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 Lincoln
- When Lincoln pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for a Lincoln frontage.
- With an older frontage, a Lincoln pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.
What projecting and hanging signs cost in Lincoln
Below is the guide pricing we use for projecting and hanging signs: from £395 up to £1,350 per sign, before VAT. These are not fixed quotes. A written price follows once measurements are taken and your artwork has been checked.

Do you need permission for a sign in Lincoln?
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.
