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.
What projecting and hanging signs can do for businesses in Maldon
- Upstairs businesses in Maldon, such as salons, studios and accountants, can use a projecting sign at street level to mark a side door.
- Corner units in Maldon gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
- Visitors browsing Maldon on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.

Do you need permission for a sign in Maldon?
Will you need permission? For a non-illuminated sign at your own business address in England, usually not, as long as it stays inside the deemed consent limits: letters no taller than 0.75 m (0.3 m in an area of special control) and nothing above the bottom of a first-floor window. Historic streets need more care. In a conservation area the details matter more, and fixing to a listed building usually needs listed building consent, with fixings into mortar joints rather than brick or stone faces generally preferred. We check with you before anything is ordered, and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
