Labels & Customizing

Gateworks understands there are times when a custom labeled enclosure is needed.

The following options exist:

• Remove the top plate that shows the Gateworks logo and flip it around so the back side shows and the Gateworks logo can't be seen
• Have a custom made label with adhesive backing custom made and place on top of the Gateworks logo (read more below)
• Contact Gateworks Sales Team directly to have a custom enclosure made with your company logo. This usually requires a minimum of at least 100 pieces and will require a setup fee, typically starting around $450 but could vary.

Custom Adhesive Label

There are scenarios where a label / sticker can be applied to the standard Gateworks indoor enclosures for company branding.

In the past, Gateworks customers have used labels with the following properties:

• Label Material: Textured Polycarbonate Laminate - scratch resistant, scuff resistance and UV resistance.
• Adhesive: Permanent Adhesive
• Thickness: 6mil (.006 inch) total
• Corners: Square, NON-Rounded
• Size: Measured to fit on top panel of enclosures. Size will vary depending on enclosure size, taken into account the corner pieces.
