Letters are lit from behind, throwing a soft halo onto the wall. Upscale and architectural.

Channel letters are the right choice for any business that depends on visibility — retail storefronts, restaurants, gyms, medical offices, auto dealerships, and multi-tenant commercial buildings. If your customers need to find you from the road or recognize your location at night, illuminated channel letters do that work better than any other sign type.

303 Sign Company designs, fabricates, and installs channel letters from our Longmont shop — one team from permit drawings through final wiring, serving businesses across Northern Colorado and the north Denver metro.

Questions

Channel Letters, Answered

What are channel letters?+
Channel letters are three-dimensional, individually fabricated letters — usually aluminum and acrylic — mounted to a building or storefront. They can be internally illuminated with LEDs so they read clearly day and night.
How much do channel letters cost in the north Denver metro?+
Cost depends on size, letter count, illumination type, and mounting. Most storefront sets fall into a wide range, so the fastest way to a real number is to call 303 Sign Company at (888) 303-3936 with your sign size and location.
Do I need a permit for channel letters?+
Most exterior channel-letter signs require a city permit and must meet local code. We handle permitting and code compliance as part of the project so you don't have to.
Front-lit vs. halo-lit — which should I choose?+
Front-lit letters are brightest and most legible from a distance. Halo-lit (reverse) letters look more premium and architectural. Many buildings use a combination. We'll recommend the right one for your facade on a quick call.
How long do LED channel letters last?+
Quality LED modules typically last 50,000+ hours. We build with serviceable components and stand behind the install.
What are channel letters made of?+
Channel letters are built from aluminum returns and backs with acrylic faces, illuminated by energy-efficient LEDs. We match materials and finishes to your brand so they hold up outdoors.
How are channel letters mounted and installed?+
They mount to the facade — flush, on a raceway, or on a backer panel — and our own crews handle the wiring, lighting, and installation, testing everything before we leave.
