Create a professional branded background for events, photography, red carpets, trade shows, press conferences and corporate presentations with a Custom Step and Repeat Backdrop from Design Printing.
The system combines a 9 oz wrinkle-free dye-sublimated fabric graphic with heavy-duty adjustable large-tube aluminum hardware. The telescoping frame can be adjusted in both width and height, while the low-sheen fabric helps create a cleaner appearance for photography and video.
A Professional Background for Photos, Events & Displays
The large-tube hardware provides a stronger foundation while the fabric graphic creates a clean, low-sheen background for photography and branding.
Photo-Friendly Fabric
The low-sheen wrinkle-free polyester is especially useful for step-and-repeat photography because it helps reduce harsh reflections from event lighting and camera flashes.
Adjustable Hardware
Telescoping poles allow the backdrop frame to adjust in both width and height, giving the system flexibility for multiple compatible graphic sizes.
Portable & Reusable
The hardware disassembles for transportation and storage, while the printed graphic can be removed and replaced for future events.

4-Step Backdrop Assembly
The following instructions use the actual hardware installation images for this backdrop system.
Connect the Horizontal Poles
Connect the two poles labeled A-B by joining the B-B ends. Repeat with the bottom poles C-D, then extend the telescopic A ends.
Attach the Vertical Poles to the Bases
Take vertical pole A-C and insert end C into the pole socket in the base. From underneath the base, thread the hex bolt into end C and tighten securely.
Insert the Poles Through the Graphic
Run horizontal poles A-B and C-D through the 3" pole pockets located at the top and bottom of the fabric graphic.
Secure the Frame
Use the black-handled thumb screws to secure the horizontal poles to the vertical poles. Adjust the telescoping sections as needed to tension and align the finished graphic.
3" Pole Pockets & Artwork Placement
The backdrop graphic includes hemmed 3" pole pockets on both the top and bottom.
Keep Important Content Clear of the Seams
Your submitted graphic should be built to the exact dimensions of the print being ordered. Because the backdrop has 3" pole pockets at both the top and bottom, the sewn pocket seams will be visible approximately 3" from the top and 3" from the bottom of the finished graphic.
