Built-up letters are three-dimensional letters fabricated, usually from metal sheet, with a face and returns joined into a hollow letter typically 50–100 mm deep, then fixed to a wall or sign on locators.
Reasons to choose built-up 3D letters in Antrim
- An Antrim restaurant with a handsome stone or brick front can skip a fascia panel and let fabricated letters sit directly on the masonry.
- Gyms, studios and trade units in Antrim can use painted aluminium letters on profiled cladding for a durable name above the roller door.
- Business park tenants in Antrim who mount letters on a shared entrance canopy should check the landlord's signage rules first.
What built-up 3D letters cost in Antrim
The figures in this table are guide prices, from £55 to £165 per letter, and they exclude VAT. They are there to help you plan. A firm price follows the survey or artwork check and is agreed before any work starts.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Fabricated letter, 300 mm tall | £55 – £165 | £66 – £198 |
| Typical business name (10–14 letters) | £850 – £2,600 | £1,020 – £3,120 |
| Logo or symbol, made to the same depth | £150 – £650 | £180 – £780 |
The metal drives cost first: painted aluminium sits at the lower end, mirror stainless and brass finishes at the top. Letter height, return depth, letter count, stand-off locators, access height and the wall surface follow. Every price is confirmed after survey and an artwork check.

Do you need permission for a sign in Antrim?
Northern Ireland has its own rules: the Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015. As elsewhere in the UK, some signs on business premises can be displayed without an application while others need consent, but the limits are specific to Northern Ireland, so we check with the council rather than rely on English figures. Applications go to the council through the NI Planning Portal. A sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent under the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011. We look at your premises before you commit and can prepare drawings and photos, or submit the application for you.
Covering Antrim and County Antrim
Our coverage takes in Antrim, the rest of County Antrim and the rest of the UK. Fitted signs usually start with a site visit so the wall can be measured, the fixings checked and access planned. Window and vehicle graphics can often be priced from your own pictures instead. Roughly 14 miles separate Antrim from Belfast, which lies to the south-east.
