An LED sign retrofit provides an opportunity to modernize the internal lighting while continuing to use the existing sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a tall freestanding sign like this one, dependable illumination is particularly important. High-rise and pole signs are designed to capture attention from farther away, so outages or inconsistent lighting can significantly affect nighttime visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keeping an Iconic Sign Working<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Arby\u2019s distinctive hat-shaped sign has long been an instantly recognizable part of the restaurant\u2019s branding. By retrofitting the existing sign instead of replacing it, the project maintained that familiar appearance while updating how the sign is illuminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The before-and-after photos show the difference clearly, with the completed LED retrofit producing a strong red outline and illuminated lettering after sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">YESCO Sign &amp; Lighting Service in Helena, Montana<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">YESCO provides commercial sign repair, LED retrofits, sign maintenance, lighting service, pole and high-rise sign service, and illuminated sign repairs for businesses throughout Helena and surrounding Montana communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether a business has an aging neon sign, lighting outages, damaged sign components, or exterior signage that simply needs an update, YESCO can help maintain and modernize existing signage while keeping the brand customers already recognize.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YESCO recently completed a neon-to-LED retrofit for the high-rise Arby\u2019s sign in Helena, Montana, helping restore the restaurant\u2019s recognizable roadside identity with updated illumination.
