Overview

Vehicle magnet printing without the faff: you choose the size and finish, the price shows as you go, and we print it to order.

How big?

Vehicle magnet printing comes like this: 3 sizes, from A4 up to A2. Measure the flat part of the door, avoiding handles, trims and deep curves. Magnets only grip on flat or gently curved steel.

Vehicle magnet printing: material and finishing

The material is 0.9 mm magnetic sheeting. You can also add cutting to shape.

Clean and dry the door and the back of the magnet before fitting, and take it off every week or so to wipe underneath.

Where it works

Right for temporary vehicle branding for work and events. Small firms use them when the van is leased and cannot be wrapped or stickered. Tradespeople, taxi drivers and delivery drivers use them to turn a private car into a work vehicle for the day.

Timing

Send a print-ready PDF, build it in the online designer, or pay for our artwork service (you get 1 design and 2 rounds of changes). Whichever you pick, a person checks the file before it prints. Standard production is 5 working days from when your order and artwork are confirmed. Express gets it done from 4 working days. Saver takes 6 and is there if you are not in a rush. Your vehicle magnet printing is made to order and dispatched from the UK.

Keep magnets off lights and number plates: under the Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001 plates must stay fully visible.

Postage is £7.95 to the UK mainland and free over £100, worked out after discounts and not counting artwork fees. 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 vehicle magnet printing.

Who looks after the order once I have paid?

FatPrint does. Your artwork is checked by a person first, your vehicle magnet is made to order, and a courier brings it to you with email tracking. If anything needs changing, message us from the Contact page.

Is there a discount if I buy more?

Usually, yes: the more you order, the less each one tends to cost. Anything from 1 up to 250 is priced on this page for your vehicle magnet order. Spend £100 on goods (design fees are not counted) and UK mainland delivery is free; otherwise it is £7.95 once.

How do I find out what my magnetic sign will cost?

Choose the options on this page and the total updates straight away. It opens on the cheapest combination, £13.45. The figure on the page is the one you pay at checkout.

Will the price go up when I reach the checkout?

No. The figure on the page is the one you pay at checkout. The £13.45 starting price for your vehicle magnet order is the full price of the goods. Any delivery charge is shown before you pay.

Do you check the design I upload?

Every upload is looked at by a person first: resolution, bleed and text size all get checked. If anything needs fixing on your vehicle magnet order, we tell you before it is made. 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.

Which options does this magnetic sign have?

7 sizes from A4 (210 × 297 mm) to 1000 × 600 mm, substrate (900µ magnetic sheeting), profile cut (no) and cut shape (square cut edges). Every combination is priced on this page, from £13.45.

Asked by buyers

How much will Vehicle Magnets set me back?

£13.45 is where Vehicle Magnets start, set up as 900µ magnetic sheeting, A4 · 210 × 297 mm and no 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).

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 £13.45 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.

If I buy Vehicle Magnets today, when will they leave you?

As the page first opens, the speeds for Vehicle Magnets are Express 4 working days, Standard 5 and Saver 6, 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.

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. Prefer to do it yourself? The online designer is free to use. For reference, Vehicle Magnets are listed in 7 sizes, the smallest being A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Could I lay out these magnetic signs myself on your website?

Yes. Start the designer from this page, choose a layout to begin with, then drop in your text, logo and photos and drag them where you want. It checks as you go and warns you about leftover sample text, lettering that is too small, anything outside the safe area and images too low in resolution, all before you finish. Designing and previewing costs nothing. The watermark you see on screen is never printed; once you finish, it goes into the basket. Make the artwork for these magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Which is the smallest and which the biggest magnetic sign I can order here?

Smallest: A4 (210 × 297 mm), from £13.45. Biggest: 1000 × 600 mm, from £27.54. 5 more are listed in between, each priced on the cheapest options. Need something in between? Type in your own width and height, anywhere from 100 mm to 1000 by 600 mm. Not sure which? Mark the space out with tape or string first and stand back to look.

Which size of Vehicle Magnets will fit my car door?

Run a tape measure over the flat area of the door, keeping clear of handles, creases and trim, then pick a size that fits within it with a bit of room to spare. Listed sizes: A4 (210 × 297 mm) at £13.45, A3 (297 × 420 mm) at £15.09, 450 × 300 mm at £15.37, 600 × 300 mm at £16.53, A2 (420 × 594 mm) at £18.35 and 900 × 450 mm at £22.44. A custom size is possible too, up to 1000 × 600 mm.

