Looking for window graphics in Vancouver? We broker your request to independent, licensed local sign shops so you can compare quotes for window graphics without the cold-calling.
Window graphics turn the glass you already have into a working sign. For a Vancouver storefront that means vinyl lettering with your name, hours, and phone number, promotional decals, etched look frosted film for privacy, and full colour printed displays. It is one of the highest impact, lowest cost pieces of branding a retailer or office can add, because the glass is prime street level real estate that most businesses leave blank. Vancouver Signage Shop is a signage broker, not an installer, so we match your project with vetted local shops that print and apply window graphics and connect you straight to them, with no markup on the quote and no cost for the match.
Cut vinyl lettering is a solid colour vinyl weeded into shapes and applied straight to the glass, ideal for names, hours, and logos. Frosted or etched film mimics sandblasted glass and is the go to for meeting room privacy and for putting a logo on an office entrance. Perforated film, often called one-way vision, carries a full printed image on the outside while the small holes let staff and customers see out from the inside, which is why it suits large display windows. Full colour printed decals cover seasonal promotions and graphics.
Retailers use window lettering and decals for identity and sales, restaurants and cafes add menus and hours, and professional offices use frosted film for privacy without blocking light. Because the vinyl sits on your own glass, most interior facing window graphics do not trigger the exterior sign permit process, which makes them fast to install. If you want branding beyond the glass, compare wall graphics and murals for interiors or storefront and fascia signs for your building face.
Simple lettering and decals on your own window are quick. Large window signage can still count toward the sign area rules for your frontage under the City of Vancouver Sign By-law, so if you are covering a lot of glass it is worth checking, and a vetted local shop will flag it. Background on the rules is in the Vancouver sign permit guide. In Richmond, a voluntary city policy also encourages at least half of a sign’s content to be in English, which a local shop factors into your layout.
It depends on the type, the coverage area, and whether it is cut vinyl, frosted film, or full colour print. Typical published ranges start in the low hundreds of Canadian dollars for simple lettering and rise with size and complexity. We add nothing to that figure. Send your window dimensions and what you want to show and we will match you for a real quote.
Perforated film that shows a printed graphic outside while letting you see out from inside, ideal for big display windows.
Yes. Frosted or etched look film is commonly cut with a clear logo or pattern for offices and meeting rooms.
Interior applied lettering and decals usually do not, though large window signage can count toward your frontage sign area, so it is worth a quick check.
