Overview
A street sign has one job: get noticed. Venue arrow sign printing here is full colour, edge to edge, made to order.
About the photo: it shows a wayfinding sign fixed to a wall as an example. Your venue arrow is printed on Correx with your own design.
How big?
For venue arrow sign printing: it comes in one format: venue arrows. These are shaped for street furniture, so pick by the post or fence, not by the paper size.
Venue arrow sign printing: material and finishing
We print it on 3.5mm Correx (light, waterproof fluted board). 3.5mm Correx is light, waterproof and easy to cable tie to posts and fences; 5mm is stiffer for bigger boards. Extras in the options: drilled holes for screwing it up and printing on one side or both.
Signs on lamp posts or highway furniture usually need the highway authority to agree, so check with the council first.
Where it works
Built for pointing visitors to venues, car parks and event entrances. Estate agents and property developers use them to point to a show home or open house. Event teams and councils use them on lamp posts, bollards and railings to direct crowds.
From file to doorstep
Got artwork? Upload it. No artwork? Use the online designer, or our paid artwork service (1 design, 2 rounds of changes). Either way a person looks over the file first, free. Standard production is 10 working days from when your order and artwork are confirmed. Every venue arrow sign printing order is printed to order and sent straight to you from the UK.
The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 require employers to use a safety sign where a risk cannot be removed or controlled some other way.
We charge £7.95 to send it anywhere on the UK mainland, and nothing once your goods come to £100 or more after discounts. Mainland Highlands postcodes add £10; Northern Ireland, the islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted. Full details are on the delivery page.

Questions
Quick answers about venue arrow sign printing.
Which material is used for the venue arrow signs?
Full colour print on 3.5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 5mm Correx. Prices start at £3.56. Need a different material? Ask through the question box on this page.
How long until my venue arrow sign order ships?
Every service level (Saver, Standard and Express) takes 10 working days before it ships. After that, allow 1 to 3 working days with the courier; you get tracking by email. Mainland UK delivery adds £7.95 to the basket, and nothing once the goods reach £100 after any discount code.
Will the price go up when I reach the checkout?
No. What the page shows is what you pay for the goods at checkout. The £3.56 starting price for your venue arrow sign order is the full price of the goods. Any delivery charge is shown before you pay.
Will someone look at my file before the venue arrow sign is printed?
Yes. A person checks every file you upload before printing starts, looking at resolution, bleed and whether the text will come out cleanly. Paid help is there too: a clean layout from your text and logo (£15), a design from your brief (£35) or a logo redraw (£30), each with one first draft and two rounds of changes.
Can I order several Correx signs at once?
Yes. Anything from 1 up to 90 is priced on this page. The price per piece usually drops as the number goes up, which helps clubs and shops ordering in bulk. Goods worth £100 or more travel free to a UK mainland address; below that, delivery is a flat £7.95 for the whole order.
Can I check the cost before I order?
It starts at £3.56, the cheapest combination, and changes as you pick options. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout. Mainland UK delivery adds £7.95 to the basket, and nothing once the goods reach £100 after any discount code.
Asked by buyers
How much will Venue Arrow Signs set me back?
£3.56 is where Venue Arrow Signs start, set up as no, double Sided and 3.5mm Correx on the Saver speed. Change the size, material, extras, quantity or speed and the total on the page moves straight away. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout, with delivery the only thing that can be added. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted).
If I buy Venue Arrow Signs today, when will they leave you?
As the page first opens, the speeds for Venue Arrow Signs are Saver 10 working days, Standard 10 and Express 10, counting Monday to Friday and skipping bank holidays. The count begins once we have your order and a file ready to print. A bigger size or a different material can move it by a day either way; each speed shows its own days as you choose. Tracking arrives by email on the day it ships, and the courier usually takes one to three working days from there.
Is delivery ever free?
It is £7.95 for the whole order, not per item, and free once the goods reach £100 after any discount code; design or artwork charges are left out of that £100. On its own the opening price of £3.56 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero. A mainland Highlands postcode puts a single £10 on the order. Northern Ireland has its delivery priced before you pay, and so do the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man.
I cannot design at all. Can someone make the artwork for me?
