Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a custom metal badge like the Brownsville 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 laurel-bordered oval as shown or change the seal, the wreath color, the ribbon wording, 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 you reproduce a full-color city seal like this one?

Yes. The seal on this badge is reproduced in five enamel colors inside a struck ring, with the lettering, the building and the palm trees all separated by raised metal lines so each color stays in its own cell. We can reproduce your city or county seal the same way from your official artwork, in as many colors as it needs.

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 multi-color seal like this one is filled one color at a time and leveled between fills, so the enamel stage runs longer than it does on a single-color design.

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

Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Brownsville 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.
