Can Smith & Warren Duplicate My Department’s Badge?
If you’re looking for a new badge supplier, chances are your current provider isn’t meeting your needs—whether it’s slow turnaround times, inconsistent quality, or poor service. At Smith & Warren, we understand how important your department’s badge is. That’s why we specialize in creating high-quality badges that maintain your current design while improving durability, consistency, and service reliability.
Can We Duplicate Your Badge?
Yes—and we make the process simple.
Every department’s badge is unique, and we respect that. When you contact us, our team will carefully review your badge to determine the best path forward.
- We may already have your badge design in our extensive catalog.
- If not, we’ll check our archives and existing dies & tools to see if we can recreate it.
- If your badge requires new tooling, we’ll walk you through the options—sometimes, an investment is necessary, but not always.
No matter what, our goal is to provide you with a high-quality badge that meets your department’s expectations. The first step is simple: send us a photo of your badge and let us know how many you need. We’ll take it from there.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my badge look exactly like it currently does?
Our goal is to duplicate your badge as closely as possible while ensuring the highest level of craftsmanship. Because every manufacturer uses unique processes, no two companies produce identical badges—but our expertise allows us to match your badge’s design while improving durability, finish, and overall quality.
Can we update or modify our badge design during the duplication process?
Yes! If your badge requires a new die, it’s an opportunity to make enhancements. Many departments take this chance to improve detailing, upgrade finishes, or address past design limitations.
Are there any setup costs for custom dies?
If a new die is required, there may be an investment in tooling. This varies based on badge size and complexity. However, not all badges require new dies. When you reach out, we’ll quickly assess your badge and let you know the best path forward.
Do you have examples of badges you’ve duplicated for other agencies?
Yes! We have successfully redeveloped badges for departments across the country. Check out our before-and-after comparisons below or read our Henry County Police badge redevelopment case study to see how we help agencies transition to higher-quality, more reliable badges.
