A lightbox sign is a shallow enclosed box with a translucent face and LED lighting inside, so the whole panel, or just lettering routed into it, glows evenly at night.
Reasons to choose lightbox signs in Bury
- Businesses with several sites across Greater Manchester can share one set of artwork, so the Bury branch matches the rest.
- Where a Bury shop has a long fascia, a flex-faced box spans it without the joins rigid acrylic sheets need.
- When an old fluorescent box above a Bury shop flickers, an LED conversion can cost far less than a new sign.
What lightbox signs cost in Bury
The figures in this table are guide prices, from £1,250 to £4,800 per lightbox, and they exclude VAT. They are there to help you plan. A firm price follows the survey or artwork check and is agreed before any work starts.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Lightbox up to 3 m, printed face | £1,250 – £2,650 | £1,500 – £3,180 |
| Lightbox 3–5 m, routed and push-through letters | £2,450 – £4,800 | £2,940 – £5,760 |
| Replacement face for an existing lightbox | £295 – £950 | £354 – £1,140 |
Length and face type drive most of the price; shaped or double-sided boxes, old-cabinet removal, fascia repairs, access equipment and consent drawings add to it.

Consent for illuminated signs in Bury
Plan for express consent. In England most internally illuminated and halo-lit signs on a fascia or projecting bracket need it, and deemed consent does not cover illuminated signs in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control. The council usually decides within 8 weeks, and consent normally lasts 5 years. Expect questions about brightness: many councils refer to ILP guidance PLG05, which sets maximum luminance by zone, and they expect steady light rather than flashing. We prepare scaled drawings and photo mock-ups for the application, or submit it for you, and an electrician completes the connection to BS 7671 and gives you the certificate.
