How soon after I approve the proof can the work on halo-lit letters happen?

Typically within a few weeks, depending on what has to be made. Printed and cut graphics are typically produced sooner than fabricated letters, trays or illuminated signs, which need more fabrication time. If the job needs advertisement consent, fitting waits for the council's decision. We confirm an expected date for Burgess Hill once materials are ordered.

Will the location in Burgess Hill affect the cost of halo-lit letters?

How do you look after halo letters?

Clean metal faces gently with a soft cloth and mild detergent a few times a year, avoiding abrasive pads on brushed or mirror finishes. Check the clear backs for trapped dirt or insects. If a halo dims or goes patchy, the driver is the usual suspect.

Can halo letters go on dark brick?

They can, but the halo will be faint because dark surfaces absorb light. The usual answer is a pale backing panel behind the letters, giving the glow a clean surface. Face-and-halo letters are another option, where the lit face does most of the work.

How far off the wall do halo letters sit?

Usually 25–50 mm. Closer gives a tight, bright outline; further gives a softer, wider glow and makes the letters seem to float. Larger letters generally sit further out. The distance is set on the drawings and fine-tuned on the locators during fitting.

Consent for illuminated signs in Burgess Hill

Lighting a sign changes the consent picture in England. Under the 2007 Advertisement Regulations, deemed consent for illuminated signs is narrow and is excluded in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads and areas of special control; in practice most lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent. Allow up to 8 weeks for a decision, with consent normally running for 5 years. Keep the light static and at sensible levels, with PLG05 the usual reference for brightness, and use a time switch or photocell to control the hours. We check before you commit, can handle the application drawings or the submission, and arrange an electrician for the BS 7671 connection.
