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.
Why choose van sign-writing for a business in Armadale?
- Expanding beyond Armadale into the rest of Edinburgh and the Lothians? Adding new areas or services to the lettering is a small change rather than a new wrap.
- Dog walkers and weekend shoppers in Armadale pass parked vans at walking pace, which is when a simple layout gets read from top to bottom.
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Armadale often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Armadale
For vehicle graphics in Scotland, think DVLA and insurance rather than planning. A vehicle that is normally driven is outside advertisement control, though one parked up mainly as an advertisement is not. If the main colour changes, update the colour on your V5C and tell your insurer. We keep all graphics clear of the windscreen and front side windows, which need at least 75% and 70% light transmission under the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations. Before wrapping, we check the paintwork: chips, rust, poor resprays or failing lacquer can lift when the wrap is removed later.
Covering Armadale and Edinburgh and the Lothians
Yes, Armadale is covered, as is the rest of Edinburgh and the Lothians. 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. Addresses in EH48 and EH47 are all within our Armadale coverage. Roughly 20 miles separate Armadale from Edinburgh, which lies to the east.
