Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a custom metal badge like the Del Rio 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 oval style as shown or change the seal, the eagles, the pedestal wording, the banner color and 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 the two eagles and the pedestal wording be changed?

Yes. The two eagles on this badge are struck as separate figures on their own pedestals with the pedestal lettering cut into the die beneath them, so each reads as a distinct emblem rather than a mirrored pair. We can change either figure, reword the pedestals, replace the center plate with your own motto, or run a single eagle in the center if the paired layout does not suit your department.

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. The two eagles and the small plate emblem add die-cutting time up front, and the blue seal and banner are filled in one pass before the two-tone plating is masked and applied.

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

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