Backlit glow for cut-out metal signs

Published June 23, 2026

Sign Customiser now lets you offer a backlit glow on cut-out metal sign customisers. Add a backlight option and your customers can switch the lighting on, pick a colour, and watch the preview update live — light blooming around the panel edge and through the inside of every cut-out shape, just like a real LED-backlit sign lit up against a wall.

The same glow follows any design. Whether your customer types their own text or uploads a logo through the AI Sign Designer, the shape is cut from the panel and lit around every edge.
