Neon Signs

The glow of a neon sign is hard to beat for atmosphere in a restaurant, bar, salon or retail interior. Traditional glass neon is a specialist craft involving hand-bent tubes and high-voltage transformers, and today many customers choose LED neon flex for a similar look with less fragility. We quote neon-style signage and give honest advice on which route suits your space, budget and how the sign will be handled.

  • Script logos for bars and coffee shops

Choosing a size

Neon-style signs are usually sized by the length of tube or flex needed to draw the design, so simpler lettering and fewer strokes go further. Script fonts look best large enough that loops stay distinct; tiny lettering tends to blur into a glow. Consider the wall or window space, the viewing distance inside the venue and where the power supply will sit.

Standards and compliance

Neon and LED neon signs are electrical items and must be installed and connected by suitably qualified people in line with applicable electrical requirements. Traditional neon uses high voltage and fragile glass, so placement out of reach is important. Signs fixed to a shopfront or visible from outside may need landlord approval, which remains the customer's responsibility; we can advise.

Same-day conditions

  • Neon and neon-style signs are made to order and same-day is generally not possible; the lead time is confirmed on the quote
  • For a launch or event, a printed poster, foam board or vinyl window graphic of the design can sometimes be produced urgently as a placeholder
  • Urgent print items depend on stock, capacity, usable artwork and full payment before the configured cutoff

Pricing

Signs are priced by quotation based on size, material, quantity and finishing. Request a quote.

FAQs

Should I choose glass neon or LED neon flex?
For most interiors, LED neon flex is the practical choice: it is less fragile, runs cooler and is easier to install. Traditional glass neon suits customers who want the authentic look and can place it where it will not be knocked.
Can neon signs go outdoors?
Some can, if built and rated for outdoor use and properly protected. Tell us where the sign will go so we quote the right construction.
Can you copy a design I found online?
We can only produce artwork you have the right to use, such as your own logo or wording. We are happy to help develop an original design.
Can I rent a neon sign for one event?
We quote signs for purchase. For a single event, a printed backdrop or banner wall with your wording may be a more practical option.
