Frequently Asked Questions about #10 Envelopes
Where are your #10 envelopes manufactured?
Granite Woods Printing manufactures and prints custom #10 envelopes in the US. By keeping production local rather than outsourcing overseas, we ensure consistent paper quality, strict color matching, and reliable shipping times across the United States.
Are these envelopes safe for laser printers?
Yes, but you must choose the right seal. Our Standard Gummed #10 Envelopes are 100% laser-safe and heat resistant. We do not recommend running "Peel & Seal" envelopes through laser printers, as the heat can melt the adhesive. If you plan to print on the envelopes yourself, please select the Standard Gum option.
What is the exact size of a #10 envelope?
A standard #10 commercial envelope measures exactly 4 1/8 inches high by 9 1/2 inches wide. It is designed to fit a standard 8.5" x 11" piece of paper folded into thirds (a tri-fold), making it the standard choice for business letters, invoices, and checks.
Do you have envelopes that fit QuickBooks checks?
Yes. For QuickBooks and other accounting software, we recommend our #10 Double Window Envelopes. The top window displays the return address, and the bottom window displays the recipient's address, perfectly aligned to standard check formats to save you time.
What is a "Security Tint" envelope?
Security Tint envelopes feature a complex blue or black pattern printed on the inside. This makes the envelope opaque, preventing anyone from holding it up to the light to read confidential information like check amounts or Social Security numbers.
