What mounting, wall clearance, cable exit and service access should be shown on the approval drawing — Direct answer and decision checklist
The short answer: the approval drawing for an acrylic LED light box should show, before fabrication, four things — the mounting method and fixing points, the wall clearance behind the box, the cable exit location and route, and how the box is accessed for service. These are project-specific: they depend on the wall, the orientation and who installs the unit. PEXEO confirms them on the approved drawing. Do not drill or modify a finished light-guide panel without manufacturer approval.
What an acrylic LED light box is
An LED light box is a panel or shaped housing with internal LEDs and a diffuser face that throws even illumination across a graphic or letterform.
What to put on the approval drawing
Cover these points so fabrication and installation line up:
- Installation surface — wall type, material and flatness — and orientation.
- Mounting method and fixing points — brackets, standoffs or recessed fixings.
- Wall clearance behind the box for heat, cable and service access.
- Cable exit — location, gland type and route to the power supply.
- Service access — how the face or rear opens, and who is responsible for the on-site electrical connection.
- Environment — indoor or outdoor; this sets the protection level and is decided before production.

Confirmed PEXEO specifications
These facts are fixed and stated up front:
- Minimum order quantity is 1 unit.
- Standard production is approximately 10–12 days after the drawing is confirmed; the exact schedule is reconfirmed per order because it varies with quantity, finish and approved drawing.
- Letter or face height can be customised from 1 cm to 300 cm.
- Artwork is accepted in any format, or designed by the factory.
- PEXEO is a brand within NARVEND.
What to verify per project
Confirm these on the drawing or in the quotation rather than assuming:
- Packaging method for international shipping.
- Any electrical certification or protection rating required for your market.
For an outdoor build, the protection level is decided before production. State the environment in writing so the correct construction is used the first time.

Frequently asked questions
What must the approval drawing show for an acrylic light box?
Mounting method and fixing points, wall clearance behind the box, cable exit location and route, and service access. These are confirmed on the approved drawing before fabrication; PEXEO reviews your wall and orientation and specifies them.
Who is responsible for the electrical connection?
The on-site electrical connection and any local compliance are the installer's responsibility; confirm this on the drawing. PEXEO supplies the unit and the specified cable exit, but does not assume electrical certification — state the market and required standard in the enquiry.
Can I drill the panel for my own cable route?
No. Do not drill or modify a finished light-guide panel without manufacturer approval; the cable exit and service access are built into the approved drawing.
What is the minimum order and lead time for an acrylic light box?
The minimum order quantity is 1 unit. Standard production is approximately 10–12 days after the drawing is confirmed; the exact schedule is reconfirmed per order because it varies with quantity, finish and approved drawing.
