Hanging Pub Signs

Price range: £63.00 through £152.00

Hanging pub signs are traditional projecting signs designed to extend outward from a building façade, making pub names, logos and branding visible from multiple directions. Commonly used across pubs, bars and taprooms, these signs improve street visibility while adding character to a venue’s exterior. Produced using durable materials and weather-resistant printing methods, our hanging pub signs are built for long-term outdoor use while maintaining a professional and traditional appearance.

What Are Hanging Pub Signs?

Hanging pub signs are projecting exterior signs mounted on brackets that extend outward from the building frontage. Positioned at approximately ninety degrees to the wall, these signs allow the pub name, emblem or logo to be clearly seen by pedestrians and passing traffic approaching from either direction.

This style of signage has long been associated with British public houses, where pictorial symbols and decorative signage were traditionally used to identify pubs before widespread literacy. Today, hanging pub signs continue to play an important role in pub branding and street visibility, combining traditional aesthetics with modern manufacturing techniques.

For hospitality venues located on busy streets, a projecting sign helps businesses stand out among neighbouring buildings and attract passing foot traffic.

Designed for Outdoor Visibility

Hanging pub signs are specifically designed to perform in outdoor environments where visibility and durability are essential. Because the sign projects outward from the building, it can be easily seen from further down the street compared to flat wall-mounted signage.

This projecting design ensures the sign remains visible even in crowded high street environments where buildings, parked vehicles or other signage may partially block traditional wall graphics.

Double-sided printing is often used so that branding and messaging remain visible from both directions along the street.

Materials and Construction

To ensure strength and long-term outdoor performance, hanging pub signs are manufactured using durable signage materials suitable for external conditions.

Panel Materials

We offer several substrate options designed to withstand outdoor exposure.

Foamex (Expanded PVC)
A lightweight and smooth material that provides excellent print quality and weather resistance.

Aluminium Composite Panels
A strong and rigid material commonly used for exterior signage due to its durability and resistance to corrosion.

Fibreglass Panels
A robust and lightweight option that can provide a glossy or textured finish for traditional pub signage styles.

These materials provide excellent durability while maintaining a clean and professional printed appearance.

Brackets and Mounting Options

Hanging pub signs are typically installed using strong wall-mounted brackets designed to support the projecting sign panel.

Common bracket options include:

  • Steel wall brackets
  • Decorative wrought iron brackets
  • Powder-coated metal brackets for corrosion resistance
  • Traditional swing arm supports

Decorative scrollwork and heritage-style brackets are often used to complement the character of traditional pubs or historic buildings.

Secure fixings ensure the sign remains stable while still allowing slight movement if mounted using a swinging support arm.

Custom Shapes and Finishing Options

To match different branding styles and pub aesthetics, hanging pub signs can be produced in a variety of shapes and finishes.

Shape Options

Signs can be cut into a range of traditional and contemporary formats, including:

  • Circular or round signs
  • Oval pub signs
  • Shield-style designs
  • Rectangular signs with curved corners
  • Custom cut-to-shape signage

Custom shapes allow pubs to create signage that reflects their brand identity or historical character.

Surface Finishes

Different finishing options are available depending on the desired appearance.

Gloss Lamination
Creates a vibrant finish that enhances colour depth and visual impact.

Matt Lamination
Provides a softer, anti-glare finish ideal for modern or understated signage styles.

Protective Laminations
Additional surface protection can help extend the lifespan of printed graphics in outdoor environments.

High-Quality Print Technology

Modern printing technology ensures that hanging pub signs deliver sharp graphics and vibrant colours that remain visible for years.

Our signage is produced using high-resolution UV printing, which offers strong colour reproduction and resistance to fading when exposed to sunlight.

Additional design techniques can also be used to create distinctive signage, including:

  • Vinyl lettering for traditional pub styling
  • Cut vinyl detailing
  • High-resolution logo printing
  • Layered or raised graphic elements for added depth

These options allow businesses to create signage that combines traditional pub aesthetics with modern print quality.

Built for Outdoor Durability

Hanging pub signs are exposed to changing weather conditions throughout the year, which is why they are produced using materials and inks designed for exterior signage.

Our signage solutions are built to withstand:

  • Rain and moisture
  • Wind exposure
  • UV sunlight that can cause fading
  • Seasonal temperature changes

Weather-resistant materials and UV-stable inks help prevent cracking, peeling or colour fading, ensuring the sign remains clear and vibrant over time.

Where Hanging Pub Signs Are Used

Hanging pub signs are widely used across hospitality venues that benefit from strong street visibility and traditional exterior branding.

Common locations include:

  • Traditional public houses on busy high streets
  • Craft beer bars and microbreweries
  • Taprooms with outdoor seating areas
  • Gastropubs and restaurant bars
  • Heritage venues and entertainment establishments

The projecting design helps attract attention from pedestrians and passing vehicles while clearly identifying the venue entrance.
