How the quote works
Most sign makers quote blind and take a deposit up front. We do the opposite: you see your custom neon sign or channel letters rendered to scale, with exact dimensions and a firm price, before you commit to anything.
Text, a sketch, a photo of the wall, or your logo file. Whatever you have is enough to start.
Within 30 minutes to 3 hours on business days: a rendering with exact dimensions, colors and a firm price. No deposit, no obligation.
Nothing is produced until you say yes. Most custom LED neon signs arrive 18 to 25 days after approval on free shipping, or 7 to 12 days on express.
What we can quote
If you're not sure which construction your project needs, just describe the space, we'll tell you which one we'd build and why.

Quote questions
How fast do you reply to custom sign inquiries?
We typically reply to online inquiries within 30 minutes to 3 hours on business days. For anything urgent, an event date or a store opening, call +1 (213) 328-2667 and we'll handle it directly.
Can I just order online instead of waiting for a quote?
Yes, and for most signs it is faster. The online designer prices any wording or uploaded logo instantly, and a quote for the same sign comes back at the same price. Use this form when the job is a storefront channel letter sign, hand-blown real glass, oversized, outdoor, or a bulk order, because those are priced per project.
Is the design mockup free? Do I have to order?
It's free, and no. There's no deposit and no obligation. You get a rendering with exact dimensions, colors and a firm price, and you decide afterwards. If you do order, we still send a design proof for approval before anything is produced.
Do you charge a design fee, and are revisions extra?
No design fee, and revisions are unlimited and free. We keep redrawing until you approve it. Nothing goes into production before your approval, so there is no version of this where you pay for a drawing you don't like.
What do I need to send to get a custom sign quote?
Whatever you have. The text for the sign, a sketch on a napkin, a photo of the wall, or your logo file. If you're not sure about size, colors or which construction fits, describe the space and we'll advise. The more you send, the more exact the first mockup, and the fewer rounds it takes.
Which file formats can I upload?
AI, PDF, SVG, EPS, CDR, PSD, PNG, JPG, WEBP, GIF and TIF or TIFF, up to 20 MB per file. A phone photo of a sketch is fine too. Vector files (AI, PDF, SVG, EPS) give the cleanest result because the letters can be scaled without softening the edges.
What if my logo is too detailed to bend into neon?
We'll tell you before you pay, and show you both versions. LED neon flex is a continuous tube, so hairlines, gradients and very tight interior corners have to be simplified. We redraw the logo as a bendable path, send the original and the neon version side by side, and you decide whether the simplification is acceptable.
How much does a custom neon sign or channel letter sign cost?
Custom LED neon signs start at $239.99, battery operated neon signs at $169.99, motion and 360-degree circular signs at $169.99, and LED neon shaped channel letters at $334.99. Channel letters and hand-blown real glass neon are quoted per project. You get a firm figure, not a range.
Why does hand-blown real glass neon cost more than LED?
Real glass runs about twice the price of the same sign in LED neon. Each tube is bent by hand over a flame by one person, filled with gas and electrode-sealed, and it cannot be batched. LED neon flex is formed tube, so the same shape takes a fraction of the labour. Both are made in our own factory.
How big can a sign be, and how small?
The practical minimum is a 5 cm letter height, because the tube itself is 6, 8 or 10 mm thick and anything smaller stops reading as letters. There is no fixed maximum: large pieces are built in sections that bolt together on site, and we tell you the split lines on the drawing before you approve it.
What happens after I send this form?
A designer reads it and replies in 30 minutes to 3 hours on business days. You get a rendering of your sign, exact dimensions, the construction we recommend, a firm price and a real delivery date. There is no deposit at that point and no obligation. If you go ahead, you still approve a final design proof before anything is produced.
I don't know what size I need. Can you work it out for me?
Yes, and it is the most common thing we help with. Describe the space, or give us the width of the wall, window or backdrop it has to sit on, and we recommend a size. The mockup comes back with exact dimensions, so you are approving a measured drawing rather than a guess. The only hard limit is a 5 cm minimum letter height.
Can I see signs you have built for businesses like mine?
Yes. Every product page carries a review wall with photos taken by the customers themselves in their own bars, salons, studios and storefronts, so what you are looking at is real installed work rather than renderings.
I have several locations. Can you quote them all together?
Yes, and multi-location and franchise pricing is available. Say how many sites you are planning in the form and we quote them as one project. Everything is made in our own factory rather than bought in from a third party, which is what keeps the build consistent across the set.
What backboard shapes and finishes can I choose?
Five cut styles, from a plain rectangle through to a cut-to-letter outline that makes the acrylic disappear, and 12 stock finishes including clear, frosted, black and mirrored. Any other color can be matched on request. None of the shapes or finishes changes the price.
How long does production take after I approve the design?
A custom LED neon sign is made and delivered in 18 to 25 days on free shipping, or 7 to 12 days on express. Both clocks start when you approve the design proof, not when you place the order. Channel letters and hand-blown glass neon take longer depending on size, and we give you a real date with the quote.
Can you quote a storefront sign that needs a permit?
Yes. Send your logo and a storefront photo, and we'll return a shop drawing with letter heights, depths and mounting method plus a written quote, built with UL listed power supplies and components. Tell us the city or landlord requirements and we'll spec around them. Franchise and multi-location pricing is available.
What does shipping cost, and where do you ship?
Shipping is free within the US, door to door and fully insured. Signs are double-boxed with foam inserts cut to the shape of the piece. Express production is the paid upgrade; the shipping itself is included either way.
How long will it last, and what if it stops working?
The LED neon flex is rated for 50,000 hours, which is over 13 years at 10 hours a day. The warranty is two years of free repair by the people who built the sign. The usual failure point is the power supply or the dimmer rather than the tube, and both can be replaced on their own without touching the sign.
I already ordered. How do I send a change?
Email service@aoos.com with your order number in the subject line and it routes straight to production. If the sign has not been built yet we can still change wording, color, size or mounting. Once it is in production we will tell you honestly what is still possible.
