Hex Number Plates
From £49.99 per printed pair · Hex adds £10 per plate
Every lettering finish is available on this shape. Choose a front plate, rear plate or pair in the builder.
Hex number plates have angled ends and a tailored width. Compare lettering and borders, check the mounting fit and build a front, rear or matching pair.
You’ll need proof of identity (for example a driving licence or a recent bank statement) and proof of entitlement to the registration (for example your V5C). A clear phone photo is fine. Send them after you order. What we accept

Hex number plates with an angled outline
Hex number plates use angled ends to create a six-sided outline around your registration. Paramount Plates offers this shape across all nine active lettering finishes, so you can choose the outer profile independently from flat, gel or acrylic characters.
Shape and character finish are separate
The preview sample uses Printed lettering to make the shape easy to see. Your own plate can use that flat finish or one of our raised options. The finished width is tailored around the registration and angled edges; it is not one universal measurement. Enter your registration in the builder to see the proportions of your design.
- Shape surcharge: £10 per Hex plate, or £20 for a pair of Hex plates.
- Printed pair example: £49.99 with both plates Hex, before borders and extras.
- Border option: a printed black outline for £1 per selected plate.
- Flags and green flashes: not offered on our Hex shape.
Define the edge with a printed border
Leave the plate edge plain or add a black border that follows the angled outline. The border is printed flat and leaves the registration and plate markings clear. Any raised depth comes from your chosen lettering, rather than from the border itself.
Combine different front and rear shapes
Choose Hex for one side or both. In the Shape tab, turn off “Same as front” to select the rear independently. If a national flag or green flash is part of your design, choose Standard or Short for that plate. You can also choose different lettering and borders while keeping the same registration.
Check the full mounting outline
Measure the available mounting area and check the corners as well as the width. Angled ends can reveal old holes, clips or marks that a rectangular plate covered. A standard rectangular holder may not suit the Hex outline. Send us your registration and mounting measurements if fit needs checking before you order.
Hex plates are made to order after identity and registration entitlement checks. Free Royal Mail Tracked 48 delivery is included. Your purchase is for physical plates, not ownership or assignment of a registration number.

Pyramid-cut black characters whose sloping faces catch the light, in the manner of classic pressed plates.
