Seen by people approaching along the street, a projecting sign can identify a business before the main fascia comes into view. These double-sided signs are especially effective for shops, pubs, restaurants, hotels, salons and businesses in busy pedestrian areas. More Creative creates projecting signs, hanging signs and swing signs in shapes, materials and finishes that complement the building and wider branding.
Fixing method, bracket style, clearance, wind exposure and viewing height all influence the final design. Options range from traditional framed and timber-effect signs to crisp sign trays, shaped panels and illuminated projecting boxes. Artwork and structure are developed together so the sign reads clearly from both sides and feels properly integrated with the frontage, followed by careful manufacture and professional installation.
Browse these projecting-sign projects for ideas ranging from traditional hanging signs to contemporary illuminated designs. Sharing the styles you like will help us develop an option that suits your building, brand and viewing distance.
