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 Downpatrick
- A small Downpatrick shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.
- When Downpatrick pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
- With an older frontage, a Downpatrick pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.

Do you need permission for a sign in Downpatrick?
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.
