A new business moving into a new location often times needs to put up some information on the windows. But often times it is not possible to adhere graphics to the exterior of windows because of the temperatures outside. If it is too cold, the adhesive will not stick to the window because the glass is just about, or is frozen. So we either wait for El'nino to warm it up, or the climate change to kick in. Until then, below are some ideas.

Reverse Cut Vinyl Applied Inside

This is a good way to tackle the problem! We can use your window lettering and cut it out in reverse so that when it is applied on the inside, it is right reading from outside. This is easily accomplished with opaque vinyl that we can die cut into just about any shape. We can use this method with basic vector art work like solid shapes.

Full Color Prints

If you have images that have gradients, like photos, we can print on a substrate and apply that on the inside of windows. This is done one of two ways. The first is with double stick tape attached to the top and bottom of the substrate and that is applied to the windows. The second is to apply a mounting film to the substrate which is then applied to the inside of the window. Various substrates can be used for this application. We even have material that is perforated so you can see through the material.

Window Shades

How about this idea! We can print on a mesh material full color graphics and apply to hardware to make inside window shades. This was done at Buckeye Equipment Sales on Broadview Rd in Parma. They were having trouble with sun blinding them and the heat generated was uncomfortable so the idea was to use printed window shades.

All of this assumes there is not a heavy tint on the windows. That obviously would be a visual hindrance. Window signs can be done in many ways depending on what you are trying to accomplish. We can help any type of business with window signs including retailers, HVAC and Heating companies, plumbers, electricians, small companies and definitely restaurants and bakeries.
