Owl Badges

Can I order just one badge?

Yes. We accept single badge orders with no minimum quantity requirements for metal badges. Some product types (flex badges, PVC patches, stickers) do have minimums due to production setup costs. Order one badge for a new recruit or outfit your entire department — same quality, same attention to detail either way.

How much do custom police badges cost?

Metal badges range from $30-$150 depending on the style, size, and level of customization. Every badge includes full personalization — your agency name, officer rank, badge number, and department seal — at no extra charge. There are no setup fees and no hidden charges. Bulk orders of 10 or more badges receive automatic discounts ranging from 30% to 60% off depending on quantity. Contact us for agency pricing on large department orders.

How long does it take to receive my badge?

Standard metal badge production takes 8-12 weeks from approved design. Embroidered patches take 3-5 weeks. Rush orders are available for select badge styles. Contact us at 626-412-1200 for current lead times on your specific badge style.

What materials are your badges made from?

Our metal badges are crafted from high-grade brass or nickel alloys and undergo multiple stages of die-striking for crisp, sharp details. Finish options include gold plating, silver/nickel plating, two-tone combinations, true black, gun metal, and antique finishes. All badges feature tarnish-resistant plating, scratch-resistant surfaces, and professional jewelry-grade polish. Every badge passes a multi-point quality inspection before shipping and comes with a 2-year warranty.

Can I duplicate my existing department badge?

Yes. Send us your existing badge or clear photos of it and our design team will create an exact duplicate. We send digital design proofs for your approval before production begins so you can confirm every detail looks exactly right. We can also reproduce the same design in different color variations — gold, silver, two-tone — for different ranks within your department.

Do you offer discounts for department bulk orders?

Yes. Bulk department orders receive significant volume discounts: 10+ badges: 30% off, 25+ badges: 45% off, 50+ badges: 50% off, 100+ badges: 60% off. Contact us at 626-412-1200 with your quantity and requirements for a custom quote tailored to your department's needs.

What information do I need to customize a badge?

You'll need your agency name, officer rank or title, badge number (optional), and any seal or emblem you'd like included. Our live online designer lets you enter this information and see your badge update in real time. If you need help matching your department's official seal or colors, our design team is available via live chat or phone at no extra charge.

Can I get a proof before my badge goes into production?

Yes. For all custom quote orders, our design team sends you a digital proof for approval before production begins. You can request as many changes as needed until the design is exactly right. Production only begins after you give final written approval. For badges designed through our online designer, you see a real-time preview of every change as you make it — what you see on screen is exactly what you receive.
