Remote Design & Production Artwork Service
Channel Letter Design
Production-ready layouts for illuminated and non-illuminated channel letters — optimized letterforms, LED and power detail, raceway or flush-mount patterns, and cut files your shop can run the same day.
What You Get
Letterforms Drawn for the Shop Floor
Every channel letter package is checked for stroke width, return depth, and mounting reality before it leaves our desk.
Optimized Letterforms
Stroke widths, counters, and spacing adjusted so thin serifs and tight counters still fabricate cleanly at real return depths.
Material & Trim Callouts
Aluminum returns, acrylic face color, trim cap size and color, vinyl overlays, and paint references specified letter by letter.
LED & Electrical Layout
Module spacing, power supply counts, raceway or backer construction, and power entry location noted for the installer.
Permit-Ready Elevations
Scaled storefront elevations with letter heights, total sign area, and mounting notes ready for landlord and municipal review.

Channel Letter Design FAQ
What is channel letter design?
Channel letter design is the layout and engineering of individual dimensional letters for a storefront — letterform spacing, return depth, face and trim cap selection, LED module layout, and the mounting method, all drawn so a fabricator can build directly from the files.
Do you design front-lit, halo-lit, and non-illuminated letters?
Yes. We design front-lit acrylic-face letters, reverse channel halo-lit letters, combination front/back-lit sets, and non-illuminated fabricated or flat-cut letters, with the illumination method detailed on the drawings.
Do the drawings work for a sign permit?
Yes. Sets include scaled elevations on the storefront, letter heights, total sign area, and mounting and electrical notes so the package can be submitted to the municipality or a landlord's sign criteria review.
What files do I receive?
Layered Adobe Illustrator and EPS vectors with outlined type, cut-ready paths for faces, returns, and backs, PDF drawing sets, and a color-accurate storefront rendering for client approval.
How fast is turnaround?
Initial channel letter concepts are typically ready in 2 to 3 business days, with final production files delivered within a week of approval.
