How to Take Care of your Banner Sign

You've spent money to design a banner sign that has the ideal colors, the exact message you want. It's all you could ask for and more. But when it was hung up to display a terrible accident happened. The grommet was torn from the corner of the banner. It can no longer be displayed, unless you leave the corner hanging down. We know that is not a good choice, so what can you do?

We've got great news! Our sign experts can do a little "doctoring" to your banner and save it. No need to call an ambulance, just contact us and we'll work with you to get your digital banner sign on the mend.

The tearing out of a grommet is the most common accident that happens with banner signs. This is typically caused by the pulling when hanging the sign. You also add stress on the banner if you only use the corner grommets to carry the weight of the banner. You can prevent this from happening if you distribute the weight across a rope that's woven across the length of the banner. This can then be tied off the same as if you used only the corners.

However, the prevention does no good if the problem has already occurred. But the good news is that the procedure to fix banner signs is quite simple and can be done in a short period of time.

A piece of matching vinyl is cut larger then the tear. The additional amount of material is used to allow overlap. This holds the vinyl together better. A specialized tape is then used to bond the new vinyl to the original banner sign. Once the new vinyl is adhered to the banner, a new grommet is attached to the banner in the same place as the previous one. A procedure that will extend the life of your custom banner is now complete. 

Will my banner sign have scars?

Unfortunately there will be signs of the repair. However they will only be visible close up. If your custom banner sign is being hung where people can't come right up to it, then the repair will be close to invisible. We make great efforts to assure that your banner sign looks as close to the original condition as possible.

Now you know if your banner sign happens to have a grommet torn out, there's no reason to get rid of it. You simply need a professional to do a repair.
