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.
Where illuminated projecting signs can pay off in Stornoway
- Chains across the Highlands and Islands can use one lit roundel design, so a Stornoway site is recognised from the street's end.
- Corner premises in Stornoway can put a projecting sign on the side wall to catch people coming from the cross street.
- For a pharmacy or late-opening shop in Stornoway, a lit projecting sign helps people searching the street after dark.

Consent for illuminated signs in Stornoway
Illumination brings Scottish signs firmly into the consent process. Under the 1984 Scotland Regulations, internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs usually need express consent; the council decides, and listed buildings or conservation areas add an extra layer, with listed building consent usually required on a listed building. Keep the light static and the luminance within the PLG05 guidance the council is likely to reference. LED modules and drivers run at low voltage, while the final connection is made to BS 7671 by an electrician. We confirm the route before you commit and can handle the drawings or the eDevelopment.scot submission.
