Perforated Window Decals

What sizes are available?

You can design custom Perforated Window Decals for online printing in any size. When you enter your desired dimensions in the Finished Size fields on the product page, a notification will alert you if they are outside our parameters. In that case, you can request a Custom Quote.

What decal stock is available? What will it adhere to?

Our custom decals are printed on 70/30 perforated window film, which means 70% of the material is solid and 30% is dots. This film is recommended for outdoor use on glass surfaces like storefront or business windows. It features adhesive on the back, so after you print your own decals, you can install and easily remove or reposition them with little or no residue.

Perforated window decals

Can you see my graphic on both sides?

No. These decals are printing on what’s known as security film, which shows your graphic on one side only. When adhered to the outside of your storefront window, your graphic shows to passers-by, while from the inside, the decal provides a sunshade-like appearance you can see through to the outside. Your graphic will not show on the inside. The vibrant print also reflects sunlight so customers can see your message outdoors from any angle.

Can these be die cut into various shapes?

Yes. Pricing includes a simple or complex digital die cut at no additional charge (be sure to provide a dieline of your artwork for specific shapes). Choose simple die cutting for shapes like circles, ovals, squares and rectangles. Choose complex die cutting for any shapes or cuts more intricate than that.

How do I install window decals?

Easily! As a customer-focused online printer, we have step-by-step instructions here: How to Install Window Clings.

How long do they last?

About two years. The lifespan of your decals depends on the usage, environment and proper care. When adhering your decals, we recommend a minimum temperature of at least 60°F.

Windows must be clean to assure adequate product bond. We do not recommend using solvent or ammonia-based glass cleaner.

When not in use, store your decals vertically in their original packaging (if possible) and in an environment that’s at least 70°F.

Can I create multiple perforated decals in the same order?

Yes. With our Versions feature, you can print various designs to differ content on multiple window decals. Our online printing services require your decals be the same size, but your designs and content can change as much as you like. Learn more: Versions
