Van sign-writing is lettering, a logo and contact details cut from coloured vinyl and applied straight onto a van's paint, usually on the sides and rear doors, without covering whole panels in printed film.
Good reasons to look at van sign-writing in Strabane
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Strabane often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.
- Your van probably spends more time on Strabane roads than any leaflet spends on a doormat, so put the money into large, clear lettering.
- Parked on a driveway in Strabane for a day's work, a sign-written van tells the whole street who's doing the job and how to ring you.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Strabane
Does a wrapped or lettered vehicle count as an advertisement under Northern Ireland's planning rules? Not while it is used as a vehicle. Councils can treat a vehicle parked mainly to display an advert as a sign, but day-to-day livery is outside control. Registration in Northern Ireland sits with DVLA, as it does in Great Britain, so a change of main colour goes on the V5C and your insurer needs telling. The law sets minimums for the front glass: at least 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows, which is why our designs leave them untouched. Leased vehicles may carry conditions on graphics and their removal.
Covering Strabane and County Tyrone
Yes, Strabane is covered, as is the rest of County Tyrone. For signs that are fixed to a wall or wired in, we arrange a visit to survey first. For window film, lettering or vehicle graphics, a set of photos with measurements is often all we need to put a price together. From Omagh, Strabane is roughly 17 miles to the north-west.
