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.
Why choose tray signs in County Fermanagh?
- Businesses moving into a refurbished Enniskillen building can use a wrap-around tray to hide an uneven old fascia without stripping it out.
- Professional practices in Enniskillen, such as dentists, opticians and solicitors, may prefer a tray because a clean folded edge suggests care.
- If your Enniskillen premises might open into the evening one day, a light-ready tray avoids paying for a second sign later.
Guide prices in County Fermanagh

Length matters most, because longer trays need joints, more coating and more fixing rail. Then come the lettering method, letter count, special or metallic powder coats, access height and removal of the old sign. Every figure is confirmed after survey and an artwork check.
Do you need permission for a sign in County Fermanagh?
Signs in Northern Ireland are covered by the 2015 Control of Advertisements Regulations (NI), not the English or Scottish versions. Whether an unlit sign needs an application depends on its size, where it sits on the building and whether the building is listed or in a conservation area. Where consent is needed, the council handles it, with applications made online via the NI Planning Portal. For listed buildings, listed building consent usually applies too, and fixings into mortar joints are generally preferred. We check what applies to your premises before anything is ordered, and we can prepare or submit the application for you.
