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 Bangor
- An estate agent in Bangor may change window displays weekly but keep the fascia for years, which is where a durable powder coat pays back.
- Shoppers walking along a Bangor pavement see a sign side-on first, and tray returns give it a solid edge from exactly that angle.
- Clinics and salons in Bangor wanting a calm, premium look can get it from raised acrylic letters on a matt tray, unlit.

Do you need permission for a sign in Bangor?
Deemed or express consent? In Wales the answer depends on the 1992 Control of Advertisements Regulations, as amended, rather than the English 2007 version. A plain, unlit sign on your own business frontage is often allowed without applying, within limits on size and position, but the details differ from England's, and conservation areas call for extra care. If the building is listed, expect to need listed building consent too. We check with the council before you commit to tray signs, and can prepare the drawings and photographs or handle the submission for you.
