Custom Window Decals
I was at the gym yesterday, sweaty and pudgy, trying to mind my business on the lat pulldown when some shirtless Greek statue starts doing pull-ups directly in front of me. I stormed over to the front desk like, "Uh, yeah, hi, excuse me, I just couldn't help but notice the multiple window decals that say shirts are required?" Realizing halfway through I sound like the HOA president of Planet Fitness. Those window decals—bold, impossible to miss, the kind that make you stop and actually read them.
The desk guy just stared at me. "He's a personal trainer." Oh cool, so the rules don't apply to people with abs, got it. I stood there for another thirty seconds, committed to my complaint, before shuffling back to my machine. But those window decals? Still thinking about them. Custom window decals from SF Bay Signs hook people in before they even walk through your door, which is more than I can say for my gym membership.

Two Types of Custom Window Decals
We offer two effective styles of custom window decals: perforated signs and static window clings. Both options are easy to install and maintain, and both can be fully customized to meet your specific needs.
Perforated Signs
Perforated window signs are made from durable mesh material that allows visibility from the inside while displaying your graphics on the outside. These signs use a mild adhesive backing and are weather-resistant, making them suitable for both storefront windows and vehicle applications. The perforated design maintains natural light and visibility without compromising your message.
Static Clings
Static window clings are made from a thin, durable plastic film that adheres to glass surfaces using static electricity rather than adhesive. This eliminates residue and makes them easy to remove and reposition. Static clings are ideal for indoor applications and can last for years with proper care. They're particularly useful for temporary promotions or seasonal displays.
Design and Customization Options
Our custom window decals are available in a wide range of sizes to fit virtually any application. Whether you need coverage for an entire storefront window or a small logo for a vehicle, our high-resolution printing technology ensures sharp, vibrant graphics. We can accommodate designs from as small as business card size up to several feet in width and height.
We print on 3.4 mil thick vinyl using UV-resistant inks for long-lasting durability. You can choose from various finishing options including round corners, square corners, or custom die-cut shapes. Lamination is available for additional protection against scratches and fading.
Ordering Process
To order, simply select your desired size and quantity. Upload your design file or use our online design tool to create your graphics. Our production team will review your artwork to ensure optimal print quality. Most orders are processed quickly, with fast turnaround times and direct shipping to your location.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the different types of custom window decals available?
We offer standard vinyl window decals, clear decals, and perforated window film. Each type is available for either inside or outside glass application. Our customer service team can help you select the best option for your specific requirements.
How are custom window decals made?
We print your artwork directly onto 3.4 mil vinyl using UV-resistant inks, then precision-cut it to your specified size or shape using professional cutting equipment.
Can I get my window decal in a custom size or shape?
Yes. We can produce decals in exact dimensions and various shapes including rectangles, circles, ovals, contour cuts, or exact die-cuts that match your design. Our design team is available to assist with custom specifications.
Are there any design guidelines for creating window decals in a custom shape?
Your artwork should include a clear cut line around the perimeter of your desired shape. Avoid design elements with lines thinner than ½ inch, as very fine details may not cut cleanly.
What's the difference between inside glass and second surface decals?
Inside glass decals are printed in reverse (mirror image) so they can be applied to the interior surface of glass and read correctly from the outside. Second surface decals are applied directly to the exterior surface of the glass.
How do I apply custom window decals?
Clean the glass surface thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue. Peel away the backing paper and apply the decal slowly from one edge to the other, using a squeegee or credit card to press out any air bubbles as you go.
Can I reposition the window decal after application?
Standard vinyl decals allow for minor adjustment during initial installation, but they are not designed for repeated removal and reapplication. Once fully adhered, they should remain in place.
Are these custom window decals reusable for events?
Our standard vinyl window decals and perforated vinyl are designed for one-time application. However, our static clings can be removed and reused multiple times, making them an excellent choice for temporary or recurring events.
Do vinyl window decals work on non-glass surfaces?
Vinyl decals adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces such as glass, metal, or polished plastic. They may not adhere properly to rough, textured, or porous surfaces.
Do I have to invert my design for it to appear properly?
Only if you are ordering inside glass decals. For inside glass application, your design must be reversed before printing so it displays correctly when viewed from outside. Contact our team if you need assistance with your design orientation.
