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.
Reasons to choose flat-cut letters in Musselburgh
- Small firms moving into a new Musselburgh unit can start with flat-cut letters at reception, adding exterior signs once the lease is settled.
- In a shared Musselburgh office building, a name on the wall beside your door helps visitors find you on the right floor.
- Shopfitters and interior designers working on Musselburgh fit-outs can specify flat-cut letters to the exact RAL or Pantone colour.

Do you need permission for a sign in Musselburgh?
Different rules apply in Scotland. The 1984 Scotland Regulations decide whether a non-illuminated sign needs advertisement consent, and while some shop and office signs can go up without applying, the details are not the same as in England. Historic buildings deserve care: listed building consent is usually needed for signs on listed buildings under the 1997 Scotland Act, and carrying out works without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm what applies before you commit to flat-cut letters, then prepare drawings and photographs for an eDevelopment.scot application, or submit it on your behalf.
