LETTERS
black lettersThe letters are normally painted silver, gold or white. However we occasionally do ivory, black, dark blue, mid blue, emerald, purple, salmon pink or even leave the letters unpainted. We can also blast the background away leaving the letters raised and unpainted. When leaving letters raised we must use bold fonts without any fine line. For a selection of fonts - CLICK HERE Further fonts can also be seen on the Gallery Page. Letter size is normally adjusted to suit the sign, but if you have something particular in mind - just put it on the order form or send us your ideas as a sketch, image or word document.

BORDERS
We can add a line border with indented or square corners at a cost of £5.50. Another interesting technique is the border in relief where the slate around the outside of the sign is blasted away leaving the required shape in the middle. The cost of a border in relief is £8.25     Decorative borders - unpainted £5.50, painted £8.50
When the letters are raised and unpainted there is no extra cost for surrounding or line borders. We can use decorative borders for raised and unpainted.

Font Perpetua Titling MG. The slate around
the outside has been blasted away leaving a shaped border in relief. Picture from

HOLES
It is difficult to drill holes into slate as it requires plenty of water to keep the slate cool. We can drill the holes for you @ £1.1 per hole. 2 holes are ideal on the 100mm high slate and 4 holes on larger slates.
If you do decide to use one of the many adhesives now available we would suggest additional support is used for the largest signs.
We can recommend CT1 all purpose adhesive This can hold signs up to 10kg

 

PICTURES

We can include simple pictures on the signs. We have a selection CLICK HERE - or you can send in your own artwork - It must be a silhouette style image without any very fine lines or shades. The cost is £2.75 per standard image, £8.25 for vector artwork or £16.50 for a jpg or other bitmap image.
