This is the most common finishing, and is useful for a variety of applications. It is best for mounting against a wall or fence.

Style A Vinyl Banner mounting option
Style B Vinyl Banner mounting option

Style B: Hemmed edges with grommets at the top and bottom as needed, with rope sewn into the top and bottom hems. The rope ends extend out from the banner edge making ties. Rope length can be specified.

This finishing style adds versatility and strength to the basic grommet style, allowing the banner to be tied between poles or other secure fixtures.

Style C: Hemmed edges with rope sewn into the top and bottom hems. Rope extends from banner making ties. Rope length can be specified.

For vinyl banners tied between secure fixtures, this has strong construction, as it spreads wind forces over the length of the banner.

Style C Vinyl Banner mounting option
Style D Vinyl Banner mounting option

Style D: Hemmed sides with webbing sewn into top and bottom. Webbing extends as needed for ties.

This is an even stronger construction for vinyl banners that may be subjected to higher wind loads.

Style E: Hemmed sides, webbing top and bottom with grommets spaced as needed (depending on banner size).

Adding grommets offers more tie down points. This is especially helpful to support larger vinyl banners and to eliminate sagging. (Make sure the supporting structure will allow for it.)

Style E Vinyl Banner mounting option
Style F Vinyl Banner mounting option

Styles F: To support banners on hardware, sleeves can be sewn into the top and bottom of the banner. The sleeve can be sized to fit the hardware: the circumference (dia. X 3.14) of the supporting pole divided by 2 plus an inch will calculate a good sleeve size.

Style G: Grommets can be added to the top and bottom in an extra extension above and below the sleeves for more versatility in display options.

Style G Vinyl Banner mounting option
Style H Vinyl Banner mounting option

Style H: Street banners (or light pole banners) are usually finished with top and bottom sleeves with a grommet just below the top sleeve and just above the bottom sleeve.

Style I: For a very strong construction which will be attached using ties you supply, sewn in webbing with "D" rings offers a very reliable solution. When adding tie points to large vinyl banners, grommets can be added to the top and bottom, or even on the sides.

Style I Vinyl Banner mounting option

All vinyl banners can be used indoors or out. How the banners will be used (displayed), normally prescribes how the banner is finished. When displaying banners outside, always think safety first. Be sure the supporting structure is sound. Vinyl banners hung out in the open can be subject to significant wind loads. Be sure you secure your vinyl banner well using the instructions included with your order.


Installation and Displaying Banners

Custom vinyl banners are extremely easy to install, and can be displayed in a variety of ways.

It is important that your vinyl banner is installed properly, so each of our custom banner customers receive a fully illustrated Banner Installation & Display Guide with every order to make sure their brand new vinyl banner stays looking new for years to come.

"Exactly what is your minimum order for custom vinyl banners?"

The minimum order for a custom vinyl banner is simply one!

Quantity discounts start out with merely two custom vinyl banners. Of course, the more you purchase at once, the greater you'll save (like all our custom signs).

Although custom vinyl banners are sold by other sign companies, we aren't a giant fan of using PVC Plastic Sign material outdoors. PVC Plastic Signs are responsive to solar heat which may cause the plastic sign material to warp. Plus, there's hardly any price savings over the predictable qualities of aluminum.

"Do you give any quantity discounts for custom vinyl banners?"

Sure!

The greater number of custom vinyl banners you obtain, the less each will cost. Because of this your custom vinyl banners can reach an increased number of people for the more cost-efficient price!

"What if my custom vinyl banner arrives with a flaw or possibly dented...what can be done?"

If your custom vinyl banners or another product shows up defective or possesses manufacturing defects, please call Customer Support via Live Chat or phone us at 1-800-899-6272 immediately. Manufacturing defects fall under our Workmanship Guarantee, so we will replace your sign free.

If you are trying to get us after business hours, you could e-mail us at service@SignsUS.com and we will respond as soon as business hours resume.

