No wooden plugs or anchorage with wood in connections or nails shall be considered sufficient for proper anchorage.
    (B) If a wall sign is illuminated, overhead lighting reflectors may project six feet from the face of the bulletin or sign.

No wall sign shall be so erected as to cover the doors and windows of any building in common use or otherwise prevent free ingress to or egress from the building or any fire escape.
