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.
Where lightbox signs can pay off in Comber
- If a Comber convenience store or pharmacy has a sound box frame, a new face refreshes the frontage for less.
- When an old fluorescent box above a Comber shop flickers, an LED conversion can cost far less than a new sign.
- Businesses with several sites across County Down can share one set of artwork, so the Comber branch matches the rest.
What lightbox signs cost in Comber
Guide prices start from £1,250 and go up to £4,800 per lightbox, exclusive of VAT. The breakdown below shows where different sizes and options sit. Nothing is final until we have measured up or checked your artwork and sent a written quote.

Consent for illuminated signs in Comber
Expect to apply if you want light. In Northern Ireland, express consent is usually required for exterior illuminated signs under the 2015 NI Regulations, and the council is likely to consider brightness, hours and appearance, particularly in conservation areas or on listed buildings. We prepare the scaled drawings, lighting details and photo mock-ups for an NI Planning Portal application, or submit it on your behalf. Keep illumination static and within the PLG05 guidance, and use a time switch or photocell to control the hours. The mains connection is made by an electrician to BS 7671.
Covering Comber and County Down
From the middle of Comber to the edges of County Down, the same survey, proof and fit process applies. If the job calls for someone on site, a visit is booked; if not, we price from photos, measurements and your artwork, then confirm the details once the artwork is checked. Comber is about 8.3 miles south of Bangor.
