Window lettering is text or simple logos cut from self-adhesive vinyl, with no background film, applied to glass doors and windows to show a name, opening hours and contact details.
The case for window and door lettering in Blantyre
- Barbers and cafés on a Blantyre high street need clear opening hours, as many customers pass first and return later.
- Drivers and cyclists passing through Blantyre see windows at an angle, so bold letters and short lines help a name register.
- Taking on a new unit in Blantyre? Door lettering often goes up first, showing your name while the rest is planned.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Blantyre
Two questions, two sets of rules. On whether window graphics count as advertising, Scottish councils take differing approaches; internal graphics are often outside control or allowed, but large graphics on listed shopfronts or in conservation areas can be restricted. On safety, glazing that could be walked into must be marked, which Scotland's own building guidance addresses and which the Workplace Regulations 1992 (regulation 14) require at work where necessary. We check with the council when the building or street calls for it, and set the marking heights out on the proof for window and door lettering.
