Sector: Sport & hospitality

Services Provided: Custom LED Faux-Neon, Exterior Channel Letters, Accent Lighting

The Neon Noodle, a trendy new Asian-fusion eatery located on a bustling high street, needed to cut through the visual noise of competing businesses. They required high-impact exterior signage to draw in late-night foot traffic and a vibrant interior feature wall that customers would want to photograph and share on social media.

Just Signs & Lighting designed, manufactured, and installed a cohesive lighting and signage package:

• Exterior: Face-lit LED channel letters mounted on a matte black ACM (Aluminum Composite Material) backing panel for maximum contrast.
• Interior: A custom-engineered, energy-efficient faux-neon script sign reading "Send Noodles" for the main dining area, offering the classic glow of traditional neon without the high voltage or fragility.

"Just Signs & Lighting took our branding and literally made it shine. Our interior neon wall has become a staple on local Instagram feeds, and our evening foot traffic increased by an estimated 35% within the first month of opening."
— Marcus Lin, Owner

Services Provided: Architectural Signage, Acrylic Lobby Signs, Window Graphics, Wayfinding

Apex Financial relocated to a new, three-story corporate headquarters. They needed a sophisticated, understated signage system that reflected their premium brand identity, alongside a comprehensive internal wayfinding system to help clients and staff navigate the multi-floor facility effortlessly.

We developed a sleek, modern architectural signage suite utilizing high-end materials:

• The Lobby: A premium, halo-lit brushed aluminum logo sign mounted on a standoff glass panel directly behind the reception desk.
• Wayfinding: Clean, modular directional signs and tactile/Braille room identifiers compliant with local accessibility standards.
• Privacy: Custom-etched frosted vinyl graphics applied to glass meeting room walls to provide privacy while maintaining an open, airy feel.

The project was delivered on time and within budget, ensuring Apex Financial was fully branded before their grand opening ribbon-cutting ceremony. The clean lines and professional finish seamlessly matched the building's high-end interior design.

Services Provided: Structural Pylon Signage, Electronic Message Centers (EMC), Tenant Panel Retrofitting

The Vanguard Shopping Plaza’s existing 30-foot pylon sign was severely outdated, suffered from storm damage, and relied on expensive, high-maintenance fluorescent tubes. The property management team needed a durable, modern solution that could withstand harsh weather while offering maximum visibility from the adjacent highway.

Just Signs & Lighting handled the project from structural engineering through to final electrical hook-up:

• Structural Retrofit: Reinforced the existing steel structure and replaced the damaged casing with weather-resistant, powder-coated aluminium.
• Eco-Friendly Lighting: Retrofitted all static tenant panels with high-efficiency, low-voltage LED illumination, reducing energy consumption.
• Digital Integration: Integrated a state-of-the-art, programmable Electronic Message Centre (EMC) at the base of the sign, allowing plaza management to update advertisements and community notices remotely.

• Visibility: Highway visibility increased by up to 1 mile, significantly boosting exposure for plaza tenants.
• Efficiency: The plaza reported a 40% reduction in signage energy costs compared to the old fluorescent system.
• Tenant Satisfaction: The modern look helped management secure leases for two long-vacant commercial units within 60 days of completion.
