Sign lighting is external or retrofitted lighting that makes an existing sign readable after dark: LED trough lights, swan-neck spotlights or wall washers, or LED modules replacing old lightbox tubes.
What you gain from sign lighting and LED upgrades in Stonehaven
- For a Stonehaven business watching its budget, lighting the existing sign is a sensible first step into evening trade.
- On a retail park outside Stonehaven, wall washers can light the sign and entrance on dark winter afternoons.
- Heritage frontages in Stonehaven may suit discreet external lighting, often easier to justify to planners than a new lit box.

Consent for illuminated signs in Stonehaven
A lit sign is the clearest case for applying first. Scotland's 1984 Advertisement Regulations treat illuminated signs differently from unlit ones, and express consent is usually needed for halo-lit letters, lightboxes and lit projecting signs. We check with the council before you commit to sign lighting and LED upgrades, then put together scaled drawings, photo mock-ups and lighting details, which you can submit via eDevelopment.scot or we can submit for you. Expect the council to look at brightness (PLG05 is the usual reference) and to prefer steady light, perhaps on a time switch. The mains connection is completed by an electrician to BS 7671.
