PrintAWorld handles laser engraving for Los Angeles brands and agencies at our New York studio. We review logos, artwork, and supplied items before you ship. Setup is $75 plus per-piece production, with shipping paid by the client. There is no Los Angeles storefront; approved projects travel to New York for engraving.

Start with the object
Start with the look your client approved.
A logo in a design file does not tell us how it should look on the finished object. For a Los Angeles campaign, launch, or client gift, send the item and a visual reference together. Tell us whether the goal is a subtle material mark, strong contrast, or an opaque black graphic. We’ll help choose between engraving and printing.

Let’s look at UV printing.
Laser engraving works with the material’s surface; the result depends on the metal, coating, and settings. It is not the same as adding opaque black ink.
For a fully black graphic on aluminum, a metal business card, or another approved object, we usually recommend UV printing. It is also the route to review for full-color artwork. Send the item and finish requirements so we can recommend the right process.

For planning only. Small, medium, and large are not fixed dimensional bands. The object and the artwork both affect the price.
Your quote depends on item size, engraving area, material, complexity, quantity, and rush requirements. Tell us how many pieces share the same artwork and which need individual names or designs. These are engraving prices; UV printing and laser cutting have separate pricing. Clients pay shipping to and from New York, separately from setup and production.

Los Angeles shipping & delivery
Your LA brief. Our New York studio.
Review the project with us online before shipping. We’ll confirm the New York receiving address and the return-shipping plan for approved work. Clients pay shipping both ways. There is no LA drop-off location, and rush production does not remove the need to allow for the round trip.
Need local pickup or a same-day handoff? A shop near you is a better fit. Our service requires shipping to New York and allowing time for the return trip.
Working locally? NYC engraving & handoff ↗Your project brief
Get the artwork and deadline into the same brief.
For an agency project, the person approving the design may not be the person sending the items. Make those details clear before the shipment leaves.
Show the placement
Send the logo or artwork with a marked-up photo, width, and height. Include each version if the campaign uses different names or designs, and identify who will approve the final details.
Decide what “black” means
An engraved mark depends on the material and finish. If the approved design requires fully black or full-color artwork, we usually recommend UV printing instead, subject to item review.
Work back from the delivery date
Give us the date the pieces must arrive in Los Angeles, not only the launch date. Include when the items can leave for New York. Clients pay both shipping legs, and transit is separate from production.
Before we start
Before your Los Angeles project ships.
Is PrintAWorld a local Los Angeles engraving shop?
No. We serve Los Angeles clients remotely and engrave at our New York studio. Approved items ship to New York and back at the client’s expense. For same-day local pickup or an item you cannot ship, choose a shop near you.
Should we engrave or print a fully black logo?
PrintAWorld usually recommends UV printing when the design needs a fully black graphic. Laser engraving produces a material-dependent result; black artwork on screen does not guarantee a black engraved mark. We review the object, finish, and intended use before recommending either process.
What should an agency include in an engraving brief?
Include item photos or a product link, material and coating, overall dimensions, artwork width and height, placement, quantity, and any changing names. Add the delivery ZIP, in-hand date, and who will approve the work. A reference image is useful even if final artwork is not ready.
How much does a shipped LA engraving project cost?
PrintAWorld’s laser engraving setup fee is $75, plus per-piece production. Approximate production ranges are $10–$25 per piece for small items, $45–$65 per piece for medium items, and $100+ per piece for large items. Item size, engraving size, material, complexity, quantity, and rush requirements determine the quote. These are budget ranges, not fixed size categories or an hourly rate. Client-paid shipping to and from New York is separate. Tell us about the deadline and shipment before booking a service.
Can you meet a launch date in Los Angeles?
Standard engraving lead time is 2–3 weeks. Some suitable projects can be completed as fast as next day or within a week, depending on scope, availability, and how quickly items reach us. Rush work is confirmed project by project. Include transit time when planning your in-hand date. We review the full schedule, including item arrival in New York and return transit to Los Angeles. Do not book shipping on the assumption that a rush slot is available.
Let’s make your project happen
What does your LA team need to make?
Send the object, artwork placement, quantity, delivery ZIP, and in-hand date. If the design is still being approved, tell us what is decided and what may change.
