Kenteken

Kenteken font by Lefly is a free decorative display typeface with the unmistakable grit of license-plate lettering. Its tall, straight-sided letters, uniform stroke weight, and crisp horizontal caps give text a solid, stamped-on-metal feel, as if it’s been pressed into enamel or steel. The rhythm is tight and disciplined, so even short words hit like bold signage rather than delicate typography.

Using Kenteken, you can bring that industrial, roadside character to posters, vehicle graphics, racing numbers, event branding, editorial headings, and bold wayfinding systems. This free font shines when set in all caps and given plenty of horizontal space to breathe; pair it with a clean geometric sans for body copy to keep the overall look sharp and functional.
