Is a 4x5 LED sign the right size?

Built for storefronts, monument signs and slower roads.

A 4x5 measures 4.2 ft tall by 5.3 ft wide — 22.1 sq ft of display per side, from a 4 × 5 grid of 12.6″ modules. It carries about 3 lines of comfortable text at roughly 11-inch character height.

At that character height the message reads clearly from about 330 feet, using the rule of roughly 30 feet of readable distance per inch of character. Measure from the road to where the sign will stand, and check that number against your speed limit before you commit to a size.

Common buyers at this size: restaurants, churches, contractors and small retail. Compare it against the nearby sizes below — a foot in either direction moves the price more than most people expect.

Which resolution for a 4x5 LED sign

Pick by how far away the driver is, not by budget.

All three series come in this footprint, at the same physical size. Choose the pitch that matches your setback, not the cheapest one — the price above updates as you switch. Full explanation in the buyer's guide →

Getting a 4x5 LED sign up

Ship it to you, or we handle the whole thing.

A 4x5 LED sign at 200 lbs per side is within reach of most local sign crews, which is why ship-direct is the cheaper route for this size.

Lowest cost
DIY / ship-direct
Freighted to your address with L brackets, spares and engineered drawings in the crate. Add a retrofit bracket kit or a full pole kit above. Production and shipping run 6–8 weeks.

Hands off
Professional turnkey install
Site survey, permit package, foundation, crane, electrical coordination and commissioning on one invoice. 6–12 weeks including permitting; production starts once the permit clears.
Price a 4x5 LED sign — turnkey →
Not included on either route: permit fees, the electrical run and any service upgrade, and drawings stamped by a licensed engineer if your city requires them ($350). A 4x5 LED sign single-sided draws 17 A at 110V — have your electrician confirm the circuit before install day.
Will people be able to read it?

How many lines you use decides how far it reads.

Character height sets readable distance — about 30 feet per inch. Pick how much you want on screen and how fast traffic moves past your site.

{{ calcVerdict }}
Rules of thumb used here: 30 ft of readable distance per inch of character height, 7 pixels minimum to form a clean character, and about 2.5 seconds of legible time for a driver to take the message in. A tighter pixel pitch does not change how far a given character reads — it lowers the smallest character the screen can draw, which is what lets it carry more lines and more characters.

Counts are for a 4x5 LED sign and are printed on the packing list. A spare power supply and control card ship with every sign.
Step 01 · Join the sections
Align the 2 sections so the clear hole meets the threaded hole, then fasten with 8 M8 bolts using a 13/14 mm wrench. Open tunnels only ever connect to open tunnels.
Step 02 · X brackets
Place 3 X brackets where four cabinets meet and secure with 24 M10 bolts. These keep the cabinets square.
Step 03 · Mounting brackets
Fit 12 L brackets to the pre-drilled holes on the rear frame with 24 M10 bolts, then attach to your wall, pole or monument structure.
Electrical
2 × 20 A circuits
Each of the 2 sections takes its own dedicated 20 A circuit per face — 4 for a double-sided build. Total draw is about 17 A at 110V, or 9 A at 220V, per face.
Wiring order
Brightness sensor to the 4-pin port, antenna to the 9-pin PoE port, power to the 3-pin input, then daisy-chain video out to each additional section.
Structural load
200 lbs
Per face, at 10 lbs per square foot. Have your engineer confirm the existing structure before a retrofit.

Interactive assembly planner

See exactly how a 4x5 goes together.

Nothing over 4 ft ships as one piece, so a 4x5 arrives as one 4×3 ft plus one 4×2 ft sections. The planner walks the installer through it step by step — every M8 bolt at the seams, the X and L brackets, the power ports and the signal chain — and sizes the single 20 A run at 120 V or 240 V.
