Custom Holiday Window Lettering for NJ Storefronts

Clean white letters on the glass say the shop is open for the holidays without covering the window. Here are the holiday templates in our vinyl designer, what each one costs, and when to order so it is up in time.

Holiday templates and prices

Each template opens in the vinyl designer with the words already laid out. Change the text, your shop name and the size, and the price updates as you type. Prices below are for one decal at the template size, from the live designer.

Cut lettering or a printed decal?

  • Cut vinyl is letters and shapes cut from solid-color outdoor vinyl with no background, so it looks painted on and the window stays see-through. White reads well on dark glass, and one or two colors keep it clean. All the templates above are cut vinyl.
  • Printed decals are for full color, photos or gradients. Orders of only printed decals have a $30.00 minimum, and it covers the glass behind the design.

Window lettering and town sign rules

A greeting is decoration, but hours, sale messages and your name usually count as window signs, and most Bergen towns cap window signs at a share of the glass. Paramus, for example, allows signs inside the window up to 2 feet tall and 20% of the window (borough handout), and Teaneck allows up to 30% (Teaneck code). Our window signs guide has the rules for five towns and the sizing math. This is not legal advice, so check with your zoning office.

Cut vinyl is ready in 3 to 5 business days, and rush (next business day) is available for 25% more if you are cutting it close. Ordering a week earlier than the dates above gives you the whole season in the window, not just the last week.

Putting it up and taking it down

  • Every order comes pre-masked with transfer tape, a squeegee and wet-apply instructions. Clean the glass first, and apply on a mild day without direct sun on the window.
  • Measure the glass before you order and leave a few inches of clear space around the lettering. The designer shows the exact cut size with a dashed box.
  • To remove it, warm the letters with a hair dryer and peel slowly. It leaves no residue on glass in good condition.
  • Rather not do it yourself? Installation in Bergen County is a flat $75.00 per visit.
