Overview

Our A3 magnetic sign printing is for anyone who needs a magnetic sign that looks sharp and lasts the job.

Getting the size right

For A3 magnetic sign printing: it comes in one size, A3. Measure the flat part of the door, avoiding handles, trims and deep curves. Magnets only grip on flat or gently curved steel.

Materials for A3 magnetic sign printing

The material is 0.9 mm magnetic sheeting. Extras in the options: 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.

Who orders these

Made 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.

Artwork and timing

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 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 A3 magnetic sign 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.

We charge £7.95 to send it anywhere on the UK mainland, and nothing once your goods come to £100 or more after discounts. The Highlands add £10, and addresses in Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, Scilly or the Isle of Wight get a quote. Full details are on the delivery page.

Also worth a look: vehicle magnets and everything in vehicle signs & magnets.

Questions

Quick answers about a3 magnetic sign printing.

Who handles my A3 magnetic sign order?

FatPrint takes the order and a person checks your file before anything is made. Each magnetic sign is made to order for you, then sent by courier with tracking. Got a question first? Ask in the box on this page and a person answers.

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 A3 magnetic sign 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, £15.09. What the page shows is what you pay for the goods at checkout.

Is anything added to the price of my A3 magnetic sign order at checkout?

Only delivery, where it applies. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout. The £15.09 starting price for your A3 magnetic sign order is the full price of the goods.

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 A3 magnetic sign 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.

What is an A3 magnetic sign made of?

900µ Magnetic Sheeting is the material, with the design printed in full colour. It comes in A3 (297 × 420 mm). Prices start at £15.09.

Asked by buyers

How much will A3 Magnetic Signs set me back?

£15.09 is where A3 Magnetic Signs start, set up as 900µ magnetic sheeting, A3 · 297 × 420 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).

If I buy A3 Magnetic Signs today, when will they leave you?

As the page first opens, the speeds for A3 Magnetic Signs 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.

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 £15.09 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. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

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, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 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 A3 (297 × 420 mm). Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

Which size of A3 Magnetic Signs 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: A3 (297 × 420 mm) at £15.09.

What are the measurements of A3 Magnetic Signs?

It measures A3 (297 × 420 mm) and costs from £15.09. If that is not quite right for your space, the A2 Magnetic Signs or the Taxi Magnetic 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.

Will these magnetic signs hold on any car or van?

A3 Magnetic Signs 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 A3 Magnetic Signs 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.

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. For reference, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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

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 £15.09, and any bank card will do. On its own the opening price of £15.09 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. For reference, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 mm).

Is there a quicker turnaround for these magnetic signs?

Work back from the day you need them. Express takes 4 working days to get A3 Magnetic Signs out, against 6 on Saver, and costs £17.49 on the opening option rather than £15.09. 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 A3 Magnetic 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 magnetic signs leave us after 6 working days; Express brings that down to 4. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

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 magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 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. Make the artwork for these magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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. For reference, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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

Roughly 3,508 pixels across and 4,961 down for an A3 (297 × 420 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.

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. Make the artwork for these magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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 A3 (297 × 420 mm). For reference, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 mm).

Do electricians buy A3 Magnetic Signs from you?

For rewires, testing and inspections, look under Electricians in the shop: A3 Magnetic Signs are listed there. Prices begin at £15.09; the size is A3 (297 × 420 mm); they are made from 900µ magnetic sheeting. People buying for that kind of work often add NCR Invoice Books or Asset 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 A3 Magnetic Signs 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 A3 Magnetic Signs be useful for gas engineers?

For gas installs and safety checks, look under Gas Engineers in the shop: A3 Magnetic Signs are listed there. Prices begin at £15.09; the size is A3 (297 × 420 mm); they are made from 900µ magnetic sheeting. People buying for that kind of work often add Door Hangers or Emergency Control Valve Labels. Put everything in one order and delivery is free at £100 or more.

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

Yes: A3 Magnetic Signs 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 £15.09. The size is A3 (297 × 420 mm). They are made from 900µ magnetic sheeting. Also in that section: Business Cards and Flyers. One basket can hold the lot, and delivery is free once the goods reach £100.

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

Yes, A3 Magnetic Signs 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 Taxi Magnetic Signs and A3 Magnetic Signs?

Set A3 Magnetic Signs beside Taxi Magnetic Signs and a few things differ. Sizes: only A3 (297 × 420 mm) on this page, and 5 on the other, the smallest A3 (297 × 420 mm). Opening price: £15.09 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.

Where do A3 Magnetic Signs and A2 Magnetic Signs differ?

Comparing A3 Magnetic Signs with A2 Magnetic Signs, this is what changes. Sizes: only A3 (297 × 420 mm) on this page, and only A2 (420 × 594 mm) on the other. Opening price: £15.09 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.

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 magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

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 magnetic signs cost from £15.09. For reference, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each magnetic sign is made to order for you. For reference, these magnetic signs measure A3 (297 × 420 mm).

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. Before delivery, these magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

Our club needs a big batch of magnetic 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 magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

Can I buy A3 Magnetic 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 magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

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 magnetic signs cost from £15.09.

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 magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 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 magnetic signs the same size as the one you order, such as A3 (297 × 420 mm). Nothing is printed ahead of time: each magnetic sign is made to order for you.

Which substrate is used on A3 Magnetic Signs?

It is the board or sheet your print is applied to. On A3 Magnetic Signs there is no choice to make: 900µ magnetic sheeting comes as standard. Your size, quantity and turnaround settle the final figure. Still torn between two? Type the question into the box on this page and a person will reply.

Which cut shape is used on A3 Magnetic Signs?

Choose the shape every piece is trimmed to. On A3 Magnetic Signs 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. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each magnetic sign is made to order for you.

What is the safest way to clean these magnetic signs?

For A3 Magnetic 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. Give the magnet's underside and the car panel a wipe as well.
