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 Oadby
- Shopfitters and interior designers working on Oadby fit-outs can specify flat-cut letters to the exact RAL or Pantone colour.
- Inside an Oadby clinic or practice, letters behind the reception desk tell visitors they are in the right place straight away.

Do you need permission for a sign in Oadby?
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.
