Flat cut letters

Flat cut letters in Manchester are created by qualified and highly experienced sign makers. Most companies want to present a clean and modern image, and flat cut letters convey just that kind of image.

This makes them popular for offices, both in reception areas and corridors. They are not the only places where you will see these letters though, as they are also found on fascia shop signs, in hospitals and schools.

They can be found in any building where information needs to be provided in a form that combines professionalism with style.

What are flat cut letters?

They are letters that are individually cut from stainless steel, aluminium or acrylic. Unlike built-up letters, flat cut ones are 2D. They are usually mounted directly to a wall surface, so that they do not physically stand out. However, they can also be mounted on pins that separate them from walls by anything from 10mm to 25mm. This leads to a 3D shadowed look.

Steel or aluminium letters can be given a brushed metal or mirror polish finish, depending on whether a matte or gloss look is preferred. Many of our clients choose acrylic flat cut letters though, because it can replicate the look of other materials at a lower cost.
