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 Johnstone
- Late-opening barbers and cafés in Johnstone can use routed faces so only the name glows, for a cleaner look.
- Businesses with several sites across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde can share one set of artwork, so the Johnstone branch matches the rest.
- Where a Johnstone shop has a long fascia, a flex-faced box spans it without the joins rigid acrylic sheets need.

Consent for illuminated signs in Johnstone
Illumination brings Scottish signs firmly into the consent process. Under the 1984 Scotland Regulations, internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs usually need express consent; the council decides, and listed buildings or conservation areas add an extra layer, with listed building consent usually required on a listed building. Keep the light static and the luminance within the PLG05 guidance the council is likely to reference. LED modules and drivers run at low voltage, while the final connection is made to BS 7671 by an electrician. We confirm the route before you commit and can handle the drawings or the eDevelopment.scot submission.
