Overview

Our fence top sign printing is for anyone who needs a street sign that looks sharp and lasts the job.

About the photo: it shows a Correx site safety sign on a hoarding as an example of the material. Your fence top sign is printed with your own design.

Sizes

For fence top sign printing: it comes in one format: fence tops. These are shaped for street furniture, so pick by the post or fence, not by the paper size.

Materials for fence top sign printing

The material is 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.

Who orders these

Right for fence top advertising at sports grounds and events. Event teams and councils use them on lamp posts, bollards and railings to direct crowds. Estate agents and property developers use them to point to a show home or open house.

Artwork and 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 10 working days from when your order and artwork are confirmed. Your fence top sign printing is made to order and dispatched 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.

Delivery to a UK mainland address is £7.95, or free once the order passes £100 after any discount (artwork fees are not counted). 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 fence top sign printing.

Which material is used for the fence top signs?

Full colour print on 3.5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 5mm Correx. Prices start at £54.04. For another material, send a request from the Get a quote page.

What is the turnaround on my fence top sign order?

Every service level (Saver, Standard and Express) takes 10 working days before it ships. The clock starts once your order is placed and the file is confirmed. Postage to the UK mainland is £7.95 per basket, not per item, and free when your goods total £100 or more.

Is anything added to the price of my fence top sign order at checkout?

Only delivery, where it applies. What the page shows is what you pay for the goods at checkout. The £54.04 starting price for your fence top sign order is the full price of the goods.

Will someone look at my file before the fence top 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 £54.04, 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 Fence Top Signs set me back?

£54.04 is where Fence Top Signs start, set up as yes, single 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).

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 £54.04 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.

Is there an extra charge for sending a large item like Fence Top Signs?

None. Fence Top Signs are sent as a normal parcel, because bollard covers, lamp-post wraps, fence tops and A-board triangles in street Correx are exempt from the £15 oversize rule. Send it to a UK mainland address for a flat £7.95, or for free when the goods in the basket add up to £100 or more after discounts; artwork and design charges do not count towards that. 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 Fence Top Signs today, when will they leave you?

As the page first opens, the speeds for Fence Top 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.

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. Material choices for Fence Top Signs: 3.5mm Correx, 5.5mm Correx or 5mm Correx.

Could I lay out these Correx 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 Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Fence Tops (3410 × 525 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 Fence Top 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 Fence Top Signs?

It measures Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm) and costs from £54.04. If that is not quite right for your space, the Correx Poster Boards or the Lamp Post Toblerone Signs 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 Fence Top Signs back down.

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. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £54.04.

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 £54.04, and any bank card will do. On its own the opening price of £54.04 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. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £54.04.

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 Fence Tops (3410 × 525 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 Fence Top Signs out, against 10 on Saver, and costs £62.59 on the opening option rather than £54.04. 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 Fence Top 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 £54.04.

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 Correx signs in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering.

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

Roughly 13,425 pixels across and 2,067 down for a Fence Tops (3410 × 525 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.

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 Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

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 reference, these Correx signs measure Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

Once I finish designing these Correx 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 Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

Which sides printed would you suggest for Fence Top 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 Fence Top 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.

Does the material option I choose make a difference to Fence Top 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. For reference, Fence Top Signs are sold at Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

Creasing on Fence Top Signs: how do the choices differ?

Creasing scores a line into heavier stock first, so the fold comes out neat and the ink does not split along it. For Fence Top 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.

Who uses Correx signs such as the Fence Top 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. For reference, Fence Top Signs are sold at Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

How many weeks will these Correx signs stay looking good outdoors?

Plan on Fence Top 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 Fence Top 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.

Can you explain the drilling setting for Fence Top 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. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £54.04.

Where do Fence Top Signs and Lamp Post Wraps differ?

Set Fence Top Signs beside Lamp Post Wraps and a few things differ. Sizes: only Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm) on this page, and 3 on the other, the smallest Raised Lamp Post Wrap. Opening price: £54.04 on this page and £16.14 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 Fence Top Signs, or would Lamp Post Toblerone Signs suit me better?

Comparing Fence Top Signs with Lamp Post Toblerone Signs, this is what changes. Sizes: only Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm) on this page, and only Lamp post toblerones on the other. Opening price: £54.04 on this page and £20.73 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 Fence Top Signs?

Comparing Fence Top Signs with Correx Poster Boards, this is what changes. Sizes: only Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm) on this page, and 5 on the other, the smallest Single Crown. Opening price: £54.04 on this page and £9.42 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. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £54.04.

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

Can I buy Fence Top 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. For reference, these Correx signs measure Fence Tops (3410 × 525 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. For reference, these Correx signs measure Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

Our club needs a big batch of Correx signs, or an odd size. Can you price it?

Our Get a quote page is the place, and it also handles delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands. For anything the page cannot do, tell us the size, number, material, date and postcode on Get a quote, add a file if you have one, and we email a price back. Before delivery, these Correx signs cost from £54.04.

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 £54.04.

I have never ordered printing before. Do I need to know the technical words?

No. A person on our team checks every file for size, bleed and resolution and tells you in plain words if anything needs changing. The free online designer also warns you about small text and blurry images before you finish. Or pick typesetting for £15 and we lay out your words and logo for you, with a first draft and two rounds of changes. Make the artwork for these Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

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 Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

Can I design these Correx 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 Correx signs the same size as the one you order, such as Fence Tops (3410 × 525 mm).

What is the safest way to clean these Correx signs?

For Fence Top 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.
