Record Covers,
Printed to Order.

Custom record sleeves on heavyweight card, matt or gloss laminated, printed front and back. Every cover is cut square, a little larger than its record so the record slides in. Buy one with a record, or on its own for a record you already have.

Card and finish

Heavyweight Card, Matt or Gloss Laminated.

Our vinyl record covers are printed in our workshop on heavyweight archival card, edge to edge, then laminated and cut to size.

Matt or gloss is your choice in the designer, at the same price. Matt has a soft, flat finish; gloss has a shine.

Both sides are printed: the front, and a back for the tracklist, the credits or a message.

With your record or on its own

With Your Record, or on Its Own.

Add a cover to a record in the designer and it costs less: a 12-inch cover is £16.00 with a record, £20.00 on its own.

On its own, for a record you already have, a cover comes with a card insert sleeve for the record (not on a 5-inch), a clear PVC sleeve and stickers. One cover is a normal order.

How We Make Your Cover.

Vinnie at the print-room island, between a stack of fresh prints and the roll laminator, the printers behind him
  1. Your file is checked first: the size, the crop and the edges. If anything looks wrong, we get in touch before it prints.

  2. Printed edge to edge on archival card, by calibrated printers in our workshop.

  3. Laminated matt or gloss, then die cut to size on a flatbed cutter.

  4. Built and checked against your order once more, then packed.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Before you order

Got Questions?

What is the standard size of a vinyl record cover?

A record cover is a square a little larger than its record, so the record slides in. Our vinyl record sleeve dimensions: 317 mm (12.5 in) for a 12-inch, 267 mm (10.5 in) for a 10-inch, 186 mm (7.3 in) for a 7-inch and 133 mm (5.2 in) for a 5-inch.

What size is a 7-inch record sleeve?

Our 7-inch cover is 186 mm square (7.3 in), cut to fit a 7-inch single.

Can I buy a cover without a record?

Yes. A 12-inch cover on its own is £20.00. It comes with a card insert sleeve for the record (not on a 5-inch), a clear PVC sleeve and stickers.

Matt or gloss?

Your choice, at the same price: matt has a soft, flat finish, gloss has a shine. Both are laminated over the print.

What file do I need?

Two square pictures, front and back, at 300 dpi: 3,768 px for a 12-inch, 3,165 px for a 10-inch, 2,209 px for a 7-inch and 1,583 px for a 5-inch. Or build it in the cover designer, and the file is made for you. The cover designer

Sleeve, jacket or cover: what's the difference?

They're the same thing: the printed card outer a record sits in. In the US they're often called jackets, in the UK record sleeves. The plain card insert sleeve goes inside it. Jacket, sleeve or cover: more on the 12-inch cover
