by Graphic Impact – Where Innovation Meets Impressions

At Graphic Impact, we specialize in the design and fabrication of custom light box monument signs and replacement sign faces. These illuminated signs are ideal for businesses, organizations, and institutions looking to increase visibility and make a lasting impression—day or night. Whether you’re seeking a brand-new installation or simply need a face replacement, our in-house capabilities make it easy to deliver outstanding results.

What Are Light Box Monument Signs?

Light box monument signs are ground-mounted signs that are internally illuminated, often placed at the entrance to buildings, campuses, shopping centers, or business parks. The term “light box” refers to the enclosed structure where lighting components—typically LED strips—are housed behind a printed or vinyl-covered translucent face. These signs are especially popular for their clean, modern appearance and visibility in both daylight and nighttime conditions.

Premium Materials: Acrylic and Lexan

Graphic Impact uses only high-quality materials for constructing light box sign faces. Our primary materials of choice are acrylic and Lexan (polycarbonate). Both materials offer excellent optical clarity, weather resistance, and long-lasting durability. Lexan is particularly impact-resistant, making it ideal for outdoor signage exposed to harsh conditions or vandalism.

We can fabricate sign faces in virtually any size or shape, including flat, pan-formed, or embossed styles. This allows for complete design flexibility, ensuring your sign matches your branding and architectural requirements.

Custom Graphics for Maximum Impact

Our sign faces can be customized in two primary ways: digitally printed graphics or precision-cut translucent vinyl. Digitally printed graphics allow for photo-quality images, gradients, and detailed branding elements. For a more traditional appearance, translucent vinyl lettering and logos can be applied over a frosted or colored background. Both options produce vibrant visuals that come to life when backlit.

Graphic Impact uses full-color UV printing technology, ensuring sharp resolution, fade resistance, and excellent adhesion to acrylic and polycarbonate surfaces. All graphics are printed in-house for full quality control and quick turnaround.

Efficient LED Illumination

While older light box signs were typically illuminated using fluorescent tubes, the signage industry has largely shifted to energy-efficient LED lighting. LEDs consume significantly less power, generate less heat, and last far longer than fluorescent bulbs. In fact, many LED systems have lifespans of over 50,000 hours, reducing maintenance costs and service frequency.

Graphic Impact offers LED conversion for existing light boxes as well. If you’re still using outdated fluorescent technology, upgrading to LED can provide better illumination and long-term savings.

Applications of Light Box Signs

Light box monument signs are incredibly versatile and used in a variety of settings:

  • Retail Stores: Promote brand identity and attract foot traffic with illuminated storefront signs.
  • Medical Centers: Direct patients and visitors with lighted directories and facility names.
  • Corporate Campuses: Welcome visitors and mark property boundaries with sleek monument signage.
  • Educational Institutions: Highlight school names, events, or campus entrances.
  • Religious Facilities: Display service times and announcements clearly and professionally.

Easy Face Replacement and Customization

One of the major benefits of using light box signage is the ease of changing out the graphics. Whether your branding has evolved or you need to update contact information, Graphic Impact can quickly produce and install replacement sign faces for most existing boxes. There’s no need to purchase an entirely new unit.

We can match the size and mounting method of your current sign and even upgrade the internal lighting if necessary. This makes it affordable to keep your signage looking modern and professional.
