Shop Signs in Brighton

Your Shop Front Is Your First Impression. Make It Count.
Before a single customer steps through your door, your shop sign has already done the talking. It's your brand, your personality, and your promise, all rolled into one. A poorly designed or tired-looking sign can turn footfall away before you've had the chance to win them over. A great one stops people in their tracks.
At Odysea Signs, we specialise in creating bespoke shop signage that captures the essence of your brand and demands attention on the high street. From traditional hand-painted fascias and built-up lettering to fully illuminated lightboxes and LED-lit channel signs, we craft every sign with care, precision, and a deep understanding of what makes a retail presence truly stand out.
We work with independent retailers, national chains, and everything in between, tailoring each project to suit your brand guidelines, planning requirements, and budget. Our team manages the entire process from design and planning consent through to manufacture and professional installation, so you don't have to worry about a thing.

Case studies
Types of shop sign we make
Fascia signs
The main sign above your shopfront, in aluminium composite, painted timber or other materials, with applied, built-up or hand-painted lettering.
Built-up and 3D letters
Individual letters in metal or acrylic, fixed to the fascia or wall for a premium, dimensional finish.
Illuminated shop signs
Lightboxes, halo-lit letters and face-lit channel letters that keep your shop visible after dark.
Projecting and hanging signs
Signs that stand out from the building, so people walking along the street can see you from further away.
Window graphics
Vinyl lettering, opening hours, promotional graphics and frosted film that finish off your shopfront.
Our Installation Process
STAGE 1
Initial Consultation
We start by getting to know your business, your brand, and your goals. Whether in person or remotely, we'll discuss your requirements, assess your site, and advise on the best signage solutions to suit your budget and vision.
STAGE 2
Design
Our in-house design team brings your ideas to life. We produce detailed visuals and technical drawings for your approval, ensuring every detail — from typography and colour to materials and sizing — is exactly right before anything goes to production.
STAGE 3
Production
Once the design is signed off, our skilled craftsmen get to work. Using quality materials and precision manufacturing techniques, we produce signage built to withstand the elements and represent your brand at its very best.
STAGE 4
Installation
Our experienced installation team handles everything from start to finish. We work safely, efficiently, and with minimal disruption to your business — leaving you with signage that's fitted correctly, finished beautifully, and ready to make an impression.
Planning consent and landlords
Many shop signs need advertisement consent from the local council, particularly if they are illuminated or on a listed building or in a conservation area. Some landlords and shopping centres also have their own signage rules.
We can advise on what is likely to be needed, prepare drawings for applications and work to landlord requirements, so your sign goes up without delays.
We have produced shop signage for independent retailers across Brighton and Sussex, as well as national brands such as AllSaints. For multi-site retailers, we can roll out consistent signage nationwide.

Public liability insurance, CSCS cards, current RAMS documentation, and working at height certification — every paperwork requirement covered before we arrive on site.
Detailed Pre-Planning
Every installation is planned in advance — site visits, method statements, access planning — so there are no surprises on the day and no delays once the team arrives.
Standalone Installation
Already have your signs produced? We offer installation as a standalone service and will work with your artwork, supplier drawings, or any existing signage scheme.
Minimal Disruption
We respect your business and your customers. Installations are planned to minimise disruption — flexible scheduling, efficient working, and a clean site handed back promptly.
Nationwide for Multi-Site
Coordinating a multi-site rollout? We manage sequential or simultaneous installations across multiple locations — consistent output wherever you need it.
It depends. Many non-illuminated fascia signs do not need an application, but illuminated signs and signs on listed buildings or in conservation areas usually do. We can advise before you commit.
It depends on the design, materials and whether consent is needed. We confirm a timeline with your quote, covering design approval, manufacture and installation.
Yes. We can remove and dispose of your existing sign as part of the installation.
In most cases, yes. We plan installation to keep disruption to a minimum and can work outside trading hours where needed.
It depends on the size, materials and whether it is illuminated. We provide a fixed quote before any work starts.
