Overview
The short answer, then the detail.
A Blue Badge Holders Only sign reserves parking or drop-off space for disabled drivers and passengers. Choose 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite in sizes from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm); the largest reads at about 24 metres. UK mainland delivery £7.95, free over £99; no VAT added.
This Blue Badge Holders Only sign reserves parking or drop-off space for disabled drivers and passengers. It is typically used in car parks at shops, offices, surgeries and venues. The design uses a clear blue and white information layout.
The wording "Blue Badge Holders Only" is set in large, high-contrast lettering so it reads quickly.
Private car parks are not covered by the Blue Badge rules that apply on the public highway, so clear signs are how you make disabled bays known and respected.
Blue Badge Holders Only Sign: sizes and materials
Materials: 3.5mm Correx fluted polypropylene, light and waterproof, ideal for temporary and site signs, 5mm Foamex, a thicker PVC foam board that stays flatter at larger sizes and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, rigid and weatherproof for long-term outdoor use. For signs that stay outdoors for a long time, Dibond is the most durable choice.
Sizes and viewing distance: A3 (297 × 420 mm) (reads at about 12 m); A2 (420 × 594 mm) (reads at about 17 m); A1 (594 × 841 mm) (reads at about 24 m). As a guide we allow about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25mm of sign height, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, so choose a bigger size for long corridors, yards and car parks.
Where to put it: At the head of the bay, facing drivers as they pull in.

Which size do I need?
A safety sign must be large enough to read from where people will see it. Our conservative guide, based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1, is about 1 metre of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height (the shorter side). Use it with your own risk assessment.
| Size | Readable from up to about |
|---|---|
| A3 (297 × 420 mm) | 12 m |
| A2 (420 × 594 mm) | 17 m |
| A1 (594 × 841 mm) | 24 m |
Well lit or internally lit signs can be read from further away; dim areas need larger signs.

Frequently asked questions
About blue badge holders only sign.
What size Blue Badge Holders Only sign do I need?
Pick the size by how far away people will read it. A3 (297 × 420 mm) reads at about 12 m, A2 (420 × 594 mm) reads at about 17 m, A1 (594 × 841 mm) reads at about 24 m. These distances are a conservative guide for normal lighting.
Is there an ISO 7010 symbol for "Blue Badge Holders Only"?
No ISO 7010 symbol covers this exact message, so it is a text sign in the standard info colour layout.
Where should the Blue Badge Holders Only sign go?
At the head of the bay, facing drivers as they pull in. Make sure it is not hidden by doors, stock or vehicles.
Is a Blue Badge Holders Only sign a legal requirement?
Private car parks are not covered by the Blue Badge rules that apply on the public highway, so clear signs are how you make disabled bays known and respected. Your own risk assessment decides where signs are needed.
Which material should I choose?
For a sign that stays up for months or years outdoors, choose Dibond aluminium composite. Correx is light, waterproof and the lowest cost for temporary use. Foamex suits sheltered spots.
How do I fix it?
Rigid boards are supplied undrilled. Fix them with sign-mounting tape, screws through holes you drill, or cable ties on fencing. Vinyl is self-adhesive and goes onto clean, smooth, dry surfaces.
Can you change the wording or add our logo?
Yes, as a custom job. Tell us the wording you need instead of "Blue Badge Holders Only", or send your logo, using the question box on this page or by calling 0161 315 1151.

Questions
Buyer questions about this product, answered. Can't see yours? Ask below and our team will reply.
How far away can the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign be read?
Work back from how far away people will be when they need to read it. Using our guide of about 1 m of viewing distance for every 25 mm of sign height: A3 (297 × 420 mm) reads from about 12 m, A2 (420 × 594 mm) reads from about 17 m and A1 (594 × 841 mm) reads from about 24 m. In poor light, or where people are moving quickly, go a size up. The guide is based on the distance-factor method in ISO 3864-1; use it with your own risk assessment.
