Signage for Newcastle and the Hunter, measured before it is made
Newcastle's main streets have been rebuilt around the light rail, Lake Macquarie's shopping strips are long and low, and the Hunter's trades run on utes with a name on the door. None of that is a product you pick off a shelf — a sign is made to a building or a vehicle, so it starts with a site measure, not a checkout. We come to your premises, measure, talk through materials and approvals, and quote the job as it actually is. Then you see a proof, and nothing is fabricated until you approve it.

Does HSH Prints and Signages have a shop in Newcastle?
The honest bit first
HSH Prints and Signages does not have a shopfront in Newcastle. We are an online order desk — production is inside your state and the job is couriered to you, or installed at your premises for measured signage. The site measure is the in-person part: a person at your building with a tape measure and a camera, so the quote is for your wall, not an average one. One number reaches us: (02) 5302 3372.
Approval first, fabrication second
The City of Newcastle has heritage streetscapes from the East End to Hamilton, and a sign often needs council consent before it needs a maker. Read sign approval in Newcastle before ordering anything that fixes to a building; if your premises is in Lake Macquarie or up the valley, the state-wide picture is at NSW signage approval. If consent is needed, tell us at the site measure: we supply dimensioned drawings and a scaled elevation for the application, and we schedule fabrication around the approval instead of finishing early and storing your sign.
Not sure how big the letters should be? Letter height against viewing distance is the guide to read before anyone quotes you a size.
Where we measure
Site measures cover Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Maitland, and further up the valley by arrangement. For vehicle signage, the measure can happen wherever the vehicle is, including your driveway. Booking starts from the shopfront signage page or a call to (02) 5302 3372.
Common questions
Do you install signage in Newcastle, or just deliver it?
Measured signage — shopfronts and vehicles — is installed, not posted: the same process that measures your site returns to fit the finished sign. Shipped products like corflute signs, banners and A-frames are couriered to your door instead.
How does a Newcastle site measure work?
You book, we come to the premises, measure the fascia or vehicle, photograph the site and talk through materials and council approval. The quote that follows is for your building as measured, and a proof precedes fabrication — nothing is made until you approve it.
Do you have a Newcastle showroom?
No — HSH Prints and Signages is an online order desk with no shopfront anywhere. Production is inside NSW, quotes come from a real site measure, and every job is proofed before it is made. It is the showroom we skip, not the site visit.
Do you do signage design in Newcastle as well as making the signs?
Yes. We set your logo and wording to the sign’s real size, and for shopfront work we measure on site first so the design is drawn to the actual fascia. You see a proof before anything is made. Design from nothing is quoted separately before it starts.
