An LED retrofit updates the lighting inside a suitable existing sign rather than replacing the entire sign. It may improve illumination and reduce lighting energy use compared with the system being replaced, but the result depends on the selected equipment and operating conditions. We assess the cabinet or letters, compare repair and retrofit options, and help you decide whether keeping the existing sign structure makes sense.

Illustrative examples of sign lighting and servicing. Actual equipment varies.

Best for:

  • Older fluorescent or neon signs
  • Dim or unevenly lit cabinet and box signs
  • Channel letters with failing lamps or LEDs
  • Parking lot and exterior fixtures that need upgrading
  • Businesses wanting lower energy and maintenance costs

Types of Retrofit LED
Upgrades We Offer

Fluorescent-to-LED Conversions

A fluorescent-to-LED conversion replaces the existing lamp system with a compatible LED arrangement. We review cabinet dimensions, light distribution, and power requirements so the proposed upgrade suits the sign rather than simply swapping parts.

  • Replace outdated fluorescent tubes with bright LED modules
  • Even illumination with no flickering
  • Significant reduction in power usage

Neon-to-LED Retrofits

A neon retrofit changes the lighting system in a suitable sign to an LED design. The conversion can change the appearance as well as the electrical arrangement. We help compare the intended look and component options before recommending an approach.

  • Convert fragile neon signs to durable LED replacements
  • Safer, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance
  • Ideal for channel letters, border lighting, and accent signs
Cabinet Sign LED Retrofits

Cabinet Sign LED Retrofits

Retrofitting a cabinet involves planning the lighting layout around its size, depth, and sign face. We review the existing enclosure and select a compatible arrangement to support the intended illumination and service requirements.

  • Remove old lamps and install high-efficiency LED systems
  • Brighter, cleaner illumination day and night
  • Extends the life of existing cabinet structures

Channel Letter LED Replacements

Replacing channel-letter lighting requires components suited to the letter dimensions and power system. We assess the existing construction and help coordinate the replacement layout so the sign retains the intended appearance.

  • Upgrade dim or failing LED modules
  • High-output, UL-listed LEDs
  • Ideal for improving consistency across franchise locations

Parking Lot & Exterior Fixture Upgrades

Exterior fixture upgrades need to suit the area being lit, existing mounts, and electrical conditions. We review the project scope and proposed fixture options, with lighting levels and any applicable requirements assessed for the site.

  • LED floods, wall packs, and area lights
  • Replace outdated HID or fluorescent fixtures
  • Improved coverage and long-term energy savings
