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.
Where projecting and hanging signs can pay off in Renfrew
- Corner units in Renfrew gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
- Visitors browsing Renfrew on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
- When Renfrew pavements are busy, fascias disappear behind people and parked vans, but a hanging sign above head height stays in view.
What projecting and hanging signs cost in Renfrew
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.
| 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 Renfrew?
Scotland runs its own advertisement rules, set out in the 1984 Control of Advertisements (Scotland) Regulations as amended. An unlit sign on your own premises may not need an application, but that depends on its size, its position and whether the building is listed or sits in a conservation area. If consent is needed, the council receives the application, typically submitted online through eDevelopment.scot. On a listed building, listed building consent usually applies too, and fixings into mortar joints are generally preferred. We check the position with you before anything is ordered, and we can draw up and submit the paperwork if you would like us to.
