Lettering styles
- Flat-cut letters – cut from solid sheet such as acrylic or ACP, fixed flush or on spacers.
- Built-up letters – deeper fabricated letters with sides and a face for facades.
- Face-lit channel letters – the letter face glows.
- Halo-lit letters – light washes the wall behind each letter.
- Letters on a backing panel – mounted onto ACP or perspex for a framed look.

Using the filters
Narrow the list with the filters at the top of the category:
- Size – letter height and overall logo width; taller letters for facades viewed from the road, smaller letters for reception walls.
- Material – acrylic (many colours, glossy), ACP (light and weather resistant) and fabricated metal for built-up letters.
- Finish – gloss or matt, painted or vinyl-faced, with flush, spacer or stand-off fixing.
- Turnaround – 3D letters are made to order; the timeline is confirmed on the quote after your artwork is approved.
What we need for 3D letters
- A vector logo or exact font name. Letters are cut straight from the file. See vector artwork for signage.
- Photos and measurements of the wall, and what it is made of.
- Whether the letters are indoors or outdoors, and whether you want lighting.
- Any landlord or centre rules on sign size and position.
For indoor reception logos, see also reception signs; for building signage, see shopfront signs.
