The full range of shop signage from Signs Company Manchester. Fascia signs, window graphics, A-boards, illuminated signs, directional signs and everything in between — designed, made and installed locally.
Shop signage in Manchester covers everything that makes your retail premises visible, identifiable and professional from the street. From your primary fascia sign above the door to window graphics, pavement signs and internal directional signs — every element contributes to how customers find you and how they perceive your business.
Signs Company Manchester provides a complete shop signage service — the only sign company you need for your entire premises. We handle planning permissions, manufacture every type of sign in our Manchester workshop and install throughout Greater Manchester with our own installation teams.
We’ve been signwriting and installing shop signs across Manchester for over 20 years. We know what works on Northern Quarter boutiques, what’s appropriate in Manchester conservation areas, and what creates the right impression for every type of retail environment from a market stall to a flagship high street store.
We offer a wide variety of styles, materials and finishes to suit every budget and brand.
Your primary shop front sign — aluminium composite, illuminated lightbox or 3D built-up letters above your entrance. The most important sign your business has.
LED-lit fascia panels, channel letter signs and lightboxes that make your shop visible from a distance in all conditions — day, night and Manchester weather.
Vinyl lettering, full-window display graphics, frosted privacy panels and promotional window displays that make the most of your shop’s glass frontage.
Pavement-level promotion right where your customers are walking — daily specials, offers and brand messages at the point of decision.
Traditional and modern projecting signs mounted perpendicular to your building — catching foot traffic approaching from both directions on the street.
Internal directional signs, department labels, overhead aisle signs and building directories for multi-level, multi-department and multi-tenant retail environments.
Design, manufacture, planning and installation all handled by one team. You deal with one company from brief to installed sign — simpler and more accountable.
We understand Manchester City Council’s advertising consent process inside out — including conservation area requirements for the Northern Quarter, Castlefield and other protected areas.
We visit your premises before quoting, assess your fascia and recommend the most effective signage solution for your specific building and location.
Our installation team is experienced, insured and equipped for any access challenge — including high fascias, narrow pavements and listed buildings.
We handle the complete electrical installation for illuminated signs — from supply cable to sign connection — fully Part P compliant.
Signs need maintenance. We offer ongoing service contracts and one-off repair call-outs to keep your shop signage looking its best for years.
From first enquiry to final installation — here’s what to expect when you work with us.
We visit your premises, discuss your brand requirements and provide honest advice on what will and won’t work at your specific location.
We create your signage design and manage any planning applications required — Advertisement Consent for illuminated or large external signs.
Every element of your shop signage is manufactured in our Manchester workshop — quality controlled throughout.
Professional installation by our own team on an agreed date that minimises disruption to your trading hours.
Post-installation inspection, warranty documentation and ongoing maintenance advice. We want your signs to last.
At minimum: a fascia sign, window graphics for trading hours and contact details, and an A-board pavement sign. For many businesses, adding illumination to the fascia and a projecting blade sign significantly increases visibility.
A straightforward non-illuminated fascia sign typically takes 2–3 weeks from order. Illuminated signs and any requiring planning permission take 4–8 weeks in most cases.
Not all — simple non-illuminated flat fascia signs often fall within permitted development rights. Illuminated signs, large signs and signs in conservation areas typically require Advertisement Consent. We assess this at the site survey stage.
Often yes. If your existing sign frame or box is in good condition, we can manufacture new graphic panels or vinyl covers without the cost of replacing the full structure.
Yes — we install throughout Greater Manchester including Salford, Stockport, Didsbury, Chorlton, Trafford, Oldham, Bolton and all surrounding areas.
