Window graphics are full-colour images or branding printed on self-adhesive vinyl and applied to glass, outside or reverse-printed for the inside, so the window works as a sign.
Window graphics in Derby: the practical benefits
- Shoppers on a Derby high street decide in seconds whether to step in; a printed window tells them what you sell.
- Seasonal sales in Derby are simpler to promote when a fixed-size window panel is just reprinted for each campaign.
- Cafés and takeaways in Derby trading into the evening can leave clear areas so the lit interior still shows.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Derby
Most businesses ask two things about glass: do I need permission, and does it need marking? On permission, councils in England take differing views on window graphics; inside-the-glass work is often outside control or allowed, while big graphics on listed shopfronts or in conservation areas can be restricted. We check before you commit. On marking, Approved Document K recommends manifestation at 850–1000 mm and 1400–1600 mm above floor level on glazing people could walk into, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 (regulation 14) cover transparent surfaces at work. Our proof shows the heights, so you can see the result before anything is cut.
Covering Derby and Derbyshire
