Dogs Allowed Sign Printing in Manchester
Dog walkers choose where to stop based on one question: can the dog come in? Answer it on the outside of the building and they stop with you instead of walking on to the next place.

About this product
Dog-friendly pubs and cafés win a loyal crowd, but only if walkers know. A sign inside the door is too late; the decision is made on the pavement.
A Marple pub beside the towpath, Greater Manchester
Think of a pub in Marple, near the canal, with walkers passing all weekend. Many have a muddy dog in tow and assume they will be turned away. An A2 sign on the front wall facing the path, and another at the beer garden gate, changes that. Walkers see it from a distance and head over.
The mistake is fixing it inside, next to the bar or on the toilet door, where only people already inside can read it. Face it towards the street or path. If dogs are welcome only in the bar or garden, not the dining room, add that through typesetting for £15 so there are no awkward moments. A person checks the layout before print.
Board and size
Outside, Dibond lasts years on a wall or gate. 5mm Foamex works in a sheltered porch. Correx is good for a summer beer festival or a market stall. A2 reads from about 17 m, enough to catch a passing walker; A3, roughly 12 m, suits a shop door. Prices start at £26.55.
Production is 5 working days, and the courier usually takes 1 to 3 working days after that. Delivery is £7.95, or free when goods pass £100. Collection is also possible from our Manchester office at Unit 3, 116 Bury New Road, M8 8EB, once we email that it is ready. See school and community signs. Choose a size to order.
We are a Manchester printer with customers all over the UK. Delivery covers Manchester and its suburbs, Trafford Park among them, and the rest of the mainland, and local customers can collect from our Manchester office when the order is ready.

What size should I order?
Pick a size people can read from where they will stand. As a cautious rule, using the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, allow roughly 1 metre of reading distance per 25 mm of sign height (measured on the shorter side). Check it against your own risk assessment.
| Size | Can be read from about |
|---|---|
| A3 (297 × 420 mm) | 12 m |
| A2 (420 × 594 mm) | 17 m |
| A1 (594 × 841 mm) | 24 m |
Good lighting stretches the reading distance; in dim spots, go a size up.
