Projecting signs in Leicestershire
If customers walk past your Leicestershire shop without seeing the fascia, a sign at right angles can catch them from along the street.
Bracket position matters on sensitive buildings in the East Midlands, especially if your Leicestershire premises are listed or in a conservation area. Before fixing anything over the pavement in Leicestershire, we check what clearance the highway or roads authority expects and whether it needs a licence.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Leicestershire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Leicestershire, including Coalville, Hinckley, Leicester, Loughborough.
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.
Do I need permission for a projecting sign?
Often, yes. In England, non-illuminated signs may have deemed consent, but lit ones lose that route in conservation areas and similar places. The highway authority may also license anything over the pavement. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own rules, and we check these first.
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.
