Design Studio
Concept sketches, brand-matched typography, and photoreal 3D mockups on your actual storefront.
JLE Led Signs designs, builds and installs custom LED signs, illuminated storefront lettering and commercial display lighting for businesses across Chicago and the United States. From concept and 3D mockups to on-site installation — we handle the entire process.
JLE Led Signs is an American signage manufacturer and installer headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. We work with small and medium businesses, franchises, restaurants, retail stores, salons, gyms and offices — helping them turn a storefront into a landmark.
The company was founded by Bryan Yarbrough with a simple idea: a sign is not decoration — it is the first salesperson a customer ever meets. That idea still drives every project we take on. We combine in-house design, CNC fabrication, LED engineering and certified electrical installation under one roof, so our clients deal with one team instead of five vendors.
Our workshop handles everything from a single illuminated window sign to full multi-location storefront rollouts. Every unit is built with UL-listed LED modules and drivers, weather-rated housings, and finishes that hold up to Midwest winters and coastal humidity alike.
Concept sketches, brand-matched typography, and photoreal 3D mockups on your actual storefront.
CNC routing, bending, welding, painting and LED assembly — all performed at our Chicago facility.
Permitted electrical hookups, structural mounting, and site cleanup handled by our own crews.
5-year limited warranty on LED components, plus scheduled maintenance for multi-location clients.
Whether you need one hero sign for a new storefront or a coordinated rollout across multiple locations, we design, build and install it in-house.
Front-lit, back-lit and halo-lit channel letters in aluminum, acrylic and stainless finishes. Custom sizes, fonts and colors matched to your brand guide.
Illuminated and non-illuminated signage for retail, restaurants, salons and offices — including window graphics, blade signs and awning lettering.
Slim, edge-lit and cabinet light boxes for menus, directories, posters and retail displays. Even illumination with no hot spots or dark corners.
Modern LED neon flex for interior accent walls, bar signage, event displays and logos. Safer and longer-lasting than traditional glass neon.
Ground-mounted monument signs and tall pylon signs for shopping centers, dealerships, hotels and multi-tenant properties.
Diagnostics, LED retrofits, driver replacement and full refurbishment for signs that are dim, flickering or out of code.
No vague timelines and no surprise invoices. Every project moves through the same five stages, and you see exactly what is happening at each one.
We talk through your goals, brand, budget and location. For local clients we visit the site to measure, photograph and check electrical access.
You receive scaled drawings and a photoreal mockup of the sign on your actual storefront, along with a written quote and lead-time estimate.
If your city or landlord requires a sign permit, we prepare and submit the paperwork and coordinate with the local sign code office on your behalf.
Your sign is built in our Chicago shop: CNC cutting, welding, painting, LED assembly and a full electrical burn-in test before it ever leaves the building.
Our licensed crew installs, wires and tests the sign on site, cleans up, and walks you through warranty coverage and maintenance basics.
A sample of recent projects across retail, hospitality, fitness and professional services.
★★★★★"They handled everything — design, permit, install. Our storefront looks like a national brand now. Walk-in traffic is up noticeably."
★★★★★"The 3D mockup sold us before we ever paid a deposit. Zero guesswork, and the final sign matched the render exactly."
★★★★★"We use them for all four of our locations now. Same quality, same timeline, every single time. Rare in this industry."
Most standard channel-letter and storefront projects ship in 7 to 14 business days after design approval and deposit. Larger monument, pylon or multi-location orders typically run 3 to 6 weeks depending on permit timelines.
Yes. We prepare drawings and submit permit paperwork to the City of Chicago Department of Buildings and surrounding municipalities. Permit fees are paid directly to the city and are separate from your sign invoice.
Yes. We ship signage to all 48 contiguous states. Signs are crated and freight-shipped, with installation either performed by our traveling crew or by a vetted local installer we coordinate with.
All new signs carry a 5-year limited warranty on LED modules and drivers, and a 2-year warranty on finish and structural workmanship. Warranty terms are provided in writing with every quote.
Absolutely. A large part of our service work is LED retrofits and repairs on signs originally installed by other companies. We diagnose on site, quote the fix, and can usually complete the repair within one or two visits.
Send us your logo or design files, the approximate sign size, the install address, and a photo of the storefront or wall. That is usually enough for us to return a detailed quote within one business day.
Our workshop and office are located in Chicago, Illinois. Local clients are welcome to visit by appointment to review materials and finishes in person.
