What if part of the sign fails?

The driver is the most common failure and is quick to swap. If a section of flex fails, it can usually be cut out and replaced or the run reconnected, rather than remaking the whole sign. Keep the driver details from handover.

Can you copy handwriting?

Yes. A clear scan or photo is traced into a single-line path the flex can follow. Very fine loops and tight joins may be simplified slightly because of the flex's minimum bend radius, and the proof shows exactly how the line will look.

Can you handle LED neon signs for a business in Belfast?

Yes. Smart Signs covers Belfast and the rest of County Antrim as part of a UK-wide service. You send photos and rough sizes, we arrange a survey if the job needs one, then you receive a proof to scale and a fixed written price. Nothing is made or fitted until you have approved both.

Could the consent process affect the timing of my job in Belfast?

It can. Not every job needs an application, but where express consent is required the council's decision typically takes several weeks, and fitting typically waits until it is granted. We check this at the start, so the timetable you receive with your quote allows for consent where it applies, along with the proof approval stage.

Can I get a fixed price for LED neon signs in Belfast before committing?

Yes. We start from the guide range, £245 to £1,250 per sign excluding VAT, then measure up or look at your photos and artwork. That gives a fixed written price reflecting the real size, materials, access and any design or consent work. You only commit once you accept that price and approve the proof.

Can LED neon go in a shop window?

Yes, usually hung on wires or chains behind the glass, facing out. Daylight reduces its impact, so it shows most at dusk and after dark. If it's visible from the street, check whether advertisement consent is needed, and keep it static.

An LED neon sign is a logo or lettering formed from flexible LED tube that imitates glass neon, running at 12 or 24 volts and usually mounted on an acrylic backboard.

Guide prices in County Antrim

LED neon sign up to 600 mm	£245 – £495	£294 – £594

Total flex length drives the price, so dense script costs more than short words. Extra colours, shaped backboards, dimmers or RGB control and hard-wired fitting add to it; larger signs are quoted individually.

LED neon signs in County Antrim: permission and rules

A neon sign on an inside wall, away from the windows, is usually outside advertisement control. Once it's visible from the street, on a fascia, canopy or just behind the glass, it can count as an illuminated advertisement. In England, lit signs get only limited deemed consent, and none in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control; an express consent decision usually takes up to 8 weeks. Keep street-facing signs static. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own regulations. We can prepare the drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
