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.
Flat-cut letters in Harlow: the practical benefits
- Small firms moving into a new Harlow unit can start with flat-cut letters at reception, adding exterior signs once the lease is settled.
- In a shared Harlow office building, a name on the wall beside your door helps visitors find you on the right floor.
- Companies hosting clients in Harlow 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 Harlow?
In England, a non-illuminated sign on your own business premises usually falls under deemed consent, which means no application is needed provided the sign stays within set limits. The lettering and symbols should be no more than 0.75 m tall (0.3 m in an area of special control), and the top of the sign should sit no higher than the bottom of any first-floor window. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care: a sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent. We check the position for your premises before you commit, and we can prepare the drawings and photos for an application or submit it for you.
Covering Harlow and Essex
Wherever you are in Essex, Harlow included, the service is identical. We arrange a survey when the sign is fixed to a building or needs power, and we work from photographs, drawings or the make and model of the vehicle when that is enough to price graphics accurately. In postcode terms, Harlow jobs typically fall in CM20, CM18, CM17 and CM19. From Southend-on-Sea, Harlow is roughly 31 miles to the north-west.
