Frequently asked questions

From delivery times to power consumption to what happens if your sign fails after a year. We are not holding anything back.

Levering

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.

Can I collect the sign myself?

You can, in Heusden-Zolder. Handy if you are in Limburg or Noord-Brabant: it saves a day and you get to see it lit before you drive off. Call ahead so we can have it ready.

Prijs

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.

Why is there no fixed price list?

Because every sign is different. We work from the real length of bent tube, the area of acrylic and the bending time. A fixed list means one customer overpays so another can underpay.

Can I order as a business and reclaim VAT?

You can order as a business and we will invoice your company name and VAT number. Note that we fall under the Belgian small business exemption, so no VAT is charged on the invoice. That means a lower total for you — but nothing to reclaim.

Ontwerp

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.

Can each word be a different colour?

Yes. In the design tool you click a word and pick its colour. There are twelve colours, plus RGB if you want to switch between them with a remote.

Techniek

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.

Can the sign go outdoors?

Yes, if you tell us at the time of ordering. You then get an outdoor build: sealed cable glands, an IP65 driver and UV-resistant cable. An indoor sign hung outside survives one wet winter and no more.

How do I mount it?

By default the acrylic has holes with stand-offs supplied: four screws, about five minutes. You can also hang it on steel cables, or choose a plate that mounts on glass with adhesive tape. Tell us where it is going and we send the right kit.

Can I dim it?

Yes. A dimmer sits on the cable as standard. Want to control it by remote or through an app? That is possible too — mention it when you order.

Garantie

What if something breaks?

You have two years of warranty on the neon and the driver. If something fails we repair it — we made it, so we know exactly what is inside. In practice the power supply gives up first, and we simply replace it.

How long does an LED neon sign last?

The LEDs are rated at roughly 50,000 burning hours. At eight hours a day that is about seventeen years. In practice the silicone discolours before the LEDs fail, and that takes years too.

Bestellen

Can I still change my order?

Up to the moment you approve the design you can change anything: text, colour, size. After that your sign is on the production schedule and a change means a new sign.

Can I return it?

A made-to-order sign falls outside the right of withdrawal — it was made for you and nobody else wants a sign with your name on it. That is exactly why you get a design first: at that point everything is still open.

If there is something wrong with what arrives, we sort it out.

How can I pay?

iDEAL, Bancontact, bank transfer, PayPal or card. On larger projects we often work with a deposit and the balance on delivery.

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.
