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.
Reasons to choose lightbox signs in Tredegar

Consent for illuminated signs in Tredegar
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.
