A lightbox sign is a shallow enclosed box with a translucent face and LED lighting inside, so the whole panel, or just lettering routed into it, glows evenly at night.
What you gain from lightbox signs in Westhill
- When an old fluorescent box above a Westhill shop flickers, an LED conversion can cost far less than a new sign.
- A Westhill takeaway trading mostly after dark keeps its name and number readable with a fully lit face.
- If a Westhill convenience store or pharmacy has a sound box frame, a new face refreshes the frontage for less.

Consent for illuminated signs in Westhill
A lit sign is the clearest case for applying first. Scotland's 1984 Advertisement Regulations treat illuminated signs differently from unlit ones, and express consent is usually needed for halo-lit letters, lightboxes and lit projecting signs. We check with the council before you commit to lightbox signs, then put together scaled drawings, photo mock-ups and lighting details, which you can submit via eDevelopment.scot or we can submit for you. Expect the council to look at brightness (PLG05 is the usual reference) and to prefer steady light, perhaps on a time switch. The mains connection is completed by an electrician to BS 7671.
