3. Drill
Next, drill the pilot holes with your drill. Then, carefully use a screwdriver to drill the screws into the holes in the barrel of every standoff, ensuring all are flush with the wall.
4. Secure
Install the custom-designed neon lights in the space. Attach the sign hardware to the front of the LED neon sign by tightening the inner screws with your fingers. Pay attention to the amount of pressure needed to secure the sign to the wall.

Connect the power cord to a grounded wall outlet. Attach the cord to the neon sign transformer, and ensure that the LED tubing for the sign is lit up.
