What makes 3D Letter Signs work
3D letter signs are raised letters and logos cut from material 1 to 10 cm deep. Because each letter stands off the surface it throws a shadow, and a company name gains a weight on a reception wall, inside a shop or on a fascia that flat lettering never has.
We make them for UK offices, shops, salons, pubs and hotels in solid acrylic, aluminium or lightweight composite, painted, brushed or in a metal finish. LED can be built in as face-lit or halo-lit letters if you want the sign lit. Send us your logo with a photo of the wall or shopfront, and we prepare a free design preview.

Which parts light up?
What lights up on 3d letter signs, what stays printed or unlit – and from which size. Your free design preview shows it for your own logo.
Unlit as standard
3D letters rely on depth and shadow for their effect and need no power.
LED as an option
They can be made face-lit or halo-lit. The lighting has to be planned into the build, so tell us in your enquiry.
Depth
Indoors 1–3 cm is enough; on a fascia or facade 5–10 cm works better. The right figure follows from letter height and viewing distance.

Free design previewAcrylic, aluminium or composite: which material?
| Material | Appearance | Where | Works best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solid acrylic | Deep colour, crisp edges, metal effects possible | Mostly indoors | Reception walls, showrooms, offices |
| Aluminium | Brushed or painted, with the feel of real metal | Indoors and outdoors | Shopfronts and entrances |
| Composite letters | Any RAL colour, very low weight | Indoors and outdoors | Large formats and exhibition stands |
Getting depth and size right
The 3D effect comes from depth. Inside, where people stand close and every millimetre of shadow is visible, 1–3 cm does the job. A fascia needs 5–10 cm; anything shallower looks flat from further away. Letter height follows the usual rule of about 1 cm for each metre of reading distance.
Something people often overlook: deeper letters call for a bolder typeface. A very thin font cut at a large depth soon resembles a row of narrow sticks. We check for this in the design preview.
On stand-offs or flat to the wall?
On stand-offs the letters sit a short distance off the wall. They appear to float, and the extra shadow strengthens the 3D effect. It is the smarter-looking option, though it does mean drilling.
With adhesive mounting they go straight onto the wall. It is quicker, involves no drilling and suits smooth interior walls and exhibition walls.
A full-size drilling template is supplied so that each letter ends up exactly where it belongs. Most tradespeople can fit the letters without a specialist sign fitter. If you have no installer, we can help you find one near you.
3D letters or illuminated letters?
3D letters rely on material and shadow. With no power and no electrician needed, they suit interiors and shopfronts that do not have to glow after dark. If the name must be seen at night, illuminated letters are the answer, and for a reception wall a halo-lit logo.
Still deciding? The letters can be prepared so that LED is added later; just say so in your enquiry. For flat lettering in 3–20 mm acrylic see our flat cut letters, and for real metal our stainless steel letters.
3D letter signs across the UK
We make 3D letters and logos for businesses throughout the UK, from office receptions and salons to high-street shopfronts. For local detail, see our pages on illuminated signs in London, Manchester, Edinburgh and Glasgow, or the illuminated signs by city overview.
Putting letters on the outside of a building? Depending on size, position and lighting, a sign may need advertisement consent from your council. Our guide to planning permission for shop signs explains the rules.
