A guide to your options
A frameless glow from more than one side
Internal LEDs illuminate an opal acrylic box, which can carry applied graphics for branding or information. The format can be used as a projecting sign, a wall or ceiling display, or a countertop feature, with the mounting arrangement designed for the chosen use.
Materials & construction
This lightbox construction uses 5mm opal acrylic. Vinyl graphics can control the colour and branding on the faces. Coloured LEDs are an option, with vinyl generally preferred for controlling the visible face colour.
Choose the finish that fits
Wall or ceiling display
A branded illuminated feature for a suitable interior or exterior setting.
Countertop branding
A glowing display box or brand feature on a flat surface.
Plan the details
For exterior projecting installations, weather drainage and secure support are part of the specification. Additional top-edge support is specified above 500mm projection. The stated size guidance does not replace assessment of the wall, fixing arrangement and exposure.

Your questions, answered
Can these lightboxes be used outside?
Yes, when specified and mounted for external use. Drainage, support and electrical arrangements need to be considered.
Can the box carry my logo?
Yes. Applied graphics can provide your logo, text and colour treatment.
How is this different from a fret-cut tray?
An opal lightbox allows light through its acrylic surfaces. A fret-cut tray has an opaque face with selected illuminated openings.
