Illuminated projecting signs in Omagh

Getting illuminated projecting signs right comes down to accurate measuring, materials that suit the surface and a check of the rules before anything is ordered.

An illuminated projecting sign is a double-sided sign fixed at right angles to the building on a bracket, with LEDs inside or behind it, so people approaching along the pavement can read it.

Good reasons to look at illuminated projecting signs in Omagh

  • A lit roundel tells people an Omagh pub or restaurant is open on winter evenings, when fascias fall into shadow.
  • Chains across County Tyrone can use one lit roundel design, so an Omagh site is recognised from the street's end.
  • On a narrow Omagh street, people walking along the pavement often see a projecting sign before they can read any fascia.

Consent for illuminated signs in Omagh

Expect to apply if you want light. In Northern Ireland, express consent is usually required for exterior illuminated signs under the 2015 NI Regulations, and the council is likely to consider brightness, hours and appearance, particularly in conservation areas or on listed buildings. We prepare the scaled drawings, lighting details and photo mock-ups for an NI Planning Portal application, or submit it on your behalf. Keep illumination static and within the PLG05 guidance, and use a time switch or photocell to control the hours. The mains connection is made by an electrician to BS 7671.

Illuminated projecting signs in Omagh: questions

Can you reuse our existing bracket?

Sometimes. If the bracket is sound, well placed and strong enough, reusing it saves cost and avoids fresh holes. Rust at the wall plate, cracked masonry, missing fixings or no route for a cable usually mean a new bracket is safer.

Can I get a fixed price for illuminated projecting signs in Omagh before committing?

Yes. We start from the guide range, £695 to £2,250 per sign excluding VAT, then measure up or look at your photos and artwork. That gives a fixed written price reflecting the real size, materials, access and any design or consent work. You only commit once you accept that price and approve the proof.

Can you work to an opening date in Omagh?

Tell us the date when you enquire and we will say plainly whether it looks realistic. Timescales typically depend on how soon the proof is approved, how long production takes and whether consent is needed, which can take several weeks on its own. We plan around your date where we can, but we do not promise one we cannot control.

How long does it all take?

Making and fitting typically takes 3–5 weeks after you approve the proof. Allow for advertisement consent first, usually up to 8 weeks for a decision, plus any highway licence, which runs on the authority's own timetable. Applications can be prepared in parallel.

Do you work across County Tyrone or only in Omagh?

Across all of County Tyrone, and the rest of the UK too. Omagh is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Does the sign need its own supply?

It needs a supply, though not necessarily a new circuit. An electrician usually takes a switched, fused feed from inside the building close to the bracket, often sharing a time switch with your fascia lighting, and certifies the connection to BS 7671.
