The #1 BEST LETTERS in Northeast Ohio

What are Sign LETTERS?

Sign letters—commonly known as channel letters or dimensional letters—are individually crafted letters or logos mounted directly to a building or sign structure. These letters can be illuminated or non-illuminated and are designed to give your brand a professional, high-impact presence. They are one of the most popular and effective choices for exterior signage across retail, office, and institutional settings.

At Akers Signs, we custom-design, fabricate, and install high-quality letter signage that helps businesses in Canton, Akron, and throughout Northeast Ohio stand out with clarity and style

Uses for Sign LETTERS

Sign letters are used by a wide variety of businesses and organizations to create bold, readable signage with a clean and professional look:

  • Retail Stores & Strip Malls: Channel letters are a staple on storefronts, especially in shopping centers and plazas.

  • Restaurants & Cafés: Provide high visibility and help draw attention in busy commercial districts.

  • Office Buildings: Dimensional letters add elegance to entryways, lobbies, and building façades.

  • Hospitals & Clinics: Clean, clear branding is crucial for identification and wayfinding.

  • Schools & Churches: Wall-mounted letters offer durable and professional branding for main entrances and facilities.

Sign letters are versatile and scalable—perfect for large buildings or small boutiques alike.

Types of Sign LETTERS

At Akers Signs, we offer a wide range of letter styles and materials to fit your aesthetic, lighting needs, and budget:

  • Channel Letters: Individually lit letters with LED illumination, often mounted to a raceway or directly to a wall. Options include:

    • Front-lit Channel Letters (most common)

    • Reverse-lit (Halo) Letters for a glowing effect

    • Combination-lit Letters for a dramatic look

  • Dimensional Letters: 3D letters made from acrylic, aluminum, or metal, available with or without lighting. Great for indoor and outdoor use.

  • Backlit Letters: Provide a soft halo glow around each letter for upscale appeal—ideal for high-end retail or corporate signage.

  • Flat Cut Letters: Precision-cut from durable materials, offering a sharp, modern look for lobby or directional signage.

We’ll help you choose the best materials and style to reflect your brand and meet visibility requirements.
