Questions, answered

Need this done for you? We handle Banners & Wide Format for businesses across Buffalo and the Twin Cities.

How far apart should banner grommets be?

Every 2 feet (24 inches) is the common standard, with a grommet in each corner. Bigger or windier banners benefit from tighter spacing.

Do I need wind slits?

For larger outdoor banners, wind slits or a mesh material let air pass through and reduce stress on the banner and grommets in gusty spots. We’ll recommend the right option for your location.

What is a hem?

A hem is the folded, reinforced edge where grommets are set. Hemmed edges all around make a banner far more durable — we hem as standard on outdoor banners.
