Installation surfaces are rarely perfect flat walls. A huge challenge for installers is mounting a backlit letter onto corrugated metal siding (common on warehouses) or uneven stone. If you just screw it in, the sign will tilt. We solve this by fabricating custom "bridge brackets" or contour-cut backer plates that match the profile of your building's cladding. This ensures that every backlit letter sits perfectly plumb and vertical, regardless of the bumps on the wall behind it. Without this custom hardware, you end up with a wonky backlit letter that casts weird, distorted shadows.

Let’s talk about where the power lives. The transformers (drivers) are the heart of the system, but they hate water and heat. Instead of just tucking them loosely behind the parapet wall, we recommend housing them in a NEMA 3R rated enclosure.

We do the math for you. For long runs, we upgrade to thicker 14 AWG or 12 AWG marine-grade cable. This ensures that the last backlit letter in the string gets the exact same power as the first one, guaranteeing uniform brightness across your entire brand name.
