Police plaque design, engraving and department order services

Shield Recognition offers six services for police recognition orders: custom design, engraving, department-wide orders, rush production, badge and patch artwork cleanup, and proofs. Each one handles a problem that comes up with service gifts, such as getting a rank and badge number approved or having a retirement plaque ready before an officer's last shift.

Custom police plaque design

Start from a shield outline, a department patch or a rough idea from the squad. We lay out the officer's name, rank, service dates and dedication around it.

Police plaque and award engraving

Send the name, rank, badge number and dates as the personnel record shows them. We set each line so the officer's name is read before anything else.

Department and association orders

One layout for an awards night or a memorial dedication, with a row for each recipient. Unit awards, family copies and lobby pieces stay on separate lines.

Rush police retirement plaques

A retirement date rarely moves. Tell us the last shift or the dinner date, the address and who signs off the wording, and we plan production around it.

Badge, patch and seal artwork preparation

Patches and seals often reach us as a phone photo of a uniform sleeve. We check the artwork at plaque size and redraw what would blur, once permission is confirmed.

Proofs for police plaques and displays

A proof shows every engraved line and, for coin displays, each coin position. The person who knows the service record checks it before anything is made.
