or acrylic — with 3, 5 and 8 mm acrylic options listed — returns are formed to depths between 10 and 180 mm, and the finish is polished, painted or left as brushed metal. Inside sit waterproof LED modules powered through a Mean Well transformer at a safe DC 12V. The listed production route is laser cutting, polishing, painting and assembly, and the listed production time is 5–7 working days.

Every order ships with a 1:1 paper installation template, so the spacing designed on screen is the spacing drilled on the wall. Listed warranty terms are 5 years for stainless steel and acrylic elements and 3 years for the LED and transformer; express delivery by DHL, FedEx or TNT is listed at 3–5 days, with air freight at 5–7 days and sea freight at 20–30 days for larger sets.

Designing With Two Light Paths

The interesting decision is color: face and halo can match for a unified glow, or contrast — a white face with a brand-color halo, a brand-color face with a warm white halo — for a sign that carries two brand cues at once. Wiring the two paths on separate circuits adds dimming and switching options, so the face can stay on after the halo is dimmed for the night, or the reverse.

Because the letter is deeper and heavier than a single-path letter, wall fixing matters more; send the wall material with your inquiry and the mounting will be specified with the quote.

Questions Buyers Ask

What warranty do the letters carry?

The listed terms give stainless steel and acrylic elements a 5-year warranty, with LED and transformer covered for 3 years. Keep your order paperwork with the sign so the terms travel with it.

How are the letters installed?

Each order ships with a 1:1 paper installation template: tape it to the wall, drill through the marked points, fix the letters and connect the transformer. Stud, rail and flush mounting are chosen per wall at order stage.

How fast is production and delivery?

Listed production time is 5–7 working days. After that, express couriers take 3–5 days, air freight 5–7 days and sea freight 20–30 days, depending on the destination.

What payment terms are listed?

50% deposit with the order and the balance before shipping, by T/T, Western Union, PayPal or Trade Assurance.
