Electronic Message Centers (EMC)
Also called: LED sign, electronic sign, reader board, scrolling sign, message board
Electronic Message Centers (EMCs) are versatile, outdoor digital displays that allow businesses to easily update and customize their signage without additional physical or labor costs. These durable, weather-resistant units offer automated, time-sensitive messaging, providing an efficient and cost-effective communication solution.
Most of the displays we sell are very high-resolution 6mm signs: sharp photos and small text, bright in full sun and dimmed automatically at night. And our software has no monthly fees.

How does the process of creating LED channel letters with Coastal Signs begin?
Every project kicks off with an initial consultation. During this phase, we discuss your specific needs, preferences, and the vision you have for your channel letters. Our team will also assess the proposed installation site to ensure that your project complies with all local zoning laws and requirements.
What happens after the initial consultation?
Once we have all the necessary information, our design team gets to work. We create a custom design tailored to your requirements and provide a detailed proposal that includes the project scope, design mock-ups, and a quote. This phase is collaborative, and we encourage your feedback to ensure the final product will meet your expectations.
How are channel letters manufactured?
After design approval and any necessary permits are secured, we move into the manufacturing phase. Your LED channel letters are built in our Slocomb facility using high-quality materials and the latest technology to ensure durability and performance.
What about installation?
Our experienced installation team takes over once manufacturing is complete. We coordinate with you to schedule the installation at a time that minimizes disruption to your business. Our team ensures a smooth and efficient installation process, adhering to all safety standards.
Is there any follow-up service after the installation?
Absolutely! Coastal Signs is committed to your satisfaction. After installation, we provide a comprehensive walkthrough of your new channel letters, including how to operate and maintain them. We also offer ongoing support and maintenance services to ensure your investment continues to perform at its best for years to come.
How long does the entire process take from consultation to completion?
The timeline can vary depending on the complexity of the project, permit acquisition, and other factors. However, we strive to complete most projects within a few weeks to a few months. We'll provide a more accurate timeline once the initial consultation and design phase are complete.
Is there a warranty on channel letters?
Yes. Our channel letters and sign cabinets come with a 5-year warranty.
What is the difference between front-lit and halo-lit letters?
Front-lit letters have faces that glow, the classic look, bright and easy to read from the road. Halo-lit (reverse channel) letters glow softly against the wall behind them. We can also combine the two, or build non-lit dimensional letters for a daytime look. Not sure which fits? Tell us what you're picturing and we'll help you choose.
