Fleet livery is a consistent set of vehicle graphics, produced from master templates for each vehicle model, so every van, car, truck or trailer a business runs carries the same branding in the same position.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Downpatrick

Planning for fleet livery in Northern Ireland? The council's advertisement rules generally do not apply to vehicles in normal use, though a vehicle stationed mainly as an advert can be treated as one. The points to watch are DVLA, insurance and visibility: update the V5C if the main colour changes, let your insurer know, and keep the windscreen (75% light minimum) and front side windows (70%) free of graphics. Rear one-way vision film is used on vans and cars with two exterior mirrors. For leased vehicles, check the agreement on graphics and removal.

Fleet livery in Downpatrick: questions

How many vehicles make a fleet?

Any number from two upwards. The benefit of fleet livery is consistency and good records rather than size, so a firm with three vans gains as much from a master template as one with fifty. The one-off template set-up is spread across every vehicle you add, both now and in the years ahead.

Why is there a price range for fleet livery rather than one figure?

Because jobs vary. The guide of £225 to £1,650 per vehicle + VAT spans small, simple work at one end and larger, more involved work at the other. Size, material, finish, access, design time and any consent drawings push the figure up or down. A survey or artwork check lets us fix the price for your job in Downpatrick.

How long does it take to get fleet livery in Downpatrick?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.

How do you keep colours consistent across the fleet?

By fixing the film and print references at the start and recording them. Solid-colour vinyl is chosen from a fixed range, and printed colours are matched to your references and proofed on the actual film. Small variations between print batches can occur, so replacement panels are checked against the graphics already fitted.

Can cars and vans in one fleet carry different levels of graphics?

Yes, and it's common. Pool cars might carry a logo and web address on the doors, vans a part wrap with services and phone number, and trucks larger side graphics. The colours, typefaces and logo placement stay consistent, so every vehicle still reads as the same business.
