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 Selby

  • Corner units in Selby gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
  • Visitors browsing Selby on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
  • A small Selby shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.

What projecting and hanging signs cost in Selby

Use these figures to budget: £395 to £1,350 per sign is the guide range, with VAT added on top. Each line in the table is indicative only, and your exact price is confirmed after a survey or once we have looked over the artwork.

Do you need permission for a sign in Selby?

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.

Covering Selby and North Yorkshire

Wherever you are in North Yorkshire, Selby included, the service is identical. We arrange a survey when the sign is fixed to a building or needs power, and we work from photographs, drawings or the make and model of the vehicle when that is enough to price graphics accurately.

Projecting and hanging signs in Selby: questions

Will the location in Selby affect the cost of projecting and hanging signs?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £395–£1,350 per sign + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Selby are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

When could work on projecting and hanging signs go ahead in Selby?

Fitting is typically scheduled once three things are in place: you have approved the proof, the materials are made or delivered, and any consent the job needs has been granted. For many jobs that is typically a few weeks from approval; illuminated or larger fabricated signs typically take longer, and consent decisions run to their own timetable.

Is Selby inside your coverage area for projecting and hanging signs?

It is. We work throughout the UK rather than in a single region, so Selby and every part of North Yorkshire are included. Where a survey is needed we arrange a visit; for graphics jobs we can often quote from photos and measurements. Either way, you get a proof and a written price first.

What shape works for a small shop?

Simple shapes read quickest: an oval, circle or rectangle with the name and one symbol. Signs cut to an object, such as scissors or a coffee cup, work well when the trade is obvious from the shape. Keep text short, because people read it while walking past.

Can a projecting sign be illuminated?

Yes, but it becomes a different product with its own consent position. Lit projecting signs use LED modules inside a box or behind halo letters, connected by an electrician, and most need express consent. A small spotlight lighting a painted sign is an alternative, still checked with the council.

Who is responsible if a projecting sign falls?

The building owner or occupier is usually responsible for keeping a sign over the highway safe, which is why regular checks matter. Ask your own insurer to confirm your cover includes signs over the footway. A correctly sized bracket in sound masonry, checked after storms, reduces the risk.
