Build brand awareness with a projecting or hanging sign
Are you looking to create a real wow factor for your shop?
Do planning constraints mean you can only have a small sign?
Wondering how to make the most out of your position on the pavement?
If you want to make your business stand out more, then a hanging or projecting sign is the perfect option.
Designed to – quite literally – stand out from your building, these protruding sign options mean that prospective customers will be able to easily spot your business name from a distance.
Why is a projecting or hanging sign perfect for your business?
If planning constraints mean you’re unable to use a large sign to promote your business, then a small-but-mighty hanging sign is the perfect answer.
A hanging or projecting sign is fixed to the side of your building and projects outwards.
They’re a super-versatile option, so whether you need a simple, sophisticated design made out of sleek materials or a bold, whacky sign with bright illumination, your business will be sure to catch the eyes of any passersby.
Made with weather and rust-resistant materials, high-quality acrylic, and long-lasting LEDs, these are a robust and cost-efficient way to bring a unique touch to your business’s exterior.
Combine your projecting or hanging sign with a branded window graphic for ultimate curb appeal.

FAQ’s
Do you need permission for a sign?
If you work in a listed building, residential area, high street, or shopping centre, you may need planning permission before fitting a hanging sign (especially if you opt for an illuminated one).
We can point you in the right direction or check with your local council on your behalf if you’re unsure.
How long will the LEDs in my projecting tray sign last?
We guarantee the LEDs in our signs for 12 months.
But, if for any reason the worst happens and an LED breaks within that period, we would replace them or fix the broken light.
Is running an illuminated projecting sign expensive?
Our projecting signage options use low-energy LED lights that run off a 12V transformer. While they will cost more to run than their non-illuminated cousins, they are a cheap and more environmentally-friendly choice than some other illumination options.
Where can I use a projecting sign?
Busy high streets, markets, warehouse buildings, shop fronts; anywhere, really!
