Backlit channel letter signs are lighted, three-dimensional letter installations that really make an impact, especially in low-light environments. For a hospital where clear visibility is of great importance to its patients and visitors, these signs provide unparalleled functionality and aesthetic appeal. Letters in such signs are lit from the back and throw their light upon the mounting surface to give an extraordinary halo effect.
Designing Effective Backlit Signs
At SignSmiths of Texas, we brand each sign to your hospital’s identity. From font styles to colors, every little detail is made to fit with your current exterior or interior design.
The casing for the letters is made from high-quality, light materials with strength, such as aluminum, while the faces are made from acrylic for better illumination. Energy-efficient LED lighting is our foremost choice due to its long life and low energy consumption, thus fitting all modern concepts of sustainability.
Lighting and Mounting Options
Backlit design speaks about class and clarity because of the backlighting of LED lights behind letters. This makes soft light come out, and hence, your sign will be visible from a distance but will not be too bright.
For mounting, you can choose from:
- Raceways: These contain the electrical components, simplifying installation and maintenance while providing a clean look.
- Stand-offs: In order to add a feeling of depth, this can suspend letters off the wall at intervals.
Both options are weather-resistant and durable in Texas’s variable climate.
Material Used in Crafting Channel Letters
We create signs from a number of different, first-rate materials, including:
- Aluminum: Light in weight, though very strong and resistant to corrosion; hence, perfect for outdoor use.
- Acrylic: It enhances the shine of the lighting and has custom finishes available, such as matte or glossy.
- Vinyl Accents: Additional branding could be in the form of vinyl accents featuring logos or slogans.
Materials are UV-stable and water-resistant to make them long-lasting, even in high-traffic hospital environments.
Applications of Backlit Channel Letter Signs in Hospitals
- Emergency Room Entrances: These signs lead the patient through the time of emergency so that even in the dead of night, the patient or attendant will not have much difficulty locating the ER.
- Name on the Main Hospital Building: Large illuminated letters on top reinforce branding, rendering the facility easily recognizable.
- Parking Lots: The backlights present in parking lots enhance wayfinding for visitors.
- Specialty Departments: Highlight areas such as cardiology or maternity in order to put forward a professional appearance.
