CRAFTING / MANUFATCURING

Our Custom Neon signs are handmade to your approved design using Neon LED flex on an acrylic sheet backing. The materials used are PVC and acrylic. Our outdoor signage range is made using high quality LED lights in fully enclosed acrylic, and in our neon signs there is no fragile glass that can break, no neon gas, and no mercury.

Westninth Vintage manufactures signs in multiple countries including USA, Canada and UK. Where your sign will be made depends on your location and the specifications and requirements of your sign.

Our signs come with an acrylic backboard. You can choose from a variety of options when it comes to this backboard (sometimes the design will determine what backboard is required). The backboard can be cut around the shape so it is contoured and nearly invisible or it can be cut in a desired shape. The backboard color can be clear, black or white.

We design and make a wide variety of illuminated signage, including:

Business Logos

Storefront Signage

Open Signs

Outdoor Signs

Wall Art & Interior Decor

Wedding Signs

Party Signs

Personalized Name Signs

ABOUT CUSTOM Westninth Vintage PRODUCT

Most of Westninth Vintage's range of signs, lights, lamps, and wall art plug into a power socket. We do offer battery pack options for small signs, lights and lamps. Please contact us to find out if your custom design is suitable for a battery pack.

Most ManhattanNeon products come with a 2m long cord that comes with AC adapter. A free remote & dimmer will automatically be added to your order at checkout.

Hanging your new neon light sign is surprisingly easy.  Custom Neon signs weigh 6-11lb on average and include pre-drilled holes on the acrylic backboard.  Custom Neon signs are safe to transport and easy to install.

For wall mounting your new neon light you’ll need one of our Wall Mounting kits which must be purchased at the time of ordering your sign as they require a specific hole size. To hang the sign you'll need one of our Sign Hanging kits or you can also do it yourself with hardware store items.

Our LED Neon is available in 6mm thickness, and the minimum letter height is approximately 3-4 inches for simple/non-cursive fonts and 4-5 inches for cursive fonts.

If your custom order is for a sign larger than 7ft by 3ft it will be made on two or more backboards that can be easily arranged together.

Doing this keeps the signs safer during shipping.

By default, Custom Neon signs are mounted on a clear, acrylic backboard. We offer two standard backing options at no extra cost.

We also offer acut-to-letter acrylic backboard option, as well asacrylic standsand open boxes. The cost for these options is shownon the tool.

Our remote & dimmer offers a range of brightness settings, ON & OFF option, and Party Modes which makes the light sign flash, flicker and pulse. They also allow you to dim the brightness of your sign, which can help with exposure when taking photos in front of your LED neon sign or when using it as a feature for a photo shoot.

Because Custom Neon light signs are handmade there are sometimes small marks on the acrylic where the PVC tube holding flexible LED the has been attached to the acrylic. In the rare instance that the marks are evident they are always minor and not visible when the sign is turned on.

LED Neon Flex vs Glass Neon FAQ

The main differences between glass neon signs and LED neon signs are:

Affordability: LED neon signs are cheaper than glass neon signs and easier to replace light tubes. Glass neon signs are pricier to purchase and costly to repair.

Durability: LED neon flex is made of high quality, flame retardant PVCs and is flexible. Traditional neon signs are made of fragile, breakable glass that shatters easily.

Energy Efficiency: LED neon signs have a low power usage with an input voltage of 24V/120V whereas the traditional glass version uses an input voltage of 3KV-18KV.

Safety / Suitability for Home Decor: The lower voltage means LED flex signs remain cool to the touch and there’s no glass to break. Glass neon signs are not usually considered suitable for homes with children due to the safety risks from breakages, mercury and neon gas.

Ease of Installation: LED neon signs generally do not require a specialist installation team. Unless they're very large or you need them to be installed in a specific manner, they can be hung or wall mounted as you would any other piece of wall art. The weight, fragility, and power requirements of traditional glass tube neon signs usually require specialist installation.

Easy to Maintain: Neon look LED signs are practically maintenance free. Depending on the placement and climate, traditional glass neon light signs will require maintenance which must be carried out by a trained professional.

Lightweight & Portable: LED flex is considerably lighter than glass neon tubes making LED signs lightweight enough to use just about anywhere including bedroom décor, portable party lights, for events, and much more.

Noise: LED neon signs are very quiet and produce virtually no buzzing sound. Glass neon signs, on the other hand, are famous for "the buzz".

Interference: LED flex signs will not cause interference with your TV, Wifi, etc... Glass neon signs can cause interference with infrared remote controls.

Brightness: 210 Lm/m makes LED flex neon brighter than traditional glass neon which produces a warmer light at 197 Lm/m.

Lifespan: LED neon flex signs will keep shining for approximately 100,000 hours of use. Glass neon signs offer approximately 10,000 hours of use.

Nostalgic Appeal: The vintage neon look can be recreated using LED flex but it won’t be exactly the same.

We’ve highlighted the differences we are most frequently asked about in our Glass Neon vs LED Neon Signs infographic page.

LED neon flex signs can be up to 10x more energy efficient than the same sign made from glass neon tubes. LED neon flex has a low power usage with an input voltage of 24V/120V. Compared to a typical glass neon sign's input voltage of 3KV-18KV, LED neon signs have lower electricity costs and greater safety. When used correctly, LED neon flex signs have a lifespan that can be up to 5x longer than glass neon signs which means less wastage. Finally, LED neon signs do not contain neon gas, mercury or any other harmful chemicals that can make recycling difficult. As an added bonus, we can now offer wooden backboards.
