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.
Practical reasons to consider projecting and hanging signs in Nottingham
- With an older frontage, a Nottingham pub, café or bakery often suits a traditional painted sign on a scroll bracket.
- A small Nottingham shop squeezed between larger neighbours can still be spotted from the end of the street with a well-placed hanging sign.
- When Nottingham pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.

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 Nottingham?
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.
