PRICES
Every front panel is counted as a single item and our production price is determined by the individual design elements. Front Panel Designer gives you full control over costs.
You can see the price of your panel at any time during the design process, and with the help of the detailed itemization breakdown you'll know what every element costs. Pricing examples can be found under Inspiration.
VOLUME DISCOUNTS
We offer a volume discount when five or more of the same design are ordered together. An automatic discount scale, which is also shown to you in the price calculation in Front Panel Designer, is applied to quantities of up to 29 units. Information on discounts for larger volumes (30 units or more) are available and can be provided on request.

Ideally, please send us your design in DXF or STEP format, a dimensioned drawing is preferable.
