Design Printing Installation Guide
Installing Your Vinyl Banner
Correct installation helps distribute tension and reduces unnecessary stress on the banner.
1
Choose Secure Mounting Points
Install the banner to a structurally appropriate surface or support system using the finishing configuration selected for your project.
2
Use All Available Grommets
When the banner includes grommets, distribute attachment points throughout the banner instead of loading only the corner grommets.
3
Apply Even Tension
Secure the banner evenly from side to side. Avoid excessive tension concentrated in one corner or mounting point.
Design Printing Installation Tip:
Use all available grommets whenever practical.
Evenly distributed attachment points can reduce
localized stress and help prevent premature damage
around the banner perimeter.
