Exploring the Importance of Lighted Signs for Businesses
Sign lighting offers a wide range of benefits, not least of which is 24/7 visibility. By illuminating your sign, you can promote your business’s presence around the clock. Moreover, an illuminated sign is a clear indicator for shoppers that your store is open for business.
Lighted signs also provide you the opportunity to grow brand awareness. You can use different lighting colors and effects to capture your brand accurately, while also enhancing nighttime visibility. For instance, LED signsareavailable in a wide range of lighting configurations and colors, meaning you can personalize them to your exact design specifications.
Lighting can improve safety too. An illuminated storefront sign eliminates shadow spots outside your store, reducing the chances of expected incidents for passersby or leaving patrons. Lighted indoor signs can improve visibility, too, potentially reducing tripping hazards.

Why LED Signs Have Changed the Signage Game
LED lighting has made sign lighting more cost-efficient, dependable, and accessible for businesses than ever before. The U.S. Department of Energy says LED lights are around 90% more energy-efficient than traditional incandescent lightbulbs. They are also around 25 times longer-lasting too. Businesses investing in LED signs can expect far lower costs in comparison to traditionally illuminated signs.
LED bulbs are available as flexible light strips, light bars, LED neon, and traditional bulbs. This diversity allows you to personalize the lighting effect and appearance of your sign. LEDs are also dimmable, allowing you to control the intensity of lighting based on the time of day or your needs at any given time.
Maintenance Tips for Lighted Signs
You may be wondering if there any special maintenance tips for LED lighted signs?
The easy answer is yes! Illuminated signs require a little bit of unique maintenance in comparison to an unilluminated sign, but only because there is the chance that bulbs may need to be replaced many years down the road.
When doing any sign maintenance, check for signs of water damage to reduce the risk of short circuits and/or personal injury. If you notice the lights in your sign are flickering or turn off intermittently, it could indicate loose wiring. Do not attempt to correct it yourself! Turn off the sign and call our sign company to inspect and remediate the issue.
