Lobby signs for businesses are intended to make an impression upon your clients or customers. Often businesses want to give their office a feeling of authority, presence, quality, and much more. One element of lobby signage that really helps build brand presence is lighting.
Back-lit lobby signs are impressive, but you may have questions about them before you’re ready to commit. Here’s what you need to know about back-lit signs for your lobby.
Energy Usage
Yes, back-lit lobby signs will use some electricity, while your typical plastic or metal directory signs don’t use energy at all. However, we make lobby signs with highly energy-efficient LED lighting. The impact of a back-lit sign is often worth the small additional energy cost a business will incur. Further, these signs can be turned off when you’re not expecting a lot of traffic in your lobby.
Light Levels
Just how bright are these signs? You certainly wouldn’t want your lobby sign to be a main source of light in your office space. That being said: it’s not a weak light. Even in a very well-lit lobby, the back-lighting behind your lobby sign will be obvious and impressive.
You also don’t need to light up every corner of a back-lit lobby sign. Using light sparingly can make a more dramatic impact. Consider our back-lit lobby sign for Barkett Realty, where the moderate lighting gives the subtle impression of a skyline.
Color Lights
At Captivating Signs, we can light your lobby sign with different colors. If a certain color would look best with your logo or with your existing lobby décor, we can either install a colored light or use acrylic elements of the sign to add color as the light moves through it.
