Tray signs are fascia signs folded from aluminium sheet so the face turns back at the edges into returns, typically 50–75 mm deep, then powder coated and hung on concealed fixings.
Tray signs in High Wycombe: the practical benefits
- Where several High Wycombe shops share a parade, a charcoal tray with white letters stands apart from the printed panels around it.
- Professional practices in High Wycombe, such as dentists, opticians and solicitors, may prefer a tray because a clean folded edge suggests care.
- Shoppers walking along a High Wycombe pavement see a sign side-on first, and tray returns give it a solid edge from exactly that angle.

Do you need permission for a sign in High Wycombe?
Advertisement consent in England comes from the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007. A sign is either excluded from control, has deemed consent, or needs express consent from the council's planning department. For a plain, unlit sign on your own premises, deemed consent usually applies when characters are 0.75 m tall or less (0.3 m in an area of special control) and the top edge is below the first-floor windows. Conservation areas need more care, and a listed building usually needs listed building consent as well; working without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the route before you commit, and can prepare the drawings for an application or submit it for you.
