How much does door lettering cost?

Door lettering with opening hours has a guide price of £95–£245 + VAT, supplied and fitted, and a full window set £195–£480 + VAT. Gold or metallic vinyl adds a guide £30–£120 + VAT. The price is confirmed once we see photos and wording.

Could the consent process affect the timing of my job in Bangor?

It can. Not every job needs an application, but where express consent is required the council's decision typically takes several weeks, and fitting typically waits until it is granted. We check this at the start, so the timetable you receive with your quote allows for consent where it applies, along with the proof approval stage.

Do you need to visit before fitting?

Not always. For a single door or window, clear photos taken straight on with a tape measure in shot, plus glass sizes, are often enough for a scaled proof. A visit helps for large frontages, unusual glazing or old lettering to remove.

Is gold vinyl the same as gold leaf?

No. Gold vinyl is a metallic film cut by machine and applied like other lettering, for a gilded look at lower cost. Gold leaf is real metal applied by hand, with a deeper shine. From the pavement, metallic vinyl with a black outline reads as signwriting.

Do you work across County Down or only in Bangor?

Across all of County Down, and the rest of the UK too. Bangor is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Can I get a fixed price for window and door lettering in Bangor before committing?

Yes. We start from the guide range, £95 to £480 per window 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.

Rules for window and glass graphics in County Down

For glazed shopfronts, doors and office partitions in Northern Ireland, safety comes first. Glass that someone could walk into needs marking so it can be seen; the NI Workplace Regulations 1993 require this at work where necessary, and Northern Ireland's building guidance shares the same aim. The planning side varies by council. Internal window graphics are often outside control or allowed, yet large graphics on a listed shopfront or in a conservation area may be restricted, and the 2015 NI Advertisement Regulations apply to anything that needs consent. We check before you commit.
