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.
What tray signs can do for businesses in Limavady
- Businesses moving into a refurbished Limavady building can use a wrap-around tray to hide an uneven old fascia without stripping it out.
- An estate agent in Limavady may change window displays weekly but keep the fascia for years, which is where a durable powder coat pays back.
- If your Limavady premises might open into the evening one day, a light-ready tray avoids paying for a second sign later.

Do you need permission for a sign in Limavady?
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.
