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 Newry
- A Newry restaurant with a handsome stone or brick front can skip a fascia panel and let fabricated letters sit directly on the masonry.
- Business park tenants in Newry who mount letters on a shared entrance canopy should check the landlord's signage rules first.
- For an office building on the edge of Newry with plain brick or cladding, brushed stainless letters read clearly from the car park.

Do you need permission for a sign in Newry?
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.
