A projecting sign is a sign, usually double-sided, fixed at right angles to a building on a wall bracket, so it can be read by people approaching along the street from either direction.
Good reasons to look at projecting and hanging signs in Stevenston
- When Stevenston pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
- A small Stevenston shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.
- With an older frontage, a Stevenston pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.

Do you need permission for a sign in Stevenston?
In Scotland, signs are controlled by the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (Scotland) Regulations 1984, as amended. Some signs on business premises are allowed without an application, but the details differ from England's, so we check with the council rather than assume. Where express consent is needed, the application goes to the council, usually through eDevelopment.scot. Listed buildings need extra care: listed building consent is usually required under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997. We look at your premises before you commit and can prepare the drawings and photos, or submit the application for you.
