Storefront Lights
The purpose of your sign is twofold; first, to attract attention to your business, secondly, to identify it.
There are other ways to attract attention, making your business even more successful.
Ask your salesman for details on border-outline lighting, window lights, and façade lights.
Outdoor commercial signage plays a crucial role in capturing attention, enhancing brand visibility, and conveying messages effectively. Among the various options available, neon lighting has long been favored for its vibrant, eye-catching appeal. It's used in building lighting, storefront channel letters, wall signage and more. While LED technology has made significant strides in recent years, attempting to replicate neon's impact, it falls short in recreating the mesmerizing charm that only neon can deliver. What are the unique benefits of neon used in outdoor commercial signage and why do LEDs struggle to match its allure? Unmatched Visual Brilliance: Neon signs are renowned for their unparalleled brightness and luminosity. The noble gases, typically neon, within the glass tubes emit a distinct, vivid glow when electrified. This captivating radiance not only draws attention but also creates a memorable visual experience. LEDs, although capable of producing intense light, lack the same enchanting quality and often appear harsher and less organic. Wide Range of Colors and Effects: Neon offers an extensive palette of colors, allowing businesses to create vibrant, eye-catching signage that aligns with their brand identity. The process of altering the color in neon signs is achieved by utilizing different gases, phosphor coatings, and colored glass. This versatility allows for captivating gradients, multi-color effects, and custom designs that stand out from the crowd. LEDs, on the other hand, struggle to replicate the same range of hues, often appearing limited in comparison. Artistic Flexibility and Craftsmanship: Neon signs are crafted by skilled artisans who bend, shape, and weld glass tubes into intricate designs, resulting in a truly handcrafted piece of art. The craftsmanship involved in creating neon signage adds a unique touch of elegance and authenticity that cannot be replicated by mass-produced LED displays. Each neon sign possesses a distinct personality, making it a captivating focal point for passersby. Nostalgic Appeal and Timeless Aesthetic: Neon signs have a rich history and evoke a sense of nostalgia, harking back to the glamour and vibrancy of earlier eras. Their retro aesthetic carries an inherent charm that resonates with people across generations. Neon signs lend a timeless quality to commercial spaces, effortlessly infusing a sense of character and warmth that LEDs struggle to emulate. High Visibility and Longevity: Neon signs are exceptionally visible, even in adverse weather conditions or during nighttime. Their luminosity cuts through fog, rain, and other visual barriers, ensuring that businesses remain noticeable and identifiable at all times. Additionally, neon signs have a long lifespan, often lasting for many years with proper maintenance. LEDs, while energy-efficient and durable, may require more frequent replacements and lose their brightness over time. While LED technology continues to advance, attempting to rival the timeless appeal of neon, it falls short in capturing the essence and impact of neon lighting in outdoor commercial signage. Neon's unrivaled brilliance, wide color range, artistic craftsmanship, nostalgic allure, and exceptional visibility make it an irreplaceable choice for businesses seeking to make a memorable impression. Neon signage continues to hold its place as a classic and captivating advertising medium that transcends trends and leaves a lasting impression on viewers.

Visit Our Unique Sign & Lighting Laboratory and LED Video Display Showroom
Unique in the entire sign industry, Signs Manufacturing™ built an 85’ by 50’ (over 4,000 sq ft) indoor sign lighting laboratory for testing the longevity, visibility, and effectiveness of all the lighted signs we manufacture.
We have opened our laboratory to the public, for FREE, adding an LED Video Display Showroom because we realized how important one would be to consumers.
We also have samples of every time of building lighting that we offer so that you can see a side-by-side comparison.
If you are considering purchasing an LED Video Display or Digital LED Message Center sign this exclusive opportunity will be particularly important. You must determine which LED spacing is best, so that your sign will be successful, considering how you will use it. Therefore, 6 mm, 8 mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm, and 19 mm 4+billion-color LED Video Display signs are always available for you to compare to monochrome or 4-thousand-shade display signs (also on display.)
