Engraving Questions
Q: Do you guys engrave monograms? What order should I enter the initials for a monogram A: This is our most common question. Most people are referring to a classic monogram when asking this question. A classic monogram is where the last name letter is engraved in the middle and is enlarged. We offer 2 monogram fonts on many items, but not all of them (some items don't look right when engraved with a classic monogram). The 2 monogram fonts are circle monogram and script monogram.
When choosing one of these 2 fonts, enter the letters in the order you would like them. For example, if the name was John F. Kennedy, enter the letters like this: JKF . Just to be clear on this, enter the initials in the order you would like them. We don't change around the order because we don't know what the last name is in many cases. We'll engrave initials in the order you enter them.
Q: Can items be engraved with more characters than the space allowed? A: No, we provide the maximum space that will fit on a given item.
Q: Where do we engrave on an item? A: We engrave on the most ideal available area, normally the front. If a customer has a specific area where they’d like the engraving done they can request this in the comments section. Our engravers will do their best to accommodate requests but we can’t guarantee it.
Q: How long does engraving take? A: Engraving normally does not add to a shipping time. Normally your item will still ship the next business day. On rare occasions, engraving can add a day or two to shipment time. If you have a specific date you need an item in hand by, please note that in the comments section of the checkout page.
Q: How do I request multiple items with different engraving? A: You can add the first item to the shopping cart and then press the Keep Shopping button. This will allow you to add another of the same or a different item. You can repeat this until all of the items are in the shopping cart at which point you can check out.
Q: How can I see what the fonts look like? A: After you enter your engraving and choose a font, press the button to preview your engraving. Your text will show in the font selected.
Q: Can I add a logo to an item? A: On most items, yes you can. There is a 5 piece minimum order for logo orders. If you are ordering five ore more, you would just place your order but under engraving put ***LOGO***. Then reply to your order confirmation email with your logo. We'd put together a proof for your approval or editing within 2 business days. If you'd like to see a proof before ordering, you can submit a request here: Logo Requests
