Lettering Options


Block font lettering is standard on all badges. Roman font is available upon request.

Standard case style of all text is uppercase. An option is available for lower or mixed case.

Colors for lettering are: None, Blue, Black, Brown, Gray, Maroon, Red, White or Yellow

Text Separaters are used to separate the text in a given line. They are available as Hollow Stars, Solid Stars or Solid Dots.

Hard Lettering: The words you specify for your badge design are engraved into the metal. Each letter is then filled with a colored enamel. The enamel is then baked to a hard glass finish and ground until flush with the surface of the badge. Running your finger over the letters you will feel no bumps or grooves. Hard lettering is a deluxe ordering option and tends to make the badge appear higher in quality and easier to read.

Soft Lettering: The words you specify in your badge design are engraved into the metal. The letters are filled with a colored enamel, which is then leveled and air cured. If you were to run your finger over the letters, you would feel bumps and grooves where the panel was engraved.

Standard Titles
Most all Badges, Panels and Insignias are available using Standard Titles. Examples of titles are; Assistant Chief, C.S.O. , Security, Inspector, EMT and Sheriff's Department etc. etc.. Since badges, panels and insignias come in all sizes and shapes and the text used in the titles is not all the same length or size, certain standard titles just won't work. Badges, panels and insignias have been designed to fit most Standard Titles. Limitations on these items are spelled out in the "Please Note section on each item. Also, it may be possible to create a custom title or completely design a badge from scratch that fits your needs. For a general list of Standard Titles please see the list below.

Panel Options
The panels on a badge are the flat surface of material that stands out where the actual text is inscribed with the title and agency name. Depending on the badge design the panels could be stamped into the shell or added after the badge shell is struck. If the badge's panels are stamped as part of the badge die there is no option to change the design.

If the badge is struck with out panels, the panels will be added and an option is available to add, change or adjust the panel style. This will be noted in the description of the badge if the option is available. Please see the selection of panels available for application to specified badges.