"What is the best tear resistant banner material to use outdoors?"

For most outdoor vinyl banners, we recommend our Heavy Duty, High Gloss (14 ounce) BannerMax Material. The component that makes a vinyl banner “heavy duty” is the nylon scrim that is woven into the waterproof fabric. This strong, tight weave provides tear resistance during high winds.

However, even when using heavy duty vinyl banner material, the grommets (eyelets) can tear right out of the corners if the banner is not hung properly.


"Can I make my custom vinyl banner two-sided?"

Yes! SignsUS offers ghost-free, two-sided vinyl banners!

Standard vinyl banner material is “translucent”. In other words, you can see the light right through it. So if you put letters on both sides of standard banner material, a faint ghost image of the letters are visible on the other side of the banner. This ghosting effect can distract you’re your message and doesn’t look professional.

Therefore by specifying a “16 ounce blockout banner material” for your double-sided vinyl banners, you will avoid the see-through effect while adding significant strength to your custom banner For maximum durability and wind resistance, double-sided vinyl banners should have hems and grommets placed every 30”.

"Do street banners have special requirements?"

Yes, street banners do have special requirements

Most municipalities now have strict rules regarding how over-the-street vinyl banners are to be made. It’s a matter of public safety. We know these requirements and routinely provide street banners for special events, parades and festivals.

Street banners should be made using 20 ounce, extra heavy duty blockout vinyl banner material with a super tough webbing sewn into the hem for extra reinforcement. Grommets should be placed every 2’. Wind slits substantially reduce wind loads and are now usually required by municipalities on all vinyl street banners.

"How do I know that my custom vinyl banner will turn out the way I want?"

Are you concerned that your custom banner may not turn out the way you want?

After all, we are probably hundreds of miles away from you so how can you be certain your order will turn out right? Fortunately, it only takes seconds to transmit full-color custom vinyl banner designs from our computer to yours because e-mails travel so fast these days.

Upon order approval, here’s how the process works:

  1. First, your order goes straight to the Art Department
  2. Our Graphic Designer will then e-mail you a proof

  3. Once you review the layout, let us know if you would like to see any changes, and …
  4. If you have any changes, we will e-mail you proofs as needed until you’re completely happy with your design.

"What is the best tear resistant banner material to use outdoors?"

For most outdoor vinyl banners, we recommend our Heavy Duty, High Gloss (14 ounce) BannerMax Material. The component that makes a vinyl banner “heavy duty” is the nylon scrim that is woven into the waterproof fabric. This strong, tight weave provides tear resistance during high winds.

However, even when using heavy duty vinyl banner material, the grommets (eyelets) can tear right out of the corners if the banner is not hung properly.


"Do street banners have special requirements?"

Yes, street banners do have special requirements

Most municipalities now have strict rules regarding how over-the-street vinyl banners are to be made. It’s a matter of public safety. We know these requirements and routinely provide street banners for special events, parades and festivals.

Street banners should be made using 20 ounce, extra heavy duty blockout vinyl banner material with a super tough webbing sewn into the hem for extra reinforcement. Grommets should be placed every 2’. Wind slits substantially reduce wind loads and are now usually required by municipalities on all vinyl street banners.

"What is the best type of banner material to use indoors?"

The same banner material that’s used for outdoor banners is great for indoor banners too. If your audience is going to be viewing your banner up close though, we offer a premium “Super Smooth” banner material option at no additional charge.

"Which type of banner material is recommended for trade shows?"

However, since a trade show is where everyone is “showing off”, there is a more popular, higher end option to consider to make sure your booth really stands out in the crowd.

If you wish to project the best possible Corporate Image, there’s nothing better than a full-color Flexible Plastic Banner (yes, plastic).

Our premium trade show banners are printed directly onto the plastic film using our high resolution, full-color printer and then protected with a laminate film on the back to preserve the image from show to show.

"Do my custom banner signs need professional help?"
