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 you gain from tray signs in Eastleigh
- An estate agent in Eastleigh may change window displays weekly but keep the fascia for years, which is where a durable powder coat pays back.
- A modern Eastleigh retail park unit with grey cladding suits a powder-coated tray matched to the window frames' RAL colour.
- Businesses moving into a refurbished Eastleigh building can use a wrap-around tray to hide an uneven old fascia without stripping it out.

Do you need permission for a sign in Eastleigh?
Will you need permission? For a non-illuminated sign at your own business address in England, usually not, as long as it stays inside the deemed consent limits: letters no taller than 0.75 m (0.3 m in an area of special control) and nothing above the bottom of a first-floor window. Historic streets need more care. In a conservation area the details matter more, and fixing to a listed building usually needs listed building consent, with fixings into mortar joints rather than brick or stone faces generally preferred. We check with you before anything is ordered, and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
Covering Eastleigh and Hampshire
Coverage is nationwide, which means Eastleigh and the surrounding parts of Hampshire are included as standard. Anything fixed to a building normally needs someone on site to measure and check fixings and access; simpler graphics can usually be quoted from images you send. Addresses in SO50, SO53 and SO18 are all within our Eastleigh coverage. Roughly 4.9 miles separate Eastleigh from Southampton, which lies to the south-west.
