How to Install an Open Sign | HDJ Custom Neon Signs
Open signs are a great addition to any store, gym, office, or other space, helping to attract customers and ensure they know your business is open and available. Installing an open sign may seem like a daunting task, but with the right guidance, you can have your HDJ Custom Neon Sign glowing in no time. Here is a step-by-step guide to make the process simple and efficient.
Step 1: Pick the Right Location
The first step is to choose the perfect location for your sign. Look for a prominent area, preferably near an entrance or large window. The goal is to ensure that your sign is easily visible to passersby from the street or sidewalk. Also, be careful to avoid having shelves, curtains, or other decorative elements obscuring its glow.
Step 2: Gather the Right Tools
Before installing, check that you have the necessary tools and materials. HDJ Custom Neon Signs come with a mounting kit that includes screws, brackets, and hanging accessories. This allows it to be easily hung anywhere, even outdoors, without affecting its use.
Step 3: Install the Mounting Hardware
All HDJ Custom Neon signs have four small circular holes on the back that allow them to be hung anywhere. You can use a tape measure to mark the exact location where you want to mount the sign. This step is essential to ensure that the sign hangs vertically and securely. If possible, you can also use a level to double-check that the marks are even. You can then drill holes in the wall or surface and secure the mounting brackets using the provided screws.
If you are mounting the sign on glass, this will be even easier, and we have suction cups or adhesive hooks designed specifically for glass surfaces. These are usually included with HDJ Custom Neon products.
Step 4: Install the Open Sign
Once the mounting hardware is in place, you can carefully mount the HDJ Custom Neon Open Sign to the bracket; most of our models are lightweight, so this step is quick and easy; you can shake the sign by hand to ensure it is firmly fixed to prevent it from moving or falling.
Step 5: Connect Power
All HDJ Custom Neon Open Signs come with a pre-installed power cord and adapter. Plug the power cord into the nearest outlet, making sure the power cord is neatly tucked away to prevent tripping. If your sign includes a switch or remote, test it to make sure it’s working properly. All of our products come with a free adapter and remote, so there’s no extra cost.
Step 6: Test Visibility
Once installed, you can go outside and assess the sign’s visibility from different angles. If necessary, you can adjust the position to maximize its impact. For best results, turn on the sign at different times of the day to ensure it shines brightly during both day and night.
Maintenance Tips
To keep your HDJ Custom Neon business sign in top condition, clean it regularly with a soft cloth to remove any dust or stains; be careful to avoid using harsh chemicals that can damage the neon tube. Check the mounting hardware and power supply regularly to ensure it stays lit for the long term; all of our LED neon products are rated to last for more than 10 years with normal use.
Conclusion
Installing an HDJ Custom Neon business sign is a very simple process that can greatly increase the visibility and appeal of your business. By following these steps, you can ensure that your custom business sign is securely installed and ready to shine brightly, attracting customers and making a great first impression.
