Custom Acrylic Light Boxes

Acrylic light boxes use a rigid translucent face to create a bright, durable display with strong daytime color and clear nighttime illumination. Printed graphics, applied films, dimensional elements, and custom colors can be incorporated into the acrylic face, making this construction suitable for storefronts, restaurants, shopping centers, pharmacies, salons, reception areas, and indoor or outdoor commercial signage.

The acrylic thickness, light transmission, graphic method, frame construction, sign depth, LED arrangement, and illuminated surfaces are selected according to the artwork and viewing requirements. Single-sided, double-sided, wall-mounted, suspended, projecting, and freestanding configurations are available according to the project. For outdoor installations, the frame, face retention, wiring, drainage, sealing, power components, and mounting system are engineered around the expected weather exposure and installation conditions.

Power Supply

Power supplies are selected according to the LED load, sign quantity, installation environment, and destination-market input voltage. A typical system accepts 110–240 V AC input and provides 12 V DC output.

Indoor and outdoor power-supply options are available. RGB systems may require compatible controllers, amplifiers, or additional control components depending on the sign size and programmed effects.

Production, Ordering & Support

Standard production normally takes approximately 2–5 business days after the drawing and specifications have been approved.

Large quantities, complex logos, special surface finishes, and projects requiring complete-sign certification may require additional production time.

  • Before shipment, every set undergoes:
  • Drawing and specification verification
  • Structural and surface inspection
  • LED illumination testing
  • Lighting uniformity inspection
  • Aging test
  • Electrical component inspection
  • Final appearance inspection
  • Packaging inspection

Product photos and videos are provided for customer confirmation before shipment.

Certified LED modules, power supplies, wiring, and other electrical components are available according to project requirements.

Available component certifications may include:

  • CE
  • UL
  • RoHS

If certification for the complete finished sign is required, please inform us before quotation. Complete-sign certification can be arranged according to the destination market, product construction, and applicable standards. Additional testing fees and production time may apply.

The packaging method is selected according to the sign size, weight, structure, surface finish, quantity, and shipping method.

  • Available packaging includes:
  • Protective EPE foam
  • Reinforced export cartons
  • Wooden cases or crates
  • Separate protection for electrical components and accessories

Letter faces, finished surfaces, edges, and electrical components are individually protected to reduce movement, scratches, and impact during international transportation.

Tonight Sign provides a three-year warranty for all signage products supplied to customers worldwide.

During the warranty period, if a product or component fails because of a confirmed manufacturing or material defect rather than incorrect installation, misuse, accidental damage, or unauthorized modification, we will reproduce the affected product or part and ship the replacement to the customer at no charge.

Photos and videos may be required to confirm the issue and prepare the correct replacement. For illuminated products, basic electrical test information may also be requested when necessary.

Please send us:

  • Logo or vector artwork
  • Required dimensions

Our team will review your project and recommend the appropriate construction, face material, LED configuration, power supply, mounting method, and packaging solution.

Regular cleaning and inspection help maintain the acrylic surface, even illumination, structural appearance, and service life of your acrylic light box.

  • Turn off the power before cleaning or inspection.
  • Remove dust using a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
  • Use clean water with mild soap for deeper cleaning.
  • Wipe the acrylic gently to avoid scratches and surface damage.
  • Avoid abrasive tools, ammonia, acetone, strong solvents, alcohol-based cleaners, and high-pressure water.
  • Do not clean the acrylic surface while it is hot or illuminated.
  • Inspect the acrylic panels, printed graphics or films, frame, joints, seals, drainage openings, wiring, LEDs, power supply, and mounting hardware.
  • Keep ventilation and drainage openings clean and unobstructed.
  • Contact a qualified technician if you notice cracks, warping, water entry, loose wiring, flickering, uneven illumination, unusual heat, or reduced brightness.

Maintenance frequency depends on the installation environment, operating hours, weather, and exposure to sunlight, dust, moisture, salt, heat, or pollution.

Acrylic Light Boxes FAQ

Translucent acrylic is commonly selected when smooth illuminated graphics and effective light diffusion are required. Clear, colored, UV-printed, or film-finished acrylic may also be used for particular visual effects, but the material transmission and nighttime appearance should be reviewed with the lighting system.

Depending on the required appearance, graphics may be produced using UV printing, translucent film, vinyl graphics, colored acrylic, or a combination of treatments. Daytime color, nighttime illumination, graphic detail, outdoor exposure, and future replacement requirements help determine the most suitable method.

Acrylic diffusion, face-to-LED distance, LED output, spacing, internal reflection, and frame depth are engineered together. The completed light box should be illuminated and inspected because highly saturated colors, narrow shapes, and shallow constructions can affect perceived uniformity.

The feasible seamless size depends on available sheet dimensions, acrylic thickness, transportation constraints, thermal movement, and the supporting frame. Larger designs may require divided panels or carefully planned joints, which should be positioned to minimize their visual effect.

Yes, many letters, logos, curves, circles, and other shapes can be produced using cut, formed, or fabricated acrylic components. Feasibility depends on the minimum radii, panel thickness, overall dimensions, internal LED space, structural support, and required access for servicing.

Both configurations can be produced when appropriate for the project. Single-sided boxes suit wall-facing applications, while double-sided structures are useful for suspended, projecting, freestanding, or open-area displays and generally require a different frame and lighting layout.

Yes. It can be designed for outdoor use when suitable acrylic, seals, drainage, ventilation, wiring, electrical components, finishes, and mounting hardware are selected. Sunlight, rain, temperature changes, wind, salt exposure, and installation orientation should be considered before production.

A removable or serviceable face can be incorporated using screws, retainers, hinged access, or another project-specific frame detail. The preferred access direction and available working space should be confirmed before production, especially for high-mounted or built-in light boxes.

Acrylic naturally expands and contracts as temperatures change, so the frame should provide suitable support and movement allowance without overtightening the panel. UV resistance and long-term color stability depend on the acrylic grade, surface treatment, exposure, cleaning method, and installation environment.

Turn off the power and clean the face gently with water, mild soap, and a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive tools, strong solvents, alcohol-based cleaners, and high-pressure water, and regularly check seals, drainage openings, mounting points, wiring, and accessible electrical components.
