Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a custom metal badge like the Bogata Police design?

Yes. Owl Badges produces custom die-struck metal badges for police departments, sheriff’s offices, and constable offices nationwide. You can order this two-tone eagle-top shield as shown or change the seal, the banner wording, the rank line, and the plating split to fit your own department. Badges carrying a real agency name require credential verification before production.

What is the minimum order for a police badge like this?

There is a low minimum order. Single badges are available for individual officers, and per-piece pricing drops sharply as quantity rises, which makes larger runs practical for an entire department or a promotion cycle at once.

Can the gold and silver be arranged differently on this badge?

Yes. This badge uses the two-tone split to separate the frame from the face, so the gold laurel border and star stand out against the silver eagle, field and banners. We can reverse it to a gold body with silver trim, run the whole badge in one tone, or move the gold to the eagle and banners instead of the border.

How much does a custom metal badge like this cost?

Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at a single piece down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes. There is no setup fee and no mold fee. Final pricing depends on the finished design, size, and quantity, and is confirmed with a free quote.

How long does production take?

Approximately 8 to 14 weeks for tooling, striking, enamel fill, plating, and finishing after your proof is approved. A two-tone badge is plated in two passes with the second tone masked, and the laurel border on this design is masked leaf by leaf so the gold edge stays sharp against the silver.

Do I need credentials to order a badge with the Bogata Police name on it?

Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Bogata police buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or fictional department designs, and designs where you substitute your own agency name, are welcome without that step.
