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.
Where projecting and hanging signs can pay off in Newtownabbey
- With an older frontage, a Newtownabbey pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.
- Corner units in Newtownabbey gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
- If your Newtownabbey street is narrow and fascias are hard to read at an angle, a hanging sign catches shoppers walking towards your door.

Do you need permission for a sign in Newtownabbey?
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.
