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.
Where window and door lettering can pay off in Horsforth

- Taking on a new unit in Horsforth? Door lettering often goes up first, showing your name while the rest is planned.
- Drivers and cyclists passing through Horsforth see windows at an angle, so bold letters and short lines help a name register.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Horsforth
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.
