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.
The case for projecting and hanging signs in Hinckley
- Upstairs businesses in Hinckley, such as salons, studios and accountants, can use a projecting sign at street level to mark a side door.
- When Hinckley pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
- If your Hinckley 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 Hinckley?
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.
