Custom Garage Door Stickers for homes, workshops and lock-ups

Garage door sticker guide

Graphics that suit your type of garage door

How a garage door opens decides where a sticker can go. Start with your door type, then think about the weather it faces.

Why choose custom garage door stickers?

Garage doors are often the plainest feature on the front of a property. A sticker adds a house number visitors can actually find, a name for a workshop or simply a design that lifts a dull stretch of metal.

For small businesses working from a unit or lock-up, the garage door is the sign. A bold name and phone number on a roller shutter tells passing customers what happens inside, even when it is closed.

Stickers are also the practical way to stop people blocking access. A clear keep clear notice at eye level is far harder to ignore than a small sign on the wall.

Popular uses for garage door stickers

Garage door stickers are ordered for:

• House numbers and names – easier to spot for deliveries and visitors.
• Workshops and trade units – business names, services and contact numbers.
• Access notices – keep clear, no parking and vehicles in constant use.
• Security notices – CCTV and alarm information.
• Decorative designs – stripes, patterns and themed graphics for homes.

Materials, shapes and sizes

Garage door stickers are printed on outdoor vinyl, which copes with rain and temperature changes. Doors facing strong sun get the hardest wear, and long exposure can fade any print, so ask about a laminate for south-facing doors.

Lettering meant to be read from the road should be big and bold. Cut lettering looks sharp on painted metal, while printed panels carry logos and multi-colour designs.

Measure the flat areas you want to use and note the ribs, grooves or panel joints, as these decide how a design must be laid out.

Up-and-over, sectional and roller doors

Up-and-over doors swing up as one panel, so they are the easiest to decorate. Stickers can go almost anywhere on the flat face, although deep ribs need designs placed between them rather than across them.

Sectional doors fold at hinged joints as they rise. Keep each graphic within a single panel, or have the design split so it meets at a joint, because vinyl stretched across a hinge will tear.

Roller shutters coil tightly around a drum, which bends and rubs anything on the slats. Small stickers placed on individual slats fare better than large graphics, and it is worth telling us your door type before ordering.

How garage door stickers help your home or business

At home, a readable number saves couriers and guests from hunting along the street, and a tidy design improves the look of the front of the house.

For a workshop, the door works as free signage whenever it is closed, and a clear keep clear notice protects the access your business depends on.
