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 you gain from projecting and hanging signs in Purley
- A small Purley shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.
- If your Purley street is narrow and fascias are hard to read at an angle, a hanging sign catches shoppers walking towards your door.
- With an older frontage, a Purley pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.

Do you need permission for a sign in Purley?
In England, a non-illuminated sign on your own business premises usually falls under deemed consent, which means no application is needed provided the sign stays within set limits. The lettering and symbols should be no more than 0.75 m tall (0.3 m in an area of special control), and the top of the sign should sit no higher than the bottom of any first-floor window. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care: a sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent. We check the position for your premises before you commit, and we can prepare the drawings and photos for an application or submit it for you.
