Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a custom metal badge like the Ellis County Sheriff's Office circle star?

Yes. Owl Badges produces custom die-struck metal badges for sheriff's offices, police departments, and public-safety agencies nationwide. You can order this Ellis County design as shown — two-tone gold and silver circle star, engraved floral star, raised gold Texas map, and SHERIFF and name banners — or change any element to fit your agency. There is no setup fee and no mold fee.

Can you put our own state map or deputy names on an Ellis County style badge?

Yes. The center of this Ellis County design is a state map rather than a seal, and our artwork team can render your own state in the same raised style, with a marker at your county. The lower banner carries a deputy name and can be struck differently for each badge, and we can change the ring lettering and finish the badge in two-tone, all gold, or all silver. You receive a free proof before any tooling begins.

What is the minimum order for custom metal badges?

Metal badges carry a low minimum order, and per-piece pricing drops as quantity rises. Small runs are welcome for new departments or specialty units, with price breaks at 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 pieces.

How much does a custom metal badge like this Ellis County badge cost?

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

How long does production take for a metal badge?

Custom die-struck metal badges take approximately 8 to 14 weeks for tooling, striking, plating, and finishing after your proof is approved. Your design is confirmed before production begins, so there are no surprises.

Do I need credentials to order an Ellis County Sheriff badge with the real agency name?

Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name such as the Ellis County Sheriff's Office are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production. Custom or fictional department designs, and designs where you change the name to your own, are welcome without that step.
