Can you fix letters to a slatted timber or acoustic wall?

Yes. Letters are pinned or studded into the slats themselves, with the template used to line them up across the gaps so no fixing lands on empty space. Thin strokes may need a backing strip or a heavier font weight to span the slats securely.

How small can flat-cut letters be?

Small letters can be cut, but very thin strokes become fragile and hard to fix securely. A strapline under a logo is usually better in vinyl or printed on a panel, with flat-cut kept for the main name and logo. We check stroke widths on your artwork first.

How soon after I approve the proof can the work on flat-cut letters happen?

Typically within a few weeks, depending on what has to be made. Printed and cut graphics are typically produced sooner than fabricated letters, trays or illuminated signs, which need more fabrication time. If the job needs advertisement consent, fitting waits for the council's decision. We confirm an expected date for Bangor once materials are ordered.

Does the price of flat-cut letters in Bangor include VAT?

No. Our guide range of £18–£65 per letter excludes VAT, which is added to the quote. The final figure depends on size, materials, access, removal of existing signage or graphics and the artwork needed, and we confirm it in writing after a survey or once we have checked your files.

Can flat-cut letters be lit?

They can be picked out with external lighting, such as a wall-washer or spotlights, but a solid flat-cut letter has no room for internal LEDs. For a glowing effect, consider halo-lit letters, which are built with depth for LEDs, or an LED neon sign for an interior feature.

Do you need permission for a sign in County Down?

Before any exterior sign goes up in Northern Ireland, it is worth checking the 2015 NI Advertisement Regulations. Some straightforward signs on business premises fall within what is allowed without applying, but the conditions are Northern Ireland's own and conservation areas need more care. Listed buildings usually need listed building consent as well, and works without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the position with you before you commit to flat-cut letters, and we can prepare the drawings and photographs for an NI Planning Portal application or submit it for you.
