Information on our Banner Supports

Standard System
The system comprises of a heavy gauge aluminium pole to which the banner is sleeved. The pole is secured into a steel electro-plated bracket with a removable plated locking pin. Plastic collars retain the banner from both sides (see our table below for safety limitations to size of banner).

The wall mount bracket is 75mm wide and 130mm deep. It has 4 pre-drilled holes suitable for M8 fixings. We can supply the M8 sleeve anchor bolts at 55mm or 70mm long.

Self-Tensioning System
Here is a true self-tensioning banner system that is low cost, high value, very effective and displays your graphics to their best effect whatever the weather. The standard system is good but does not compensate for expansion of PVC due to wind and heat. This leads to a 'slap' factor that can destroy both the banner and the fittings. Our self-tensioning system helps to alleviate these problems. Easy to install, easy to adjust, easy to see why this is going to be the system your customer prefers.

Banners using this self-tensioning method have to be made in a special way. We will gladly quote you for a blank banner or to finish your preprinted banners to this specification when being fitted to this system.

Maximum Recommended Banner Sizes
Banner Width 455mm 610mm 760mm 915mm
Maximum drop 4.5m 2.5m 1.75m 1.0m

Wire Supported System
Based on our very successful, competitively priced wall mounted banner pole, we have engineered a conversion kit that will safely handle banner sizes up to 6mtr x 1mtr.

This is a wall mounted heavy duty support that takes the strain out of fitting big banners. A system that helps you to keep the initial tension on the banner. Full instructions provided with kit.

It is important that a qualified engineer assesses the suitability of the structure to withstand the additional wind loading created by the installation of any of the assemblies on this page.
