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 Radcliffe
- A Radcliffe restaurant with a handsome stone or brick front can skip a fascia panel and let fabricated letters sit directly on the masonry.
- For an office building on the edge of Radcliffe with plain brick or cladding, brushed stainless letters read clearly from the car park.
- Refurbishing a frontage in Radcliffe? Plan letter positions with the architect's drawings so fresh render isn't drilled twice.

Do you need permission for a sign in Radcliffe?
Advertisement consent in England comes from the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007. A sign is either excluded from control, has deemed consent, or needs express consent from the council's planning department. For a plain, unlit sign on your own premises, deemed consent usually applies when characters are 0.75 m tall or less (0.3 m in an area of special control) and the top edge is below the first-floor windows. Conservation areas need more care, and a listed building usually needs listed building consent as well; working without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the route before you commit, and can prepare the drawings for an application or submit it for you.
