Shop window lettering and window stickers

How large and which areas should be labeled?

You know which contents will be displayed in the shop window? Then you can now determine the appropriate sizes. Tip: Always make sure that the fonts are still legible from a distance, so you can reach the customers on the other side of the street. In our configurators (adhesive lettering or own motif) you can easily set the exact size of the adhesive foils and stickers. Measure the maximum space on your shop window and enter the desired size in our configurators (the corresponding width or height for your input will be determined automatically). Think about whether you would like to apply seasonal lettering, for example, to present an offer that changes with the season. You should make sure that you do not cover too much area if you do not want to cover the window decoration behind the window pane. If you would like to have the lettering as a privacy screen, frosted glass, for example, is a great way to create a velvety matt surface that you can also stick lettering and logos on. It is important that you measure the surfaces well, so you avoid surprises if a font does not fit into the window.

It remains to be clarified whether the inscription is applied from inside or outside. If it is applied behind glass, the film is wonderfully protected against weather and vandalism. It should be noted that the colour and luminosity of the film can be reduced depending on the thickness of the glass pane. As a recommendation: If you want rich colours, it is better to apply the film from the outside. If you value durability and protected films, it is best to stick the adhesive film behind the glass (mirrored).

What should my shop window lettering achieve?

There are no limits to your creativity. As a determining element, the logo of the shop / the name of the company should be attached clearly visible. This will help passers-by to better remember your shop. Depending on the type and range of products, you should consider which things should be written in the shop window. Essential things are opening hours, owner and the logo. What does your shop / your store offer? Write clearly and legibly the corresponding products, services or offers in the appropriate place. If you communicate well what the shop offers, there is a better chance that people will want to see the shop from the inside. Let yourself be inspired by other lettering, often there are great examples near your shop.

Colour, font and own motifs

Due to the wide range of colours and fonts there are no limits to your creativity. It's best to simply try out different colours and fonts, combine them and create exciting lettering that attracts attention. In addition to the fonts you can order your own motifs, pictures and logos as adhesive foil. For this you need your motif or logo as a well-resolved file (e.g. vector file) which you can upload in our motif configurator. Depending on your wishes, you can have your motif printed on a rectangular foil or remove the background to get an exempted motif.

How do I affix the shop window lettering?

All our adhesive foils stick on smooth and dust-free surfaces. You should clean the surface and the corresponding areas thoroughly from dirt and dust. This way you avoid unattractive inclusions under the foil after sticking it on.

Adhesive lettering and motifs without background are delivered together on one transfer foil. You can stick them on as a whole and remove them after mounting. The individual components then remain on the boat wall and stick in the right place. (You do not have to stick on single letters). Flat adhesive foils (rectangular, round, etc.) are supplied on a protective backing paper which you can simply remove. Then you can stick the flat sticker on the desired place and press it on. You can use a squeegee, a credit card or similar as an aid.
