Van and trailer lettering is names, numbers and notices on paintwork. Take your time on a clean, dry panel. A rushed fit on a wet door peels.
Prep
Wash the door, rinse, and dry it. Wipe the area with isopropyl alcohol or a panel wipe. Check the spelling of the name and the fleet number before the liner comes off. Use tape hinges on a long word so you can reposition it.
Fit
Squeegee from the middle outwards. Peel application tape back on itself. Do not wrap letters around a sharp door edge. Do not cover lamps, plates or handles. A number on the rear door should still be readable when the door is shut.
Vans and trailers are not lifting equipment just because a forklift loaded them. Thorough examination date labels belong on the lifting equipment the report covers, not automatically on the van. Hire notices are your own wording. Send them typed. Custom lettering is quoted. In-stock catalogue stickers can dispatch the same day.
Do the driver’s door and the passenger door from the same proof so the name matches. A fleet number on the roof is useless if nobody sees it from the yard. Say whether the van is a dark colour. Light letters on a dark door are the usual choice. We will not pick a colour from a night photograph. Check both doors against the same proof before anyone peels a liner. A fleet that mixes two spellings of its own name looks It looks careless from the road. Fit both doors from the same proof, and say if the van is dark so the letters are light enough to read. Light letters on a dark door are the usual choice. We will not guess that from a night photo.