Which sizes can I order the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign in?
The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) at £28.97 up to A1 (594 × 841 mm) at £57.10. In between: A2 (420 × 594 mm). Prices are the lowest option for each size.
I do not have artwork. Can you design it for me?
The Artwork choice on this page offers: "I will upload print-ready artwork" (free), "Add my text and logo to a clean layout (typesetting)" (£15), "Design it for me from my brief" (£35), "Redraw or vectorise my logo from a low-res file" (£50) and "Design a new logo for me" (£100). Design fees are fixed, show as their own line in the basket and cover the whole quantity of that item. Typesetting includes 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes; design from your brief includes 1 design and 2 rounds of changes. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
How much does the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign cost?
The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts from £28.97 with size A3 (297 × 420 mm) and material 3.5mm Correx on the Saver turnaround. The price in the calculator changes live as you pick the size, material, finishing, quantity and turnaround, so you see the final price before you add to basket. No VAT is added because we are not VAT registered. Delivery is added at checkout: UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it).
How long does the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign take to make?
On the option the calculator opens on, Saver is ready to dispatch in 5 working days, Standard in 3 and Express in 2. These are working days to dispatch, counted from when your order and artwork are confirmed, and other sizes or materials can take a day more or less: the calculator shows the exact days next to each turnaround. Courier delivery usually takes 1 to 3 working days after dispatch, and we email the tracking details when the parcel leaves us. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.
Do you charge for delivery?
UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it), so one sign at £28.97 on its own pays £7.95, and the charge disappears once your basket reaches £99. Mainland Scottish Highlands postcodes add £10 once per order. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted before you order.
What type of sign is the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign?
"Blue Badge Holders Only" is an information sign, giving people clear instructions or directions. No ISO 7010 symbol covers this exact message, so the wording carries it. The colours and shapes follow the scheme set out in the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996. The wording on the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is "Blue Badge Holders Only".
How thick is the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign?
The board options are 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, so the board version is as thick as the figure in its name. Dibond is two thin aluminium skins with a plastic core, so it is rigid but still easy to fix. Foamex is a light foamed PVC board.
Can the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign be used outside?
Yes, in the right material. Dibond is the best choice for signs that stay outside long term. Correx is weatherproof and fine outside for temporary use. Foamex copes with sheltered outdoor spots but is happiest indoors. All printed signs fade slowly in strong sun over time; check them as part of your routine and replace any that are hard to read. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Will the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign show up at night?
Only where there is light on it. We print on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite, which are not reflective or glow in the dark. For car parks, yards and routes used after dark, position signs under existing lighting, or light them. Where your risk assessment calls for reflective or photoluminescent signs, you will need a specialist supplier.
How do I fix the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign to a wall or fence?
Foamex and Dibond boards can be screwed to a wall through holes drilled near the corners; use washers and do not overtighten, especially on Foamex. On smooth indoor walls and doors, double-sided foam tape or adhesive pads avoid drilling. Correx is best cable tied to fencing or fixed to posts. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Do you check my file before printing?
Yes. A person from our team checks every uploaded file for size, bleed and resolution, and tells you if something needs fixing before anything is made. We print what you supply, so check spelling, phone numbers and dates yourself too. Production starts once your order and artwork are confirmed. For the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 (297 × 420 mm).
What resolution does my artwork need for this sign?
For items read close up, aim for 300 dpi at the finished size. At 300 dpi an A1 (594 × 841 mm) design needs about 7,016 × 9,933 pixels. Logos and text are best as vector artwork, which stays sharp at any size. Photos taken from websites or social media are usually far too small; our file check flags images that may print soft.
What happens if my file is not good enough to print?
Our file check catches the usual problems: the wrong size, no bleed, low resolution images and text too close to the edge. We tell you what needs fixing before anything is printed, and you can send a new file. If you would rather we sort it, the typesetting option (£15, 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes) sets your text and logo on a clean layout. For the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 (297 × 420 mm).
