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 Daventry
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for a Daventry frontage.
- If your Daventry street is narrow and fascias are hard to read at an angle, a hanging sign catches shoppers walking towards your door.
- Visitors browsing Daventry on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
What projecting and hanging signs cost in Daventry
Prices below are guides, not quotes: £395 to £1,350 per sign plus VAT, depending on size, materials and access. We confirm the exact figure after a survey or an artwork check, and it is agreed before anything is made.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Double-sided panel sign with standard bracket | £395 – £850 | £474 – £1,020 |
| Shaped or painted sign with decorative bracket | £650 – £1,350 | £780 – £1,620 |
Size and shape come first, then the bracket: a scroll bracket costs more than flat bar, and larger signs need stronger brackets and wall plates. Painted finishes, access height, the wall type and any drawings for a highway licence or advertisement consent also affect the figure.
Options for your Daventry project
Traditional scroll bracket
Wrought-iron-style bracket with scrolls, in black or a heritage colour.
Modern blade sign
A rigid sign on a flat-bar or tube arm that doesn't swing.
Shaped symbol sign
Cut to a cup, key or scissors outline, so it reads before the words do.
Do you need permission for a sign in Daventry?
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.
