Rules for window and glass graphics in Caernarfon

Shop windows in Wales are a grey area for advertisement control, and each council takes its own view. Lettering and graphics fixed to the inside face of the glass are often outside control or permitted, yet a large design on a listed shopfront or in a conservation area may run into restrictions. For that reason we ask before anything is printed. Safety is a separate duty. Panes people could walk into must be made visible, Welsh building guidance carries the same aim, and at work regulation 14 of the 1992 Workplace Regulations requires marking where needed. Our proof shows exactly where the manifestation sits.

One-way vision film in Caernarfon: questions

Can I get a fixed price for one-way vision film in Caernarfon before committing?

Yes. We start from the guide range, £32 to £62 per m² excluding VAT, then measure up or look at your photos and artwork. That gives a fixed written price reflecting the real size, materials, access and any design or consent work. You only commit once you accept that price and approve the proof.

What image resolution does one-way vision need?

Around 100 dpi at the finished printed size is usually enough, because the perforations soften fine detail and the window is seen from a distance. Logos and text should be vector files. If an image is too small, we say so at the artwork check.

Will someone visit my premises in Caernarfon before quoting?

If the job needs it, yes. For signs fixed to a building, anything illuminated or work at height, we arrange a survey to measure, check the wall and plan access. For window graphics, lettering and many vehicle jobs, clear photos with measurements are often enough, and we only visit if something needs a closer look.

How soon after I approve the proof can the work on one-way vision film happen?

Typically within a few weeks, depending on what has to be made. Printed and cut graphics are typically produced sooner than fabricated letters, trays or illuminated signs, which need more fabrication time. If the job needs advertisement consent, fitting waits for the council's decision. We confirm an expected date for Caernarfon once materials are ordered.

How much does one-way vision cost?

Printed one-way vision has a guide price of £32–£62 per m², printed, laminated and fitted, excluding VAT, with a minimum job of £225 + VAT. The fixed price depends on area, number of panes and artwork, and is confirmed after measuring.

Is one-way vision allowed on a van's rear window?

Generally, yes, provided the vehicle has two exterior mirrors so the driver can see behind. The windscreen must let through at least 75 per cent of light and front side windows at least 70 per cent, so graphics never go there.
