Design project development
The production of any advertising structure begins with the calculation of its cost. Many customers think sending a schematic image of the installation, indicating its desired dimensions, is simple. In reality, everything is more complicated, especially for objects such as neon signs, the price of which varies depending on many factors. Accordingly, the layout for calculating the cost of a neon product should preferably be provided not in raster, but in vector files, such as SVG, CDR, EPS, or AI. PSD, PNG, JPEG, and GIF formats, which are more familiar to everyone, do not have a high enough resolution to obtain curved lines of the necessary clarity.
The total length of the tube, the number of parts, and their complexity
Neon signs are calculated on square meters (like standard composite or plastic letters), and linear.
A type of neon tube
It can be transparent, with a special coating called phosphor, or simply colored. Fluorescent neon advertising in off mode has white light, and the color remains bright at all times. A transparent tube can only have a red and blue glow (neon and argon, respectively).
Type and number of transformers
It is these elements that supply current to the electrodes of neon tubes. They are divided into two types: electronic (the size of which usually does not exceed 140 mm, and the weight is about 200 g) and electromagnetic (300 mm with a weight of up to 10 kg). It should be understood that the given characteristics are purely individual and depend on each specific model. The selection of transformers is a very important stage, as the service life and brightness of the installation depend on them. Everything is taken into account - the diameter and length of the tubes, the number of components, the gas used, and the place of operation (street or interior).
Installation principle
The installation can be fixed directly to the wall/ceiling or a previously prepared substrate (transparent or colored acrylic, glass, PVC, metal strip, etc.). The cost of installation depends on its conditions: installation location, surface material, height, where the transformer will be, and what it will be connected to (220 wire, socket, and where they are located). In addition, it matters when the installation is carried out: at night or during the day, on a weekday or a weekend. The number of conditional working hours is calculated from these factors.
Associated components
Necessary for installation and operation of lighting. It is necessary to understand that they make up to 20% of the cost of the product. This list includes:
- insulating elements (insulators, dropper);
- a special cable made of silicone that can withstand high voltage;
- network cable;
- holders;
- fastening;
- consumables (gases, rods, etc.)
Only after summarizing the total dimensions of the installation with other technical data, we can talk about the final price of the order. Our company always helps customers to save and conducts a transparent pricing policy. All interior neon lamps and facade compositions are covered by a warranty with subsequent maintenance.
To buy neon advertising you need:
- send a layout that meets the stated requirements or order its development;
- discuss the nuances of installation and delivery;
- approve the final cost of the order;
Neon lighting is a very bright, practical, durable, and relatively inexpensive form of advertising. The material of its manufacture is a bent pipe made of strong glass. It is filled with an inert gas (neon or argon) and sealed at both ends. An electric current of the required power is passed through the gas medium. As a result, the neon sign acquires a bright, shiny glow, which looks especially impressive at night.
Anything can be constructed from neon tubes - an inscription in a beautiful font, a brand emblem, a silhouette, or a figure. Design is limited only by budget. A more affordable alternative to tubes is neon tape, but it is most often used to decorate interiors rather than building facades. Another good option for indoor decoration is a neon lamp. It can be installed in the rest or waiting area, creating a relaxing atmosphere. Our company is engaged in the production of neon installations of any type, both interior and exterior. We will select the ideal option for the design of your business object and provide an accurate estimate of the work.
Our company has been producing neon signs for over 20 years, constantly modernizing its production. If you want to improve the image of your commercial facility or public institution, then a modern sign in the style of neon lights will be the optimal choice!
