Raceways, mounting kits and standoffs for signs

Our letters mount flush to the wall. Each letter has threaded studs on its back; you tape up the full-size paper template, drill where it marks, and set the studs in the wall with anchors and silicone. Every new sign ships with its template and mounting hardware, and how to install channel letters walks through the job. Flush mounting is also called direct mounting.

This collection covers the other cases.

A channel letter raceway is a slim metal box, painted to match your fascia, that the letters sit on. It holds the power supply and wiring, so the building gets a few mounting holes and one power feed instead of holes behind every letter. Landlords often ask for one. Order it with new letters and they arrive pre-mounted, or on its own for letters you already have. It is usually about 1 ft longer than the letters; the raceway length helper works it out, and raceway vs direct mount compares the two methods.

The letter mounting hardware kit holds stainless threaded studs, anchors for masonry and drywall, washers, nuts and exterior silicone, for re-hanging or moving letters. Mounting on brick, stucco and drywall explains which anchor goes where.

Stainless steel standoffs hold flat signs off the wall. Our halo-lit acrylic panels always use them so the light can spread behind. We mount channel letters on standoffs only if you ask for a floating look.
