Neon for shops, offices and shopfronts
A name in light does something a sticker on your window cannot: it keeps working after dark, when you are closed.
Indoor or outdoor — that changes everything
This is the first question we ask, and not out of politeness. An indoor sign hung outside survives one wet winter and then gives up. The difference is in three things: the cable gland, the power supply and the cable itself.
For outdoor use we build with sealed glands, an IP65 power supply that belongs in a cabinet, and UV-resistant cable. That costs roughly 15 to 25 per cent more and buys you years.
Are you allowed to put it on your facade?
In the Netherlands an illuminated sign on a facade usually needs an omgevingsvergunning voor reclame — a planning permit for advertising — from your council. The rules differ per council and sometimes per street; in a protected townscape far less is possible than on an industrial estate.
What holds almost everywhere: there are limits on how far a sign may stick out, how bright it may be and whether it may flash. Ring your council before you order; it takes ten minutes and it prevents a sign that is not allowed to hang. If you want, we supply a dimensioned drawing for your application.
If the sign hangs behind your shop window it usually counts as indoor advertising and the rules are a good deal easier.
Ordering as a business
At checkout you fill in your company name, address and VAT number and you get an invoice in that name. We fall under the Belgian small business exemption: there is no VAT on the invoice. So you pay less, but there is also nothing to reclaim.
Several locations
For chains and franchises we work from a fixed design: draw it out properly once, then every location identical. That way the sign in Groningen is the same as the one in Maastricht, and that is exactly what a house style is for.
From idea to light in three steps
No quoting process that drags on for weeks. You send us what you have in mind, we draw it up, and the moment you say yes the tube goes on the bending table.

What we made for brands
A neon sign for On that had to hold up on camera
A sign that had to work not just on a wall but in front of a lens. That puts very different demands on the LEDs than an ordinary commission.

Brand colour in neon for Flying Fish
With a beer brand the challenge is not the shape but the colour: a brand colour on paper is a very different thing from that same colour as light.

Neon built to survive a festival weekend
At a festival a neon sign is not decoration but equipment: it has to handle weather, transport, and thousands of people leaning on it for a photo.

Related questions
How quickly will my sign arrive in the Netherlands?
Three working days after you approve the design. We build your sign in our workshop in Heusden-Zolder and ship from there to your Dutch address. So yes, the parcel crosses a border — that is already counted in those three days.
Order on a Friday afternoon and approve on Monday morning and Thursday is your day. Sundays do not count.
What does shipping to the Netherlands cost?
Nothing. Shipping to any Dutch address is included. The Wadden Islands too, although those sometimes take a day longer.
What does a custom neon sign cost?
Most signs for the home land between € 180 and € 450. For a shopfront or a bar, expect € 400 to € 1,200 depending on width and letter count.
Price follows the metres of bent tube, not the number of characters. A short name in a heavy typeface costs more than a long sentence in a thin script. The design tool shows it live.
I only have my logo as a JPG. Is that a problem?
Send it over. We redraw your logo as a bendable path ourselves, and that is included in the price. A sharp JPG or PNG is enough; an SVG, AI or EPS just makes it faster.
What we cannot do is turn a photo with fifty gradients into neon. Neon is a line of light, not a print. The design mock-up shows you exactly what survives.
Do I see the design before you start?
Always. You get a to-scale design with dimensions. Nothing goes on the bending table until you say yes. That mock-up is free, even if you decide not to order.
How much power does a sign use?
Far less than people expect. A 60 cm sign draws roughly 12 to 20 watts — about the same as a compact fluorescent. Run it eight hours a day and at € 0.35 per kWh that is around € 20 a year.
They already have one on the wall
One workshop, two sites
neonledsigns.nl is the Dutch site of neonled.be
Not a partnership, not a reseller, not a second company: it is the same business. The same workshop in Heusden-Zolder, the same bending table, the same people on the phone and the same signs.
We keep two sites because a Dutch customer asks different questions than a Belgian one — about iDEAL, about shipping across the border, about permits from their own council. Those answers belong where you go looking for them.
