Illuminated 3D Letters – Light That Attracts!
Illuminated 3D letters are an impressive way to highlight a brand and capture the attention of customers. They are perfect for marking company headquarters, retail outlets, restaurants, hotels, or shopping malls. Thanks to LED lighting, they are perfectly visible both day and night, making them an indispensable marketing tool. The durable construction resistant to weather conditions ensures their longevity and reliability for years.
Our letters combine modern design with advanced technology, guaranteeing an aesthetic and professional effect. The use of high-quality materials and precise craftsmanship makes them not only a functional sign but also an elegant element of a company's image.
Why choose illuminated 3D letters?
Visibility 24/7 – the letters are readable both during the day and at night.
Durability – resistance to weather conditions such as rain, snow, or UV radiation ensures long-term use.
Energy efficiency – the use of high-efficiency LED diodes reduces electricity costs.
Versatility – a wide selection of colors, shapes, and lighting effects allows the letters to be tailored to the brand's character.
Impressive design – LED lighting (front or back – Halo effect) adds prestige and modernity.
Easy customization – a variety of materials and the ability to tailor the design to individual needs.
Installation of 3D letters – precision and safety
3D letters can be installed in various ways, adapted to the specifics of the project and the client's requirements. Each method guarantees durability and aesthetics, but it is important to properly prepare the surface and use appropriate installation techniques.

Technical parameters of illuminated 3D letters
Types of 3D letters
3D letters with illuminated face
In this option, the front of the letter lights up, meaning that light penetrates through the face made of plexiglass, highlighting the color and shape of the sign. This is a classic solution used in illuminated advertising, ensuring high visibility and intense illumination.
3D letters with Halo effect
The Halo effect involves emitting light behind the letter, which reflects off the mounting surface (e.g., wall, facade, or advertising board). In this solution, the front of the letter remains unlit, and the LED light placed inside the letters reflects off the surface, creating a subtle glow around the shape of the text, giving an elegant and subtle appearance.
Letter construction
The side of the letter is made of precisely bent aluminum tape with a thickness of 0.6mm, with a properly finished edge allowing for the attachment of the letter face. The availability of colors depends on the chosen type of tape - detailed options can be checked in the calculator. Two types of tapes are available:
Flat tape
Letters with flat tape
Flat tape detail
Flat tape finishing drawing
Tape with double folded edge (DFT)
Letters with folded tape (DFT)
DFT tape detail
DFT tape finishing drawing
Letter face
The face is made of a translucent material that retains its color during the day while allowing illumination in the dark. We make faces from:
Cast colored plexiglass, 3 mm thick
Opal milk plexiglass, 3 mm, with the option of being covered with translucent film in a wide range of colors.
Opal milk plexiglass, 3 mm, covered with full-color CMYK print film
The colors of plexiglass and films are listed in the “Available materials” tab
Letter back
Foamed PVC: thickness 10 mm
Illumination
Light source: highest quality waterproof LED diodes (IP 66-68)
Available light colors:
Warm - 3500-4500 K
Neutral - 5500-6500 K
Cold - approx. 9000 K
Power supplies are provided separately, intended for indoor installation
Letter mounting methods
Directly on the facade
Installation requires disassembling the received letters, i.e.:
Unscrewing the screws connecting the aluminum tape to the rear PVC plate (10 mm) - “removing the cover”
Screwing the PVC to the facade
Connecting the power supply
Reinstalling the "cover"
Connecting to the power supply (by the installer). Each element is equipped with a power cable approximately 0.5m long.
On an aluminum frame
The client receives letters already mounted on a frame made of 25x25x3mm aluminum angles, powder-coated in the RAL color indicated by the client. For shipping purposes, long inscriptions are divided into sections to facilitate transport.
Power cables - the letters are connected to each other, and a collective cable (bus) is led out at the location indicated by the client. The connection to the power supply is made by the installer. In the case of inscriptions divided into sections, a cable is led out from each element.
At the client's request, we can provide a paper template with the spacing of the mounting anchors.
On a panel
The panel is made of Tu-Bond, in the same technology as our single-sided Tu-Bond lightboxes, with a side thickness of 40 mm.
The letters are delivered mounted on the panel. For shipping purposes, panels are divided into sections to facilitate transport.
Power cables - the letters are connected to each other, and a collective cable is led out at the location indicated by the client. The connection to the power supply is made by the installer.
At the client's request, we can provide a paper template with the spacing of the mounting anchors.
Note! Halo effect letters must be mounted on a panel due to their construction.
Important installation information
Mounting elements are not included - their selection depends on the type and construction of the wall.
Installation should be carried out by a qualified person who will select the appropriate mounting elements for the surface.
For clients from Silesia, we can recommend proven installation teams specializing in the installation of letters and lightboxes. Interested parties are asked to contact the Customer Service Department.
Notes on 3D letters
Recommendations for graphics and tapes
CMYK graphics and those covered with translucent films are recommended to be used with tape with a folded edge.
Flat tapes are recommended for letters with graphics made from colored plexiglass, due to the visible edge of the opal plexiglass with the applied color. At the client's request, we will make letters from opal plexiglass covered with translucent film with flat tape - individual calculation, please contact kasetony@dd.com.pl
Dimensions of letters and elements
Minimum letter height: 200 mm, maximum: 1000 mm.
Flat tape is recommended for letters with a height from 200 mm to 600 mm.
Minimum distance between bending lines on the aluminum tape: 10 mm.
Minimum bending radius: 10 mm for flat tape, 20 mm for tape with an edge.
Panels and frames
The largest panel/frame for shipping: the sum of the width and length cannot exceed 2800 mm, and the length itself no more than 2500 mm.
The largest panel we can make: 1100 mm x 2300 mm.
Large panels/frames are divided into parts that meet shipping restrictions.
Fonts and characters
Automatic calculation applies to simple fonts, such as Arial. For complex fonts/characters (e.g., Sherif), an additional charge should be expected.
For orders containing letters/characters of different sizes, it is recommended to calculate based on the dominant height to avoid additional costs.
Availability of tapes
Tapes are ordered for specific projects, so extended lead times may occur due to availability from the Manufacturer.
Reservations - we reserve the right to reject an order if it is found impossible to execute.
Note
All restrictions are aimed at ensuring the highest quality of execution and optimizing the production and shipping process.
Please consult in detail when placing orders.

How to Prepare Files for Creating Dimensional Letters
Dimensional Letters with Graphics Applied with Backlit Film
In the project, it is necessary to include references (arrows) with a description of the film number to clearly specify the colors of the materials used. We use Avery series 4500 TF backlit films – before designing, please familiarize yourself with the available colors of this series listed in the “Available Materials” tab. At the Client's request, for larger projects, we can use translucent film from another manufacturer specified by the Client.
Dimensional Letters with Graphics – Full Color Printing (CMYK)
Full color printing can be used in combination with backlit film or as standalone graphics.
The project should be prepared in the size of the ordered use + 3 mm bleed
Prepare the project for UV printing. All rules for proper file preparation can be found in the Help section.
Letter Design
Letters should be saved as curves, and all special effects (shadows, gradients) must be removed.
Panels and Frames
If a panel is ordered, it should be placed on the project as a rectangle.
The design of the frame and panel is carried out by D&D during the production stage, and wall mounting points are agreed upon with the Client.
Letter Mounting
Mounting points for letters to the panel and frame are designed and executed by D&D during production.
For non-standard mounting solutions, we recommend prior consultation.
