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.
Reasons to choose projecting and hanging signs in Antrim
- With an older frontage, an Antrim pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.
- Visitors browsing Antrim on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
- When Antrim pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
What projecting and hanging signs cost in Antrim
Guide prices for projecting and hanging signs run from £395 to £1,350 per sign, excluding VAT. The table below breaks that down; your actual price is fixed in writing once we have surveyed the site or checked the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Double-sided panel sign with standard bracket | £395 – £850 | £474 – £1,020 |
| Shaped or painted sign with decorative bracket | £650 – £1,350 | £780 – £1,620 |
Size and shape come first, then the bracket: a scroll bracket costs more than flat bar, and larger signs need stronger brackets and wall plates. Painted finishes, access height, the wall type and any drawings for a highway licence or advertisement consent also affect the figure.

Do you need permission for a sign in Antrim?
Signs in Northern Ireland are covered by the 2015 Control of Advertisements Regulations (NI), not the English or Scottish versions. Whether an unlit sign needs an application depends on its size, where it sits on the building and whether the building is listed or in a conservation area. Where consent is needed, the council handles it, with applications made online via the NI Planning Portal. For listed buildings, listed building consent usually applies too, and fixings into mortar joints are generally preferred. We check what applies to your premises before anything is ordered, and we can prepare or submit the application for you.
