Frequently Asked Questions

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

Yes. Owl Badges produces die-struck metal badges for police departments nationwide. This eagle-topped oval style can be ordered as shown, or the seal, the rank line, and the four banners can be changed to your own city and state. There is no setup fee and no mold fee.

Can you frame a badge with both an eagle and a laurel wreath?

Yes. This badge carries a spread-winged eagle at the crest and laurel branches up both sides, a formal combination that frames the seal on three sides. We can strike an eagle, a wreath, or both from your artwork, and show you how they sit around your seal on a free proof.

Can you make a detective badge with the rank on a top banner?

Yes. This badge reads DETECTIVE on the top banner above the city and department lines. We can strike detective, sergeant, lieutenant, or any rank on the top scroll, and each piece in an order can carry its own. Send the rank breakdown with your order.

How long does production take for a badge like this?

Custom metal badges take approximately 8 to 14 weeks after proof approval, covering tooling, striking, plating, and finishing. A badge with a struck eagle, laurel branches, four banners, and a multi-color seal sits toward the longer end of that window. Your design is confirmed on a free proof before any tooling is cut.

How much does a custom metal badge like this cost?

Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at single quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes, with no setup fee and no mold fee. The struck eagle and laurel and the number of enamel colors in the seal place a badge like this at the detailed end of the range. Final pricing is confirmed with a free quote.

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

Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name — including the Port Richey Police Department — are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives, and require proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter. If you change the seal and department name to your own, no credentials are needed.