Will these magnetic signs hold on any car or van?

Vehicle Magnets hold only on steel. Aluminium, plastic and fibreglass panels will not take a magnet, so try a fridge magnet on the spot first. Steer clear of creases, trim strips, badges and the edges of doors: every part of the sign has to lie flat against the steel, leaving no gaps. Fit it to a clean, dry panel with no wax on it, smoothing it down from the centre out.

What looking after do these magnetic signs need?

Once a week or so, take the sign off and wipe and dry the car panel and the magnet's underside, so damp and grit cannot collect beneath. That one habit keeps Vehicle Magnets holding well. Car washes and magnets do not mix, so take the sign off first. Between uses keep it flat, or curved round something smooth, but never folded. Before a long motorway run, check it is lying flat and holding firmly.

Can a private person buy a single magnetic sign?

Yes. One is enough, and you do not need a business name or an account to check out. The opening price is £13.45, and any bank card will do. On its own the opening price of £13.45 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.

Could you price a 600 × 300 mm magnetic sign for me?

From £16.53, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each magnetic sign is made to order for you. Sizes for these magnetic signs go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to 1000 × 600 mm, 7 in all.

Is there a minimum quantity for these magnetic signs?

The smallest order is 1 and the largest listed is 250; 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. Sizes for these magnetic signs go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to 1000 × 600 mm, 7 in all.

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. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £13.45.

And the largest magnetic sign, 1000 × 600 mm: how much is that one?

From £27.54, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. Add £7.95 for UK mainland delivery, or nothing at all once the goods reach £100. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £13.45.

I live in the Scottish Highlands. Will Vehicle Magnets 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 magnetic signs leave us after 6 working days; Express brings that down to 4. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £13.45.

Is there a quicker turnaround for these magnetic signs?

Work back from the day you need them. Express takes 4 working days to get Vehicle Magnets out, against 6 on Saver, and costs £15.60 on the opening option rather than £13.45. 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.

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. If you have no file, you can build the design for these magnetic signs in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering.

Will anyone look at my file before it is printed?

Every file gets a human check for size, bleed and resolution, and we contact you about any problem before printing. With the online designer, what you see on screen is what gets printed. Nobody can know your details better than you, so double-check names, numbers and dates: we print what is supplied, and work begins once the order and file are confirmed. Sizes for these magnetic signs go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to 1000 × 600 mm, 7 in all.

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. If you have no file, you can build the design for these magnetic signs in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering.

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. Sizes for these magnetic signs go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to 1000 × 600 mm, 7 in all.

How many pixels does a photo need to print well on these magnetic signs?

Roughly 3,937 pixels across and 2,362 down for a 1000 × 600 mm design, which is 100 dpi. That is plenty for something people read from a few metres away; anywhere from 100 to 150 dpi at full size will do. 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.

Once I finish designing these magnetic signs online, is the file mine to keep?

Yes. Order printing with an online design and a full resolution PDF comes with it; after payment you can download it from your confirmation email or from My Account. Just want the file? Finish the design and buy the print-ready PDF on its own for £9.99. As digital content, it cannot be cancelled once the download begins. Make the artwork for these magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm).

I work with air conditioning and refrigeration engineers. Are these magnetic signs something we could use?

Yes: Vehicle Magnets sit in our Air Con & Refrigeration section, next to other things air conditioning and refrigeration engineers buy for air con and fridge servicing. Prices begin at £13.45. 7 sizes are listed, starting at A4 (210 × 297 mm). They are made from 900µ magnetic sheeting. Also in that section: A4 Magnetic Signs and NCR Pads. One basket can hold the lot, and delivery is free once the goods reach £100.

Do electricians buy Vehicle Magnets from you?

For rewires, testing and inspections, look under Electricians in the shop: Vehicle Magnets are listed there. Prices begin at £13.45; 7 sizes are listed, starting at A4 (210 × 297 mm); they are made from 900µ magnetic sheeting. People buying for that kind of work often add Do Not Use / Out of Service Labels or Business & Address Labels. Put everything in one order and delivery is free at £100 or more.

I sell at weekend markets. Can these magnetic signs go on my own car just for the day?

