Is there a guide price for halo-lit letters in Craigavon?

Yes: £160–£420 per letter + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.

Is there a typical lead time for halo-lit letters in Craigavon?

Yes, though it varies with the job. The lead time typically runs from the day you approve the proof, not from the first enquiry, and is typically a few weeks. Survey visits, artwork changes and any consent application sit before that point, so getting photos, sizes and logo files to us early typically shortens the overall timescale.

Are halo letters readable from afar?

Less so than face-lit letters, because the face stays dark and you read the shape against the glow. They suit entrances approached on foot, such as hotels, restaurants and receptions. For main roads or tall buildings, face-and-halo letters give more reach.

Can halo letters be used inside?

Yes, and reception walls suit them well. Indoor letters can be slimmer, with drivers in a ceiling void. A sign well inside the building is usually outside advertisement control, though check if it's visible through glazing. An electrician still makes the connection to BS 7671.

Do you work across County Armagh or only in Craigavon?

Across all of County Armagh, and the rest of the UK too. Craigavon is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Will brass halo letters tarnish?

Bare solid brass darkens and spots outdoors over time. A clear lacquer slows this, and coated brass-effect finishes on a steel base are more stable still. Some owners like the aged patina; others want the polished look kept, so decide before ordering.

Halo-lit letters in County Armagh

Halo-lit letters are solid-faced fabricated letters with LEDs inside that shine backwards onto the wall, so each letter stands in silhouette against a soft outline of light.

Why choose halo-lit letters in County Armagh?

Offices on a Craigavon business park can use halo-lit names on pale cladding to guide winter-evening visitors to reception.

Guide prices in County Armagh

Consent for illuminated signs in County Armagh

Under the Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015, an illuminated fascia or projecting sign usually needs express consent from the council. Applications go in online via the NI Planning Portal, and the council will tell you its timescale and may set conditions on hours or light levels. PLG05 from the Institution of Lighting Professionals is the usual brightness benchmark, and flashing is generally out. Listed premises usually need listed building consent alongside. Once installed, the sign is connected to the mains by an electrician to BS 7671, with a certificate for you. We can prepare the drawings or submit the application.

Options worth considering

Backing panel

A pale panel behind the letters for dark or rough walls.

Brushed stainless

Grade 304, or 316 near the coast; cool and hard-wearing.

Brass or bronze

Warm faces for hospitality, lacquered to slow tarnishing.
