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.
Why choose projecting and hanging signs for a business in Stanley?
- Visitors browsing Stanley on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
- Corner units in Stanley gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
- When Stanley pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.

Do you need permission for a sign in Stanley?
Advertisement consent in England comes from the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007. A sign is either excluded from control, has deemed consent, or needs express consent from the council's planning department. For a plain, unlit sign on your own premises, deemed consent usually applies when characters are 0.75 m tall or less (0.3 m in an area of special control) and the top edge is below the first-floor windows. Conservation areas need more care, and a listed building usually needs listed building consent as well; working without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the route before you commit, and can prepare the drawings for an application or submit it for you.
