Custom Channel Letters for Storefronts and Commercial Buildings
Channel letters give your business a clean, professional look that stands out day and night. Gator Graphics designs and fabricates every set of letters in house, built to last and installed to code.
Signs That Make a Statement
Channel letters are individually fabricated, three-dimensional letters that mount directly to your building, giving your business name a bold, professional presence. Whether you need a small set of letters for a single storefront or a full sign package for a shopping center, Gator Graphics designs, builds, and installs channel letters that meet your brand and your local sign code.
Channel Letter Sign Options
Front-Lit Channel Letters
The most recognized and common type of 3D channel letters are widely used and a high-visibility option. Their acrylic face allows LED light to show through, making your sign stand out day or night with maximum brightness. Front lit channel letters are the go-to choice for retail storefronts, shopping centers, and any business that wants maximum readability from the road.
Front/Halo Lit Channel Letters
Can't decide between bright and sophisticated? You don't have to. Front/halo lit channel letters combine face illumination with a backlit glow against the building, creating a layered lighting effect that stands out. They are best for nighttime outdoor usage and a popular choice for businesses that want a premium look without giving up visibility.
Reverse Halo Lit Channel Letters
Consistent branding across every vehicle in your fleet builds recognition and trust. We work with businesses to design a graphics package that can be applied uniformly across vans, trucks, and trailers, no matter how many vehicles are in your fleet.
Trim Channel Letters
These are a modern style of channel letters with no visible margin or trim cap. Trim channel letters feature a precision metal return with a finished trim cap along the edge, giving each letter a clean, polished profile. Built for durability and a refined look, trim channel letters are a strong choice for businesses that want a professional, well-finished appearance that holds up over time.
Open Face Channel Letters
Open face channel letters have no covering on the front, leaving the interior LED or neon light source fully exposed. The result is a warm, vintage or retro look that has made a strong comeback in recent years. They are typically used for exposed neon or marquee lighting and are a great fit for restaurants, entertainment venues, and businesses that want a distinctive, character-driven sign with an eye-catching glow.
Halo Lit Flat-Cut Letters
Halo lit flat-cut letters are sleek, non-dimensional characters mounted directly off the wall surface with LED backlighting that creates a clean halo effect. These acrylic letters come with your choice of face color, illuminated with LED lights for indoor or outdoor use. Without the depth of traditional channel letters, flat-cut letters offer a minimalist, contemporary aesthetic that works especially well on modern commercial buildings, medical facilities, and corporate environments.
Face Lit Push Through Letters
Face-lit push-through letters feature acrylic letter shapes or logo elements pushed through the face of a sign cabinet and illuminated from within, so light glows through and around each character. The effect is crisp, dimensional, and gives your name or logo depth, making push-through letters a strong option for monument signs, building directories, and interior lobby signage where a polished, finished look matters.
