Illuminated built-up letters are fabricated 3D letters with translucent opal acrylic faces and LED modules inside, so each face glows and your name reads clearly after dark.
Where illuminated built-up letters can pay off in Ashington
- Winter darkness arrives by late afternoon, so face-lit letters keep an Ashington shopfront readable to people heading home.
- With a photocell fitted, an Ashington sign switches itself on as daylight fades, even after staff have gone home.
- Conservation areas cover parts of many towns, so for an Ashington frontage we check face-lit letters are realistic first.

Consent for illuminated signs in Ashington
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.
