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.
Points in favour of halo-lit letters in Kilsyth
- At a Kilsyth hotel entrance, brushed steel or brass halo letters read as part of the building's architecture.
- Where a Kilsyth building has pale stone or smooth render, halo lighting shows off the wall rather than hiding it.
- Next to bright lightboxes on a Kilsyth parade, a soft halo stands apart by being gentler rather than brighter.

Consent for illuminated signs in Kilsyth
A lit sign is the clearest case for applying first. Scotland's 1984 Advertisement Regulations treat illuminated signs differently from unlit ones, and express consent is usually needed for halo-lit letters, lightboxes and lit projecting signs. We check with the council before you commit to halo-lit letters, then put together scaled drawings, photo mock-ups and lighting details, which you can submit via eDevelopment.scot or we can submit for you. Expect the council to look at brightness (PLG05 is the usual reference) and to prefer steady light, perhaps on a time switch. The mains connection is completed by an electrician to BS 7671.
