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.
Good reasons to look at halo-lit letters in Renfrew
- At a Renfrew hotel entrance, brushed steel or brass halo letters read as part of the building's architecture.
- Where a Renfrew building has pale stone or smooth render, halo lighting shows off the wall rather than hiding it.
- Older streets in Renfrew may sit within a conservation area, so we check the council's likely view before design starts.
What halo-lit letters cost in Renfrew
We publish guide prices so you can plan before you get in touch. For halo-lit letters the range is £160–£420 per letter, not including VAT, and the final price is confirmed after we survey the site or check the artwork.

Consent for illuminated signs in Renfrew
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.
