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 Pontypool?
- A restaurant or wine bar in Pontypool can light its name after dark without a glowing box, using halo letters.
- At a Pontypool hotel entrance, brushed steel or brass halo letters read as part of the building's architecture.
- Older streets in Pontypool may sit within a conservation area, so we check the council's likely view before design starts.

Consent for illuminated signs in Pontypool
Wales has its own advertisement regulations, and a lit sign is the case where they matter most. Internally illuminated, halo-lit and lit projecting signs typically need express consent, and on listed buildings or in conservation areas the council is likely to look closely at size, light levels and fixings. Keep illumination static and moderate; PLG05 from the Institution of Lighting Professionals is the usual reference. LED modules and drivers run at low voltage, but the mains connection still needs an electrician working to BS 7671. We check before you commit and can prepare or submit the consent application.
