High-Visibility Extruded Aluminum Sign Cabinets

Sparks Sign Company manufactures custom cabinet signs in-house. A cabinet sign (or light box) is a single, large extruded aluminum frame that houses the lighting components. Cabinet signs, often called light boxes, provide the maximum amount of illuminated square footage for the lowest cost compared to individual LED channel letters. When you are ready, request a quote for your cabinet sign.

  • Before any sign goes into production, our designers provide full-color sign mockups and architectural renderings.
  • We superimpose the design onto photos of your actual building or vehicle so you can approve the exact scale and placement.
  • Sparks Sign Company is a fully UL Listed electric sign fabricator (UL #2348836).
  • Our local team typically responds within 1 business day.

Inside an Illuminated Sign Cabinet

Before the face goes in, you can see the LED modules wired in neat lines across the back of the cabinet. All of our illuminated cabinet signs are manufactured using high-efficiency LED modules and power supplies.

Because we manufacture custom business signs in-house, we can offer rapid production times, strict quality control, and factory-direct pricing.

We print your new graphics on highly durable, translucent polycarbonate or acrylic sheets that slide perfectly into your existing track. Still lit by fluorescent tubes? We specialize in fluorescent to LED sign retrofits.
