Sign lighting is external or retrofitted lighting that makes an existing sign readable after dark: LED trough lights, swan-neck spotlights or wall washers, or LED modules replacing old lightbox tubes.
Why choose sign lighting and LED upgrades for a business in Armadale?
- On a retail park outside Armadale, wall washers can light the sign and entrance on dark winter afternoons.
- Where flats sit above shops in Armadale, downward-aimed, shielded fittings keep light on the sign and out of windows.
- An old fluorescent lightbox on an Armadale parade can be converted to LED, cutting running costs and tube changes.

Consent for illuminated signs in Armadale
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 sign lighting and LED upgrades, 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.