Yes. When you choose the Artwork option you can pick from: send your own finished file (no charge), we set your words and logo on a tidy layout, called typesetting (£15), we design it from your brief (£35), we redraw a blurry or low quality logo as sharp vector art (£30) or we create a brand new logo (£50). Each fee is fixed, sits as its own line in your basket and covers every item on that line. Typesetting and design from a brief each come with one first draft and two rounds of changes. Make the artwork for these Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
What exactly is Correx board?
Correx is fluted polypropylene: two thin, flat plastic sheets held apart by small ribs, a bit like plastic cardboard. That makes it light, surprisingly stiff for its weight and fully waterproof. Board choices for Venue Arrow Signs: 3.5mm, 5mm or 5.5mm Correx. It is the everyday board for short-term outdoor signs, from fete arrows and For Sale boards to election posters and site notices.
What are the measurements of Venue Arrow Signs?
It measures Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm) and costs from £3.56. If that is not quite right for your space, the Fence Top Signs or the Correx Poster Boards may fit better. Spend £100 on goods and mainland delivery is free; below that it is £7.95. Other settings on the page, such as quantity, adjust the total as you go.
Are we allowed to cable tie these Correx signs to lamp posts for our event?
Ask the council first. Roads, and the posts, bollards and railings beside them, are theirs, and many councils need a licence for signs there or do not allow them at all. For a school fair, a car boot sale or a club open day, fences and gates on land you have permission to use are the easy option. Once the day is over, bring all Venue Arrow Signs back down.
Could the total go up after I reach the checkout?
The only thing that can join the goods price is delivery; the price you see is the price you pay at checkout. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted). If you pick a paid design option, it sits in the basket as a separate line with its own fee, so every penny is listed before you pay. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
We are signposting a sponsored walk. How many Correx signs will we need?
Go round the route and count each turning where someone could go wrong, then add one for the start and one for the finish. Order a handful extra in case some get knocked over or go missing. You can pick anything from 1 to 90 here and the price covers the whole lot, so try two or three quantities and compare what each sign works out at. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each Correx sign is made to order for you.
Can a private person buy a single Correx sign?
Yes. One is enough, and you do not need a business name or an account to check out. The opening price is £3.56, and any bank card will do. On its own the opening price of £3.56 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero. A person still checks your file before it is printed, just as for a big order.
Is there a minimum quantity for these Correx signs?
The smallest order is 1 and the largest listed is 90; the list starts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 and carries on from there. The price on the page covers every item in that quantity. To compare two quantities fairly, split each total by its number. A bigger run than the list allows can be priced separately on our Get a quote page. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Is there a quicker turnaround for these Correx signs?
Work back from the day you need them. Express takes 10 working days to get Venue Arrow Signs out, against 10 on Saver, and costs £4.13 on the opening option rather than £3.56. Add up to three working days for the courier, plus any time you need to finish the file. Cutting it fine? Put your date in the question box before you order.
I live in the Scottish Highlands. Will Venue Arrow Signs cost more to send?
The whole UK is covered. Outside it, sadly, we cannot deliver. Mainland addresses in the Highlands pay one extra £10 on the order, even when delivery would otherwise be free. For Northern Ireland, and for the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man, we tell you the delivery cost before you pay, so message us your postcode on the Contact page or our Get a quote page. Choose Saver and these Correx signs leave us after 10 working days. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
Our wording is not finished yet. Can I still pay now and send it later?
Yes. Pay now and add the file afterwards: uploading after ordering is allowed, so you do not have to wait for the final version. If a volunteer, friend or designer is preparing it, they can send the finished file to you to upload, or get in touch through our Contact page quoting your order number. Nothing goes to print until the file arrives and has been checked, so if there is a date to hit, get the artwork over as soon as you can. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
How many pixels does a photo need to print well on these Correx signs?
Roughly 6,496 pixels across and 2,480 down for a Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm) design, which is 300 dpi. Things read at arm's length need that 300 dpi at full size to stay crisp. Text and logos are safest as vector art, which never goes fuzzy. Pictures saved from a website or social media are nearly always too small, and our file check will point out any that could print blurred.
Which file formats can I upload?