What file should I upload?
A PDF at the finished size is best, with fonts embedded or converted to outlines. We also take AI, EPS and SVG, and high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF files. Word, PowerPoint and Canva files are fine as a starting point, but export a full-quality PDF if you can. You can upload up to 3 files of 25 MB each on the product page, or upload later: we email you after you order. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).
Can I order now and send my artwork later?
Yes. You can upload your file on the product page, or place the order and upload later: we email you after you order. Your designer can send the file to us by email or WhatsApp with your order number, so it does not have to come through you. The turnaround clock starts once your order and artwork are confirmed, so send the file early if you have a deadline. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
How do I order several of this sign?
The price shown is for one sign in the size and material you pick. Set the quantity box next to Add to basket and the basket multiplies it. If you need several different sizes or materials, add each one to the basket separately. One artwork fee covers the whole quantity of a line, and "Same artwork as another item in my basket" adds no second fee. For large runs, ask for a quote. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.
Will the price change at checkout?
Only delivery is added. The goods price you see in the calculator is final, with no VAT added. UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it). Any artwork or design fee you choose shows as its own line in the basket, so you can see exactly what you are paying for. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).
Can I pay for express production on the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign?
Yes. Express makes this sign ready to dispatch in 2 working days on the opening option, priced at £38.64 against £28.97 on Saver (5 days). To plan back from a date, add 1 to 3 working days for the courier after dispatch and allow for artwork: production starts once your order and artwork are confirmed. If the date is very tight, call 0161 315 1151 before you order.
Do you deliver Blue Badge Holders Only Sign to the Scottish Highlands?
Yes, with a difference in price. Mainland Scottish Highlands postcodes, for example around Inverness, Fort William, Oban and Thurso, pay the mainland rate plus £10 once per order, even when the order qualifies for free delivery. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted before you order: use Get a quote or call 0161 315 1151. We do not deliver outside the UK. On the opening option, the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is ready to dispatch in 5 working days on Saver or 2 on Express.
How do the material prices compare on the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign?
At A3 (297 × 420 mm): 3.5mm Correx £28.97, 5mm Foamex £33.65 and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite £50.09. The gap stays similar on bigger sizes, which the Prices by size table on this page shows in full. Choose on where the sign goes rather than price alone: the cheapest material is not always the one that lasts in that spot.
What other signs go with the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign?
Signs that are often needed alongside it include Disabled Parking Arrow Right Sign, Disabled Parking Access Required Sign, Disabled Drop Off and Pick Up Left Sign and Disabled Drop Off and Pick Up Only Sign. Each has its own page with sizes, materials and live prices, and ordering them in the same material keeps a set looking consistent. Add them to one basket: delivery is charged once, and it is free once the goods total reaches £99. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Can I get the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign bigger than A1 (594 × 841 mm)?
The largest listed size is A1 (594 × 841 mm), from £57.10. For a bigger sign, use Get a quote with the size, material and quantity, and we will price it. Boards larger than A0 travel as oversize items, which adds £15 once per order.
Is the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign portrait or landscape?
This design is portrait, in A3 (297 × 420 mm), A2 (420 × 594 mm) and A1 (594 × 841 mm). Portrait suits doors, posts and narrow wall spaces. If you need the other way round, choose a design option and we will lay it out for you.
Will this sign bend or bow in the sun?
Foamex is a foamed plastic, so in strong sun and heat a large, thin board can bow, especially if it is only fixed at the corners. Dibond has aluminium skins and stays flat, which is why it is the choice for long-term outdoor signs. Fixing Foamex flat against a wall, or choosing a thicker board, keeps it straighter. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Can I trim or drill this sign myself?
Foamex and Correx cut with a sharp craft knife and a straight edge: score a few times, then snap or cut through. Dibond has aluminium skins, so it needs a fine-toothed saw and a steady hand. Drill fixing holes with an ordinary drill bit, going slowly, and keep holes at least 10 mm from the edge. Cutting into the print loses the bleed, so allow for it in the design. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Can I put the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign on a door?
