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.
What built-up 3D letters can do for businesses in Strabane
- A Strabane 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 Strabane can use painted aluminium letters on profiled cladding for a durable name above the roller door.
- For an office building on the edge of Strabane with plain brick or cladding, brushed stainless letters read clearly from the car park.

Do you need permission for a sign in Strabane?
Before any exterior sign goes up in Northern Ireland, it is worth checking the 2015 NI Advertisement Regulations. Some straightforward signs on business premises fall within what is allowed without applying, but the conditions are Northern Ireland's own and conservation areas need more care. Listed buildings usually need listed building consent as well, and works without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the position with you before you commit to built-up 3D letters, and we can prepare the drawings and photographs for an NI Planning Portal application or submit it for you.
