Flat-cut letters are individual letters and logos cut from a single solid sheet, typically 5–10 mm acrylic, aluminium composite or metal, and fixed flush to a wall or held off it on stand-offs.
The case for flat-cut letters in Poole
- Small firms moving into a new Poole unit can start with flat-cut letters at reception, adding exterior signs once the lease is settled.
- A serviced office or co-working space in Poole may want a crisp reception name that can change as tenants move on.
- Companies hosting clients in Poole meeting rooms can brand the space with a flat-cut logo rather than printed graphics that date.

Do you need permission for a sign in Poole?
Will you need permission? For a non-illuminated sign at your own business address in England, usually not, as long as it stays inside the deemed consent limits: letters no taller than 0.75 m (0.3 m in an area of special control) and nothing above the bottom of a first-floor window. Historic streets need more care. In a conservation area the details matter more, and fixing to a listed building usually needs listed building consent, with fixings into mortar joints rather than brick or stone faces generally preferred. We check with you before anything is ordered, and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
