At Haizel Signs and Graphics, we design and fabricate high-quality channel letters and illuminated signs for retail stores, restaurants, salons, offices, clinics, plazas, commercial buildings, and franchise locations throughout Ottawa.
Illuminated signage gives your business a professional, polished appearance that works around the clock. Whether your storefront is on a busy commercial strip or tucked into a plaza, a well-lit sign improves street visibility, attracts walk-in customers, and reinforces your brand identity day and night.
Channel Letter & Illuminated Sign Options
We fabricate and install a full range of illuminated and dimensional sign types for Ottawa businesses.
Front-Lit Channel Letters
The most common illuminated sign type — individual letters with LED modules inside that shine light through a translucent acrylic face. Bold, bright, and highly visible from the street.
Back-Lit (Halo-Lit) Channel Letters
Reverse-lit letters mounted away from the wall, creating a soft halo glow effect behind each letter. A premium, upscale look popular with professional offices, salons, and boutiques.
Combination Letters
Front-lit and halo-lit combined in a single sign — light shines through the face and glows behind the letter simultaneously for maximum visual impact.
Non-Illuminated Dimensional Letters
Three-dimensional letters in metal, acrylic, or foam with no internal lighting. A clean, professional option for interior lobbies, office entrances, and lower-traffic locations.
LED Illuminated Signs
Custom LED sign panels and displays for storefronts, windows, and interior spaces. Energy-efficient, long-lasting, and available in a wide range of colours and configurations.
Lightbox Signs
Illuminated cabinet signs with a translucent printed face that glows evenly at night. Ideal for plazas, strip malls, and businesses that need consistent, uniform illumination.
Raceway-Mounted Channel Letters
Letters mounted on a metal raceway channel that houses the wiring and transformer. Easier to install and ideal for buildings where direct wall penetration is not permitted.
Flush-Mounted Channel Letters
Letters mounted directly to the building face with concealed wiring for a clean, seamless look. Preferred when a minimal, architectural appearance is required.
Acrylic Face Letters
Flat or dimensional letters cut from coloured or clear acrylic. Versatile, cost-effective, and suitable for both illuminated and non-illuminated applications.
Aluminum Return Letters
Channel letters with aluminum returns (sides) for a durable, weather-resistant finish. Available in painted or brushed metal finishes to match your brand.
Benefits of Illuminated Signage
Better Street Visibility
Illuminated signs are visible from a greater distance and in all lighting conditions — day, dusk, and night.
Professional Storefront Branding
A well-lit sign communicates that your business is established, credible, and open for business.
Long-Lasting LED Lighting
Modern LED modules last 50,000+ hours with minimal maintenance, far outlasting older neon or fluorescent options.
Energy-Efficient Operation
LED illumination uses significantly less power than traditional lighting, reducing your operating costs over time.
Fully Custom Design
Choose your colours, fonts, logo shapes, and letter sizes — every sign is built to match your brand exactly.
Versatile Applications
Suitable for plazas, retail units, restaurants, offices, clinics, commercial buildings, and franchise locations.
Strong First Impression
An illuminated sign is often the first thing a customer sees — make it count with a sign that reflects your brand quality.
