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.
Why choose illuminated projecting signs for a business in Galashiels?
- Before you commit to a lit design in a historic part of Galashiels, we check the council's approach to projecting signs.
- On a narrow Galashiels street, people walking along the pavement often see a projecting sign before they can read any fascia.
- For a pharmacy or late-opening shop in Galashiels, a lit projecting sign helps people searching the street after dark.

Consent for illuminated signs in Galashiels
A lit sign is the clearest case for applying first. Scotland's 1984 Advertisement Regulations treat illuminated signs differently from unlit ones, and express consent is usually needed for halo-lit letters, lightboxes and lit projecting signs. We check with the council before you commit to illuminated projecting signs, then put together scaled drawings, photo mock-ups and lighting details, which you can submit via eDevelopment.scot or we can submit for you. Expect the council to look at brightness (PLG05 is the usual reference) and to prefer steady light, perhaps on a time switch. The mains connection is completed by an electrician to BS 7671.
