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.
Points in favour of illuminated projecting signs in Heywood
- Before you commit to a lit design in a historic part of Heywood, we check the council's approach to projecting signs.
- Chains across Greater Manchester can use one lit roundel design, so a Heywood site is recognised from the street's end.
- Where a Heywood street is busy with vans and buses, setting the sign high and back from the kerb matters.

Consent for illuminated signs in Heywood
Illuminated signs are treated more strictly than unlit ones in England. Deemed consent for illumination is limited, and it does not apply at all in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control, so most internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent from the council. Decisions usually take up to 8 weeks and consent is normally granted for 5 years. Councils commonly assess brightness against the Institution of Lighting Professionals' guidance PLG05, and lighting should be static. An electrician makes the final mains connection to BS 7671. We can prepare the drawings and photos for your application, or submit it for you.
