Window graphics and decals in Calgary
Your windows are the biggest sign you already own. We turn plain glass into something people notice from the sidewalk.
Quick answer
Window graphics are vinyl decals and films applied to glass for advertising, branding or privacy. SURE Print Foothills makes them in Calgary in custom sizes: cut vinyl lettering, full-colour printed decals, shape-cut graphics, frosted privacy film and perforated one-way vinyl. Removable and permanent options are available for storefronts, offices and vehicles.
People walking past a shop make up their minds in a couple of seconds. Your hours, your logo and a clear idea of what you sell, right there on the glass, can be the difference between them coming in and walking on to the next door. Window graphics do that job all day without taking up floor space.
We make custom window decals in whatever size and style the glass calls for. Removable vinyl for seasonal sales, permanent lettering for the door, frosted film for an office that needs privacy, and shape-cut graphics that follow the outline of your logo. We measure, print, cut and can install them for you.
Options
Types of window graphics
Cut vinyl lettering
Hours, logo, phone number and website in solid-colour vinyl. Crisp, long-lasting and the classic look for a front door.
Full-colour window decals
Printed graphics with photos, gradients and promotions, cut to shape or sized to fill a pane.
Perforated one-way vinyl
Shows a full graphic outside while people inside can still see out. Popular for storefronts and rear vehicle windows.
Frosted and privacy film
An etched-glass look for boardrooms, clinics and bathroom windows. Can be cut with your logo or a pattern.
Removable promotional decals
For sales, events and seasonal displays. Peel them off when the promo's done.
Inside or outside mounting
We print to face out from inside the glass when we can, which keeps the graphic away from weather and scrapers.
What to expect
How your window graphics order works
- 1
Measure the glass
Send us measurements and photos, or we can measure on site. Every pane is a little different.
- 2
Design the layout
We plan what goes where so it reads from the sidewalk and the parking lot, and doesn't block the view you need.
- 3
Proof and print
You approve a mock-up on a photo of your storefront. Then we print and cut the vinyl.
- 4
Install
We clean the glass and apply the graphics, or supply them ready to apply for simple jobs.

Winter and your window decals
Calgary windows take a beating. Ice scrapers, salt spray off 17 Avenue and big temperature swings when a chinook rolls in all wear on vinyl. That's why we often mount graphics on the inside of the glass, printed to read correctly from the street. If yours have to go outside, we'll use outdoor vinyl and keep thin pieces and sharp points to a minimum so edges don't catch.
FAQ
Window Graphics questions
Can window decals be removed?
Yes. Removable vinyl peels off cleanly and is meant for short-term use. Permanent vinyl can come off too, usually with a bit of heat and adhesive remover.
Can people see out through window graphics?
With perforated one-way vinyl, yes. The outside shows your graphic, and from inside you see through the tiny holes. Solid vinyl and printed decals block the view where they're applied.
How much do window graphics cost?
It depends on the size of the glass, the type of vinyl, how much is printed versus cut, and whether we install. Send us your window measurements and a photo, and we'll email a detailed quote.
Do I need permission to put graphics on my storefront?
Some landlords and shopping centres have sign rules. It's worth checking your lease or asking property management before you order, and we can work to their guidelines.