A PDF made at the size you ordered works best, with the fonts embedded or turned into outlines. AI, EPS and SVG are fine too, as are high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF images. Word, PowerPoint or Canva designs can be used, but save them out as a full quality PDF where you can. Attach up to 3 files of up to 25 MB each on the product page, or order first and send them afterwards; we email you a link. For these Correx signs, the material can be 5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 3.5mm Correx.
I am not a designer. What if the file I send turns out to be unusable?
You will not be left guessing. Each uploaded file is opened and looked over by a member of the team, and problems such as low-resolution pictures, no bleed or the wrong page size are sent back to you to fix before printing. If fixing it sounds like a chore, choose typesetting for £15: we lay out your text and logo, show you a first draft, then make up to two rounds of changes. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Does the creasing option I choose make a difference to Venue Arrow Signs?
Creasing scores a line into heavier stock first, so the fold comes out neat and the ink does not split along it. For Venue Arrow Signs the list runs yes or no. Try each one on the page: the figure changes as you click, so the cost of every choice is clear.
Which material would you suggest for Venue Arrow Signs?
The material option has 3 settings: 5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 3.5mm Correx. It is what your design gets printed onto. Switch between them on the page and the total updates straight away, so you can see what each one adds. For these Correx signs, the material can be 5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 3.5mm Correx.
Can you explain the sides printed setting for Venue Arrow Signs?
One side means the design appears on the front only. Two sides puts print on both faces, handy when people approach from either direction, for example a flag on a pole or a sign that faces two ways. For Venue Arrow Signs the list runs single Sided or double Sided. Try each one on the page: the figure changes as you click, so the cost of every choice is clear.
Who uses Correx signs such as the Venue Arrow Signs, and for what?
Anyone with a short-lived message for people passing: a school fete, a church open day, a club car boot sale, a campaign, or directions round a fun run or a road closed for an event. Correx is light, cheap and shrugs off rain, so it suits signs that stay up for days or weeks and then come down. Ask permission before tying anything to lamp posts, railings or bollards on public land. For these Correx signs, the material can be 5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 3.5mm Correx. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each Correx sign is made to order for you.
How many weeks will these Correx signs stay looking good outdoors?
Plan on Venue Arrow Signs lasting for weeks or months, not years. Rain does the board no harm, as it cannot rot or absorb water; sunshine and handling are what slowly wear the print. If you want a sign to stay up permanently outdoors, Dibond lasts far longer.
How do Correx boards go up on railings, or on a stake in the grass?
Ask for drilled holes when ordering Venue Arrow Signs, then loop cable ties through them and round the railings. For a lawn or verge, slide a cane or stake into one of the flutes at the lower edge and knock it into the ground. Secure the top and the bottom, two ties each, so the board cannot flap about in a breeze.
How do I pick the right drilling for Venue Arrow Signs?
The drilling option has 2 settings: yes or no. With drilling, the corners arrive with holes already made, so the board can go straight up with screws or cable ties and you never need to get the drill out. Switch between them on the page and the total updates straight away, so you can see what each one adds. For these Correx signs, the material can be 5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 3.5mm Correx. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Where do Venue Arrow Signs and Fence Top Signs differ?
Set Venue Arrow Signs beside Fence Top Signs and a few things differ. Sizes: only Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm) on this page, and only Fence Tops on the other. Opening price: £3.56 on this page and £51.19 on the other. Go by the spot it is going in and how long it needs to last, then open both pages and compare the live totals.
Should I get Venue Arrow Signs, or would Lamp Post Toblerone Signs suit me better?
Comparing Venue Arrow Signs with Lamp Post Toblerone Signs, this is what changes. Sizes: only Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm) on this page, and only Lamp post toblerones on the other. Opening price: £3.56 on this page and £19.63 on the other. Go by the spot it is going in and how long it needs to last, then open both pages and compare the live totals.
How would I decide between Correx Poster Boards and Venue Arrow Signs?
Comparing Venue Arrow Signs with Correx Poster Boards, this is what changes. Sizes: only Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm) on this page, and 5 on the other, the smallest Single Crown. Opening price: £3.56 on this page and £8.92 on the other. Go by the spot it is going in and how long it needs to last, then open both pages and compare the live totals.
