itesecurity Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Don't know if this has been discussed before regarding backlit bell boxes, seen a few of them and personally I dont like them. We have our logo's and telephone numbers etc for advertising and professional appearance but I think the line has to be drawn somewhere. Crying out to be vandalized by the local hoodies. There is a row of around 8 of them at a new devolopment near us and while lit they looked terrible, they were lit for about a week and I can only assume the devoloper had second thoughts as they have not been illuminated since. No offence to anyone that uses them. Your thoughts ?

RichL Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Tat. No one gives a toss, its only us lot in the trade who actually notice bells. Originally said by Charles Babbage On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
itesecurity Posted February 6, 2011 Author Posted February 6, 2011 its only us lot in the trade who actually notice bells. Totally agree,I couldnt see too many of our customers agreeing to them tbh.

sixwheeledbeast Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Does a backlit bellbox on residential need planning permission? I am still trying to make sense of these "guidelines" for signage. At a first quick read it doesn't answer the question. http://www.communities.gov.uk/documents/planningandbuilding/pdf/326679.pdf
