Projecting signs in Lancashire
If customers walk past your Lancashire shop without seeing the fascia, a sign at right angles can catch them from along the street.
Upper-floor businesses in the North West can use a projecting sign to show customers which Lancashire door leads to them. Bracket position matters on sensitive buildings in the North West, especially if your Lancashire premises are listed or in a conservation area.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Lancashire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Lancashire, including Accrington, Blackburn, Blackpool, Burnley.
How high does a projecting sign need to be?
Many authorities expect at least 2.5 m clear above the pavement, and some ask for more. In England, lit signs relying on Class 4B deemed consent must meet 2.5 m. The highway authority may set its own clearance, and rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Who is responsible if a sign falls?
Usually the person who owns or controls the sign, which makes regular checks worthwhile. Your public liability cover should include it, and your lease may say who maintains it. Look at the bracket and fixings every so often, particularly after high winds.
Will a projecting sign damage my wall?
It should not, if the bracket is fixed into sound masonry with the right anchors. Older brick or stone may need different fixings, and listed buildings will need consent. We check the wall first and use mortar joints for fixings where that is the better choice.
