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.
Reasons to choose tray signs in Armagh
- Where several Armagh shops share a parade, a charcoal tray with white letters stands apart from the printed panels around it.
- If your Armagh premises might open into the evening one day, a light-ready tray avoids paying for a second sign later.
- Professional practices in Armagh, such as dentists, opticians and solicitors, may prefer a tray because a clean folded edge suggests care.

Do you need permission for a sign in Armagh?
Before any exterior sign goes up in Northern Ireland, it is worth checking the 2015 NI Advertisement Regulations. Some straightforward signs on business premises fall within what is allowed without applying, but the conditions are Northern Ireland's own and conservation areas need more care. Listed buildings usually need listed building consent as well, and works without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the position with you before you commit to tray signs, and we can prepare the drawings and photographs for an NI Planning Portal application or submit it for you.
