What's included in the package?
Every LitCraft order ships with everything you need to get your sign up and running:
- Your custom LED neon sign
- Remote control
- Light dimmer
- Power supply / adapter
- Metal hanging cables
- Wall mounting kit (standoff screws)
All signs come with a 1-year warranty covering the neon tubes against defects and failure under normal use. See the full package contents page.
What are your neon signs made of and how long do they last?
Our signs are made of high-quality silicone flex tubes with LED lights inside. They produce bright, intense colors while being more durable and affordable than traditional glass neon.
Each LED inside the tube is rated for up to 50,000 hours of use. That works out to over 27 years if you run your sign 5 hours a day, or about 5.7 years of continuous 24/7 use.
If you run your sign around the clock, we recommend switching it off for a 24-hour period every 14 days. Transformers and LEDs can overheat from constant use, which decreases their total lifetime. This rest period helps maintain the specified lifespan of your sign.
Can you create any shape or design?
Yes. You imagine, we design. Even if you cannot sketch, describe what you need and we will be happy to help.
If you have a custom design in mind, email us at support@litcraft.co and a team member will be in touch with you shortly to discuss your needs.
How long does processing take?
LitCraft designers need about 3 to 5 working days to make a sign once the design is approved and finalised. Express orders are made in approximately 2 to 3 working days.
We will reach out with tracking information as soon as the sign is made.
Where do you make your LED neon signs?
LitCraft signs are designed by our team in Toronto, Canada and Dublin, Ireland. They are manufactured in Texas, USA, or in Mainland, China.
How do I submit my own design details for my custom neon sign?
Please go to litcraft.co/pages/rfq and submit the design details form there.
A team member will review your request and reach out with details on how to move forward. The design process can take a few days depending on the complexity of the design.
Can I view a mock or preview of my neon sign?
Of course. We will share a mock so you can review it before production starts.
How to clean my neon sign?
Ensure that the sign is unplugged before cleaning and follow this guide (here) for a step by step guide on how to clean it using a dampt microfiber cloth.
How do I install my sign?
Installation has two parts:
Plugging in the sign. Your sign arrives wired and ready to go. It is a true plug-and-play setup. All you need to do is connect the push-fit connectors between the sign, dimmer, and power supply, then plug it into any standard outlet. Use the included remote control to turn it on and adjust brightness. See the full guide on how to connect your sign.
Mounting the sign. Hanging a LitCraft sign is just like hanging a picture frame at home. We include standoff screws and metal hanging cables with every order so you have everything you need for a clean, professional look right out of the box. See the full mounting guide.
What background or backing options do you offer?
We offer several acrylic backings such as clear, cut-to-shape, full rectangle and more. The best choice depends on where the sign will be installed and the look you are going for.
For photos and examples of each backing style, see our Backing Styles Guide.
How do I choose the right sign size?
The ideal size depends on how far people will stand from the sign and how much wall space you have. As a general rule, larger signs are easier to read from a distance and look more proportional behind bars, in storefronts and at events.
For visual examples and recommended sizes by use case, visit our Sign Size Selection Guide.
What neon tube colors are available?
We offer a wide palette of single colors, warm and cool whites, and multi-color options. Some colors appear softer or brighter depending on your wall color and lighting.
To see our full chart with examples and tips on combining colors, check our Neon Tube Colors & Palette Guide.