Yes, fixed with double-sided foam tape or screws. A 3mm Foamex board with double-sided foam tape also works well on a flat door. Place it at eye level on the push side or beside the door, where it is not hidden when the door is open. If the door is a fire door, check with whoever manages it before screwing anything into it. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Will this sign be easy to read for people with poor sight?
Strong contrast, a plain bold typeface and a size to suit the viewing distance make the biggest difference. Our standard safety sign designs use the high-contrast colour pairs set by the safety sign scheme. Place signs at eye level, well lit and without glare, and keep the wording short. For the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign, set your file up at the size you order, for example A3 (297 × 420 mm).
Will my brand colours print exactly?
Supply CMYK where you can. RGB files are converted to CMYK for print, which can make very bright greens, blues and oranges look slightly duller. If you need a brand colour matched, give us the Pantone reference and we match it as closely as the material allows. Small differences between a screen and the printed item are normal, because screens give off light and print reflects it. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
Can I return this sign if I change my mind?
No. This sign is printed to your order, and the 14-day right to cancel does not apply to goods made to your specification (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, regulation 28(1)(b)). You can cancel for a full refund before production starts. If an item is faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, your Consumer Rights Act 2015 rights apply and we reprint or refund. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.
Do I need an account to order?
No. You can check out as a guest and pay by debit or credit card, processed securely by Stripe. Creating an account at checkout lets you see past orders in My Account. Either way you get an order confirmation email and a tracking email when your order is dispatched. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.
Can I reorder the same sign later?
Yes. Order the same product and options again and upload the same file. Keep your print-ready file safe so a repeat order is quick. If anything like a phone number or price has changed, update the artwork before you reorder. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.
How many Blue Badge Holders Only signs do I need?
Walk the route people take and put a sign wherever someone needs the message and would otherwise miss it: each entrance, each approach to the hazard and each change of direction. Larger areas usually need the same sign more than once, in the size that suits each viewing distance. Add them all as one line with a quantity, or as separate lines if you need different sizes or materials. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop or by our UK production partner, depending on the size and material.
Can I change my artwork after ordering?
Contact us straight away on 0161 315 1151 or WhatsApp with your order number. If production has not started we can take a corrected file, or cancel the order and refund you in full. Once production starts the order cannot be changed. Printing that matches the design you approved or the file you supplied is not a fault, so check spelling, phone numbers and dates carefully before you order. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).
Where is the Blue Badge Holders Only Sign made?

Can I order several different designs in one order?
Yes. Add each design to the basket as its own line with its own file or online design, then check out once. Delivery is charged once per order, and becomes free when the goods total reaches £99. If several lines use the same artwork, choose "Same artwork as another item in my basket" so you only pay one design fee. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).
Can I get a VAT invoice?
No. We are not VAT registered, so we do not charge VAT and cannot issue a VAT invoice. You get an order confirmation email with the items, options and total paid, which works as your receipt. Because no VAT is added, the price you see in the calculator is the price you pay for the goods, with delivery shown at checkout. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed in our Manchester workshop or by our UK production partner, depending on the size and material.
How do I pay?
By debit or credit card at checkout. Payments are processed securely by Stripe, and we never see or store your full card number. Your order goes into production once payment is taken and your order and artwork are confirmed. For a large or unusual order you can ask for a quote first. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign comes in 3 listed sizes, from A3 (297 × 420 mm) to A1 (594 × 841 mm).

The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign starts at £28.97 before delivery.
How do I clean this sign?
Wipe with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry. Do not use solvents, scouring pads or strong cleaners, which can dull or lift the print. Store spare boards flat so they do not bow. The Blue Badge Holders Only Sign is printed on 3.5mm Correx, 5mm Foamex and 3mm Dibond aluminium composite.
