Front lit Channel Letters are the most common channel letter type. As the name implies, these signs emit illumination only from the front (or face) of the letters. They are often used in both shopping malls and outdoor plazas. Front lit channel letters can be either raceway or flush mounted. Direct Sign Wholesale can produce this letter type in many different font and color combinations.

Standard channel letters have aluminum sides (returns) and backs with colored acrylic faces and are illuminated from the inside with either neon or LEDs (light emitting diodes). Since all of our channel letters are fabricated with aluminum they will never rust.
