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.
Why choose window graphics in the Scottish Borders?
- If your Hawick premises is in a conservation area, we check with the council first, as large window graphics can be restricted.
- Cafés and takeaways in Hawick trading into the evening can leave clear areas so the lit interior still shows.
- Seasonal sales in Hawick are simpler to promote when a fixed-size window panel is just reprinted for each campaign.

Rules for window and glass graphics in the Scottish Borders
Start with safety. Large panes and glazed doors that people could walk into need manifestation so the glass is obvious, a requirement reflected in Scotland's building standards guidance and, for workplaces, in regulation 14 of the Workplace Regulations 1992. Planning comes next: councils differ in how they treat window graphics, and while inside-the-glass work is often outside control or allowed, a listed building or conservation area can restrict larger designs. We confirm the marking heights and any planning points with you before you approve the proof.