I am not sure which options to pick for these Correx signs. Can someone advise me?
Of course. Tell us three things: where these Correx signs will go, whether it is for one day or for years, and your deadline. Send that through the question box on this page or the Contact page, and a member of the team will suggest options. If what you need is outside the options listed, the Get a quote page lets you describe it and get a price. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Can I swap my file once I have paid?
It depends on timing. Until production begins, a new file can replace the old one, or the order can be cancelled with a full refund; once it has begun, nothing can be changed. Message us straight away on the Contact page with your order number. Items printed exactly as supplied or designed do not count as faulty, so check names, numbers and dates first. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
We need a few different designs. Do they each need their own order?
One checkout covers the lot. Add a basket line for every design, attach the right file to each, then pay once. You pay a single delivery charge of £7.95 for the whole order, or nothing if the goods add up to £100 or more. Repeating one design on another line? Choose the artwork choice that points to a file already in the basket, and no second design fee is charged. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
Who looks after me once I have bought Venue Arrow Signs?
You deal with FatPrint the whole way through. Once you order, somebody checks the artwork, Venue Arrow Signs are printed specially for your order, and a courier delivers them with a tracking link by email. Need to ask something along the way? Use the question box here or the Contact page and a real person answers.
Can I buy Venue Arrow Signs and other products in the same basket?
Yes. Different products, sizes and quantities can all sit in one basket, each as its own line with its own options. Delivery is charged once for the whole order, £7.95 to the UK mainland, and it is free when the goods reach £100 after discount codes. If two items share a design, choose the option to reuse artwork from another basket item and there is no second artwork fee. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
Do I have to register before I can buy?
No. Guest checkout is fine, and card payments go through Stripe, so a debit card or a credit card both work. If you choose to open an account while checking out, My Account keeps your past orders. Guest or not, you get an email confirming the order and another with tracking once it is sent. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Can I send these Correx signs back if I no longer need them?
Not for a change of mind. These Correx signs are made for your order, and goods made to your specification fall outside the 14-day cancellation right (reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). You can still cancel and get all your money back before production begins. Anything faulty, damaged or wrong is covered by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and we reprint it or refund you. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Our treasurer needs a receipt for the accounts. What do we get?
Every order gets a confirmation email listing what was bought, the options chosen and the amount paid, and a club, school or small firm can file that as its record of payment. What you pay for these Correx signs is the price shown on the page plus any delivery charge, nothing more. If your accounts need a particular kind of invoice, ask through the Contact page before you order and we will tell you what we can provide. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
Next year we will want the same Correx sign again. Is reordering easy?
Yes. Treat it as a fresh order of the same item with the same settings, and attach the file you used last time. Keep a copy of the print file in a shared folder so whoever orders next year can find it. Change any details that have moved on, such as a new email address or this year's date, before uploading. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each Correx sign is made to order for you. For reference, these Correx signs measure Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
Which cards do you take, and is paying online safe?
You pay by debit or credit card when you check out, and you can do it as a guest without making an account. Card details are handled by Stripe, a specialist payment company, so the full card number never reaches us or sits on our system. Printing starts after payment goes through and your file has been checked. If your group needs a price agreed before anyone pays, ask for a quote instead. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
The parcel turned up damaged. How do I sort it out?
Look everything over when it arrives. If something is damaged or missing, contact us within 48 hours through the contact form, with your order number and photos of both the item and the packaging. Please keep hold of it until we reply; we then sort out a reprint or a refund. Your legal rights stay the same, as the returns page sets out. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £3.56.
Will my logo colours come out the same as on screen?
Very close, but not always identical. A screen glows, print reflects light, so a small difference is normal. Sending CMYK artwork keeps it nearest; RGB is changed to CMYK before printing and the brightest greens, blues and oranges can look a touch flatter. For an exact brand colour, give us the Pantone reference and we get as close as the material allows. Make the artwork for these Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Venue Arrows (550 × 210 mm).
What is the safest way to clean these Correx signs?
For Venue Arrow Signs, warm water with a drop of washing-up liquid and a soft cloth, then rinse and dry. Avoid solvents, scouring pads and harsh cleaning products, as they can dull the print or lift it. Keep any spare boards lying flat to stop them bowing.
