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.
What halo-lit letters can do for businesses in Bangor
- Next to bright lightboxes on a Bangor parade, a soft halo stands apart by being gentler rather than brighter.
- Older streets in Bangor may sit within a conservation area, so we check the council's likely view before design starts.
- Where a Bangor building has pale stone or smooth render, halo lighting shows off the wall rather than hiding it.
What halo-lit letters cost in Bangor
Use these figures to budget: £160 to £420 per letter is the guide range, with VAT added on top. Each line in the table is indicative only, and your exact price is confirmed after a survey or once we have looked over the artwork.

Consent for illuminated signs in Bangor
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.