Yes, that is exactly what Vehicle Magnets are good at. Put the sign on for the market, take it off when you get home, and the car is your own again. It needs a flat steel panel to hold, and a quick wipe of the car panel and the magnet's underside each time keeps grit from building up. Store it flat between outings rather than folded.

Would Vehicle Magnets be useful for gas engineers?

For gas installs and safety checks, look under Gas Engineers in the shop: Vehicle Magnets are listed there. Prices begin at £13.45; 7 sizes are listed, starting at A4 (210 × 297 mm); they are made from 900µ magnetic sheeting. People buying for that kind of work often add Self-Inking Company Stamps or Door Hangers. Put everything in one order and delivery is free at £100 or more.

Is it safe to use these magnetic signs on a long motorway run?

Yes, Vehicle Magnets are fine at speed as long as every edge sits flat on clean steel. The danger is wind catching a raised edge and peeling the sign away. Run a finger round the edges before every long journey and after the car has been washed. Once a sign cracks or starts to curl, replace it.

How would I decide between A3 Magnetic Signs and Vehicle Magnets?

Set Vehicle Magnets beside A3 Magnetic Signs and a few things differ. Sizes: 7 on this page, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm), and only A3 (297 × 420 mm) on the other. Opening price: £13.45 on this page and £15.09 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 Vehicle Magnets, or would A2 Magnetic Signs suit me better?

Comparing Vehicle Magnets with A2 Magnetic Signs, this is what changes. Sizes: 7 on this page, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm), and only A2 (420 × 594 mm) on the other. Opening price: £13.45 on this page and £18.35 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.

Where do Vehicle Magnets and A4 Magnetic Signs differ?

Comparing Vehicle Magnets with A4 Magnetic Signs, this is what changes. Sizes: 7 on this page, the smallest A4 (210 × 297 mm), and only A4 (210 × 297 mm) on the other. Opening price: £13.45 on this page and £13.45 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.

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 magnetic 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 magnetic signs cost from £13.45.

Next year we will want the same magnetic 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. For online designs, the print-ready PDF from the original paid order is waiting in My Account and your confirmation email. Change any details that have moved on, such as a new email address or this year's date, before uploading. Sizes for these magnetic signs go from A4 (210 × 297 mm) at the small end to 1000 × 600 mm, 7 in all.

I am not sure which options to pick for these magnetic signs. Can someone advise me?

Of course. Tell us three things: where these magnetic 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. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £13.45.

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 and the print files of anything you designed online. Guest or not, you get an email confirming the order and another with tracking once it is sent. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each magnetic sign is made to order for you.

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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each magnetic sign is made to order for you.

Which mistakes does the online designer warn me about?

Spelling is the one thing it cannot judge, so read that yourself. It does catch placeholder words nobody changed, tiny lettering, anything drifting beyond the safe area or near the trim, blurry logos and photos, and objects covering words. Issues that would spoil the print stop you finishing until they are sorted; lighter warnings you may choose to accept. Make the artwork for these magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Can I design these magnetic signs first and show the committee before we pay?

Yes. The online designer is free to use, so you can build the design, look at it on screen and share it round before anyone commits. The preview carries a watermark on screen only; it never appears on the printed item. When everyone is happy, finish the design and order. What you see is what gets printed, so check names, dates and numbers together first. Make the artwork for these magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Which substrate is used on Vehicle Magnets?

It is the board or sheet your print is applied to. On Vehicle Magnets there is no choice to make: 900µ magnetic sheeting comes as standard. Your size, quantity and turnaround settle the final figure. Switch between the options on the page and the total moves with you, so comparing costs is quick.

Which cut shape is used on Vehicle Magnets?

Choose the shape every piece is trimmed to. On Vehicle Magnets there is no choice to make: square cut edges comes as standard. Your size, quantity and turnaround settle the final figure. The size table further up the page lists every size next to its price, so you can weigh up two sizes side by side.

What details should go on these magnetic signs for a small business or club?

Start with your name and logo, a few words on what you do, then your phone number, email, website and the area you cover. On a car or van, make the phone number the largest thing after the name, because people only glimpse it as you pass. Less is more: a handful of big, clear words is easier to read than a long list. You will also find these magnetic signs in our Plumbers & Heating Engineers, Mechanics & Garages, Gas Engineers, Electricians and Air Con & Refrigeration sections. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £13.45.
