Fascia Signs

One of the most prominent external branding displays, fascia signs are mounted on shop fronts or above building doors. Derived from the word ‘facias’, meaning front, these signs are the bricks-and-mortar for any company, communicating your brand presence or products and services. Often designed to display the business’ name, logo, or key branding elements, shop fascias serve as a clear identifier for customers. They improve visibility and brand recognition and set the tone for customers’ first impressions.

At Lavastar, we’re the UK’s leading provider of fascia signage, dedicated to innovation and bespoke designs that add the finishing touches to your business. We specialise in using high-quality materials to craft custom fascia packages, and with our custom in-house graphic design team and our qualified CSCS sign installers, we deliver nothing short of excellence.

Our Shop Fascia Products

We offer an expansive selection of fascia signage, including:

Vinyl Graphic Fascia

These durable vinyl fascia signs can be custom printed with logos, text, or images. They are often used for quick branding or promotional messages. Vinyl fascia signs can be flat or layered and are available in matte, gloss, or frosted finishes.

Aluminium Tray Fascia

Among the most durable shop front fascia signs, folded aluminium (Dibond) trays are available in a range of finishes and make for easily concealed installation. These create a sleek and industrial look with steel or brushed metal tones.

Wooden Fascia Signs

Providing a rustic and natural look, wooden shop fascia can be crafted from various wood types and painted or carved to fit your branding.

Illuminated Fascia Signs

Illuminated fascia signs are installed with lighting, making them visible at night or in low-light conditions, ensuring your business is noticeable at all times. Choose either a backlit or front-lit fascia sign in your brand’s colours and fonts.

Individual Fascia Lettering

This involves using separate letters or numbers that are mounted directly on the building’s existing fascia. This type of shop signage allows for a clean and modern look where each letter is spaced out to create a minimalist design using materials such as acrylic, metal or foam.

Flat Lettering Fascia Signs

This style of fascia signage consists of lettering directly printed onto a flat surface without any raised elements. Providing a simple and straightforward design, these shop fascias are often produced with vinyl, acrylic, or painted finishes.

3D Or Raised Lettering Fascia

These give depth and dimension to a fascia sign, with raised letters that stand off from the signage. They are often made from metal or acrylic, giving it a more visually striking appearance.

Awning Fascia Signage

Incorporated into a canopy or awning above a business’s entrance, these shop fascias can be printed with text, images, or logos. They make a statement and help you stand out on a busy high street.

  • Increased visibility: Shop front signs are placed above the entranceway, making them visible to customers and helping your business stand out.
  • Brand recognition: A well-designed shop fascia serves as a visual reminder of your brand and helps to reinforce your company’s identity.
  • Attracts customers: Fascia signs help to draw people in by signalling that your business is open and can make a difference between someone walking into your store rather than passing by.
  • Professional appearance: Fascia signage creates a polished and professional appearance, creating a welcoming storefront.
  • Cost-effective: Shopfront signs are a one-time investment with long-term benefits. They provide continuous exposure for your business, promoting your brand without any ongoing cost.

  • Marketing suites
  • Gym fascia
  • Office fascia
  • Hotel fascia signs
  • General welcome fascia signs
  • Tourist attraction fascia

Do I Need Planning Permission For My Fascia Sign?

Yes, it’s a legal requirement to get permission or, in some cases, acquire a permit when installing fascia signage. Prior to beginning your project, you can contact your local planning office who will be able to guide you through your specific local requirements.

What Are Fascia Signs Made From?

Fascia signage can be made from various materials depending on your desired aesthetic, your branding, and the environment the sign will be in. Choose from fascia signs in hard-wearing materials such as acrylic, aluminium or metal or those made from wood, vinyl, foam board, fabric, LED panels, and more.

Are Fascia Signs Weather-Resistant?

Yes, shop fascia are designed to withstand outdoor conditions. Made with durable materials or weatherproof casings, all our signs are designed to last.

How Long Do Fascia Signs Last?

The lifespan of a shop front fascia sign depends on the materials used, weather conditions and how well it’s maintained. However, they generally last between 5-10 years. Illuminated signs may require the occasional bulb replacement to keep it going.

How Can I Maintain My Shop Fascia?

Cleaning your fascia sign is essential to keep it looking professional and protecting it from wear and tear over time. Dust and clean with soft cloths and warm, soapy water to remove any dirt or grime; this will ensure it looks its best and is clear and legible for viewers. If there’s any damage or rust, or you need touch-ups, Lavastar can help!
