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 for a business in Caerphilly?
- Where a Caerphilly building has pale stone or smooth render, halo lighting shows off the wall rather than hiding it.
- At a Caerphilly hotel entrance, brushed steel or brass halo letters read as part of the building's architecture.
- A restaurant or wine bar in Caerphilly can light its name after dark without a glowing box, using halo letters.

Consent for illuminated signs in Caerphilly
Adding light usually means adding an application. For an exterior illuminated sign in Wales, expect the council to want an express consent application in most cases; the 1992 Regulations (as amended) set the rules, and the council can confirm its timescales and conditions. Expect questions about how bright the sign is and when it is lit: steady light, a time switch or photocell, and luminance kept within the PLG05 guidance all help. We put together scaled drawings, photomontages and lighting details for you, or lodge the application ourselves if you prefer, and an electrician makes the final connection to BS 7671.
