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 Shoreham-by-Sea
- Where a Shoreham-by-Sea shop has a long fascia, a flex-faced box spans it without the joins rigid acrylic sheets need.
- Businesses with several sites across West Sussex can share one set of artwork, so the Shoreham-by-Sea branch matches the rest.
- Taking over a franchise or a new lease in Shoreham-by-Sea? A replacement face keeps the existing box and wiring.

Consent for illuminated signs in Shoreham-by-Sea
Plan for express consent. In England most internally illuminated and halo-lit signs on a fascia or projecting bracket need it, and deemed consent does not cover illuminated signs in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control. The council usually decides within 8 weeks, and consent normally lasts 5 years. Expect questions about brightness: many councils refer to ILP guidance PLG05, which sets maximum luminance by zone, and they expect steady light rather than flashing. We prepare scaled drawings and photo mock-ups for the application, or submit it for you, and an electrician completes the connection to BS 7671 and gives you the certificate.
