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 Abingdon
- If your Abingdon street is narrow and fascias are hard to read at an angle, a hanging sign catches shoppers walking towards your door.
- Corner units in Abingdon gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
- Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for an Abingdon frontage.
What projecting and hanging signs cost in Abingdon
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.
| 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.

Do you need permission for a sign in Abingdon?
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.
