Production time depends primarily on whether you are ordering a stock size or a bespoke dimension, and current lead times are best confirmed directly against your specific event date rather than assumed from a general figure.
Three factors typically influence turnaround the most:
- Stock versus bespoke sizing. Standard sizes generally move faster through production than custom dimensions.
- Order volume. Wholesale or multi unit orders take longer than a single bespoke unit.
- Artwork readiness. Delays most often occur while waiting on final approved artwork rather than during physical production itself.
The single most effective way to avoid a late delivery is to request your free mockup and approve final artwork as early as possible relative to your event date, since production generally cannot begin until artwork is confirmed.
Because Boardsy produces from its own Chichester workshop rather than depending on international freight, UK based orders avoid the shipping uncertainty that affects overseas manufactured alternatives, which is particularly relevant if you are ordering close to a fixed event date such as an exhibition or product launch.
If your event date is fixed and close, mention this explicitly when requesting your quote, since production scheduling can sometimes be prioritised for genuinely time sensitive orders.
Request a free mockup and current lead time estimate on the LED cube light box page as early as possible before your event.
