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 Clydach
- Among the fascias of a busy Clydach street, evenly glowing letters stand out without needing a larger sign.
- With a photocell fitted, a Clydach sign switches itself on as daylight fades, even after staff have gone home.
- Conservation areas cover parts of many towns, so for a Clydach frontage we check face-lit letters are realistic first.

Options for your Clydach project
Trimless
Faces sit inside a fine metal lip for a sharper edge.
Fully lit acrylic
Faces and returns both glow, so letters read well from an angle.
Trim cap
A plastic edge holds each face on; robust and easy to service.
Consent for illuminated signs in Clydach
Adding light usually means adding an application. For an exterior illuminated sign in Wales, expect the council to want an express consent application in most cases; the 1992 Regulations (as amended) set the rules, and the council can confirm its timescales and conditions. Expect questions about how bright the sign is and when it is lit: steady light, a time switch or photocell, and luminance kept within the PLG05 guidance all help. We put together scaled drawings, photomontages and lighting details for you, or lodge the application ourselves if you prefer, and an electrician makes the final connection to BS 7671.
