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.

Practical reasons to consider flat-cut letters in Peacehaven

  • In a shared Peacehaven office building, a name on the wall beside your door helps visitors find you on the right floor.
  • Shopfitters and interior designers working on Peacehaven fit-outs can specify flat-cut letters to the exact RAL or Pantone colour.
  • Companies hosting clients in Peacehaven 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 Peacehaven?

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.

Flat-cut letters in Peacehaven: questions

What is the typical timescale for flat-cut letters from enquiry to fitting?

A quote typically follows once we have your photos or have surveyed the site, and making and fitting is typically booked a few weeks after you approve the proof. Where advertisement consent applies, that decision has to come through before anything goes up, which can add several weeks. We give you an expected timescale with your quote for Peacehaven.

Can flat-cut letters be used for room names and wayfinding?

Yes. The same cutting suits meeting-room names, floor numbers and directional arrows, so internal signs match your reception lettering. Keeping one material, colour and font throughout makes a building feel consistent, and every sign is set out from one drawing for matching heights.

Does the price of flat-cut letters in Peacehaven 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.

Do you work across East Sussex or only in Peacehaven?

Across all of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK too. Peacehaven is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Can flat-cut letters go on glass?

Yes. On a glass partition or screen, letters are bonded with a clear adhesive made for glass, and the back of each letter is visible from the other side, so it is finished to look tidy from both directions. A frosted band behind can hide the adhesive.

How thick should flat-cut letters be?

For most receptions, 5 mm suits smaller text and 10 mm suits main names and logos. Outside, the thicker end of the range is safer because it resists bowing and shows a visible edge from the side. Very large letters usually move into metal or built-up construction.
