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.
Points in favour of tray signs in Greenock
- Shoppers walking along a Greenock pavement see a sign side-on first, and tray returns give it a solid edge from exactly that angle.
- Professional practices in Greenock, such as dentists, opticians and solicitors, may prefer a tray because a clean folded edge suggests care.
- Where several Greenock shops share a parade, a charcoal tray with white letters stands apart from the printed panels around it.

Do you need permission for a sign in Greenock?
Scotland runs its own advertisement rules, set out in the 1984 Control of Advertisements (Scotland) Regulations as amended. An unlit sign on your own premises may not need an application, but that depends on its size, its position and whether the building is listed or sits in a conservation area. If consent is needed, the council receives the application, typically submitted online through eDevelopment.scot. On a listed building, listed building consent usually applies too, and fixings into mortar joints are generally preferred. We check the position with you before anything is ordered, and we can draw up and submit the paperwork if you would like us to.
