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.
Where sign lighting and LED upgrades can pay off in Rhondda
- Pubs in Rhondda with traditional painted boards can add swan-neck spotlights that suit the period look of the frontage.
- Closing before the Rhondda evening rush? A timer keeps the sign lit while commuters pass, then switches off.
- A painted fascia on a Rhondda high street can stay readable after dark with one slim trough light.

Consent for illuminated signs in Rhondda
Wales has its own advertisement regulations, and a lit sign is the case where they matter most. Internally illuminated, halo-lit and lit projecting signs typically need express consent, and on listed buildings or in conservation areas the council is likely to look closely at size, light levels and fixings. Keep illumination static and moderate; PLG05 from the Institution of Lighting Professionals is the usual reference. LED modules and drivers run at low voltage, but the mains connection still needs an electrician working to BS 7671. We check before you commit and can prepare or submit the consent application.
