Does LED neon get hot?

Only slightly warm. The flex runs at 12 or 24 volts, so it's comfortable to touch and suits places within reach, such as a café wall or salon window. The mains side is in the driver, which should stay ventilated and dry.

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.

Can you work to an opening date in Putney?

Tell us the date when you enquire and we will say plainly whether it looks realistic. Timescales typically depend on how soon the proof is approved, how long production takes and whether consent is needed, which can take several weeks on its own. We plan around your date where we can, but we do not promise one we cannot control.

What does LED neon cost to run?

Very little, because LED flex draws a modest wattage per metre. For an estimate, multiply the driver's rating in kilowatts by the hours lit and your price per kilowatt-hour. A timer plug stops it running overnight when nobody's there to see it.

Who carries out the work on LED neon signs in Putney?

The work on site is done by installers working under our contract, and anything that needs making is produced by specialist fabricators. You deal with Smart Signs throughout: we take the enquiry, survey, prepare the design and quote, check consent and coordinate the fitting, so there is one point of contact from first message to handover.

Is there a guide price for LED neon signs in Putney?

Yes: £245–£1,250 per sign + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.

LED neon signs in Putney: 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.
