How to Choose, Design, and Mount LED Neon Signs from Custom Neon Signs Now

 

LED neon signs aren’t just lights — they’re statements. Whether you’re decorating your home, creating a jaw-dropping wedding backdrop, or adding the perfect finishing touch to your business, the right neon sign can completely transform a space.

At Custom Neon Signs Now, you can choose from ready-made styles, design your own neon signs, or even create a neon sign from image. From inspiration to installation, we make it simple.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through:

  1. How to choose the perfect LED neon sign.

  2. How to design one that’s completely unique.

  3. How to mount it so it looks amazing and lasts for years.


1. Why Choose LED Neon Signs?

Before we talk about designing and mounting, let’s look at why LED neon signs are the perfect choice over traditional neon.

Energy Efficient

LED technology uses far less electricity than glass neon, which means you can keep your sign glowing for hours without worrying about big energy bills.

Safe for Any Space

Unlike fragile glass tubes, LED neon signs are made with flexible tubing that stays cool to the touch. This makes them safer for homes, events, and shops.

Durable and Long-Lasting

A well-made LED neon sign can last for years — often 50,000 hours or more — without losing its brightness.

Customisable to Your Vision

With custom neon signs, you’re in complete control of the text, colours, shapes, and size.


2. Step One: Choosing Your LED Neon Sign

The first step is deciding what kind of sign you need.

A. Define Your Purpose

Think about why you want the sign. Is it for:

  • Home decor – a bedroom, living room, or home bar?

  • Events – a wedding, birthday, or corporate party?

  • Business branding – a shopfront, cafe, or salon?

Your “why” will shape your design choices.

B. Browse Our Collections

If you need inspiration, our LED neon signs collection is a great starting point. You’ll find designs for every style, from romantic scripts to bold block lettering.

C. Pick the Right Size

  • Small (30–50cm): Ideal for shelves, desks, or small wall spaces.

  • Medium (50–100cm): Perfect for a bedroom feature wall or behind a bar.

  • Large (100cm+): Great for weddings, events, or big branding displays.

D. Choose Your Colour

From soft warm white to bright pink, neon blue, or even colour-changing options — your colour choice will set the mood.


3. Step Two: Designing Your Own Neon Sign

If you want something 100% personal, our design your own neon signs tool lets you create exactly what you have in mind.

A. Add Your Text

Whether it’s your name, a favourite quote, or a business slogan, you can type it in and instantly preview the design.

B. Select the Perfect Font

  • Script fonts for romantic or elegant vibes.

  • Bold block fonts for a modern, eye-catching look.

  • Handwriting styles for something fun and casual.

C. Pick Your Colour

Match your brand colours, wedding theme, or simply your personal style.

D. Backboard Options

Choose from a clear acrylic cut-to-shape board, a full rectangle, or other shapes for easy mounting.


4. Step Three: Neon Signs from Images

Sometimes, words aren’t enough — you might want a symbol, logo, or piece of artwork brought to life in neon.

Our neon sign from image service makes that possible.

Perfect for:

  • Company logos for offices or storefronts.

  • Wedding monograms.

  • Iconic images or shapes for themed events.

Simply upload your image, and our team will send you a custom design proof and quote.


5. Step Four: Mounting Your LED Neon Sign

Once your sign arrives, it’s time for the final step — getting it up on the wall or display.

A. What’s in the Box

When you order from Custom Neon Signs Now, you’ll receive:

  • Your finished sign with pre-drilled holes.

  • Mounting hardware (or optional stand).

  • Power supply with dimmer control.

B. Mounting Options

1. Wall Mounting

  • Use the included screws and wall plugs.

  • For plasterboard, consider using anchors for extra support.

  • Mark your drill points with a pencil before you start.

2. Hanging Display

  • Hang your sign using chains or wires from hooks — great for shop windows.

3. Freestanding

  • Use a stand for portable displays, trade shows, or events.


6. Mounting Tips for a Professional Look

  • Check It’s Level: Use a spirit level to avoid a crooked sign.

  • Hide Your Cables: Cable clips or trunking can keep things tidy.

  • Consider the Backdrop: For events, pair your sign with flowers, greenery, or fabric drapes for extra impact.

  • Position for Visibility: Place your sign where it’s eye-level and easily seen.


7. Caring for Your Neon Light Sign

A neon light sign is low-maintenance, but here are a few tips to keep it looking great:

  • Dust gently with a soft cloth or duster.

  • Avoid harsh chemicals — a damp cloth is fine.

  • Store carefully if you need to pack it away.
