Why Choose Vispronet?
Durable Mounting Hardware
The included pole banner hardware is built to withstand harsh weather elements. Our mounting brackets are crafted from rust-resistant cast aluminum that will support whichever mounting method you choose.
The included mounting poles are made built from aviation-grade fiberglass, to hold your pole banner securely in windy weather. All our pole banners are finished with brass grommets to further secure them and keep them anchored against the pole in windy weather conditions.
Reinforced Grommets and Pole Pockets
Grommets are added for extra reinforcement to ensure the banner will not tear or rip during strong winds and heavy storms. Our grommets are crafted to be extremely durable and completely rust free for the life of your banner.
Our light pole banners come with double-hemmed pole pockets sewn by our expert sewing team for extra reinforcement in poor weather and windy conditions.
High-Quality Pole Banners
While most of our competitors offer 13oz vinyl, Vispronet offer 18oz and 23oz vinyl among other material options. Both our 18oz and 23oz vinyl are extremely durable, tear resistant, and perfect for displaying outdoors. They are designed to be displayed all year round, whether that means summer or winter, rain or shine. All the vinyl materials we offer are designed to be water-resistant and UV-resistant so that they’ll look just as vibrant outdoors as they will indoors.
The blue scale (DIN 53387) test helps figure out a general assessment of both the material and the inks that we use for our pole banners. Each of our vinyl banners are rated 8 out of 8 on the DIN 53387 scale, so they’ll last several seasons in moderate sunlight.
Hassle-Free Assembly and Installation
Our street pole banners are designed for hassle-free assembly on any lamp post or street pole. Attach the top mounting bracket to your pole at the desired height, then screw together with a drill or screwdriver. Thread the mounting arm onto the bracket, then follow up with the graphic itself, which can be secured with a zip-tie. Reverse the process to attach the second mounting bracket. Slide the mounting arm into the graphic, then attach the mounting bracket to the pole at the required height for a taut fit. Connect the mounting arm to the mounting bracket - and your lamp post banner is ready to go.

Printing Specs
How do you print your banners?
For our vinyl pole banners – they are digitally printed using UV-resistant inks. This makes them water-resistant as well as UV-safe for outdoor use. Our fabric material options are printed using dye sublimation for outstanding, full-color, fade-resistant color reproduction.
Are your banners printed only single-sided or do you offer double-sided printing as well?
Yes, we do offer double-sided printing. Our polyester banners are offered with single-reverse which means they are printed on one side only, with the print bleeding through to create an image in reverse on the opposite side of the flag. We also offer our double-sided option for our vinyl banners which means that two banners are printed and sewn together with a piece of fabric in between to block any light from passing. This double-sided style produces a more vibrant and detailed display. This also allows for different designs on each side of the banner.
Materials and Durability
What materials do you offer for your light pole banners?
We offer four material types for this product. These include our:
- 18oz Opaque Vinyl - weather resistant, UV-protected, anti-curl, with a satin finish
- 23oz Opaque Vinyl - heavy duty, 100% opaque, UV-protected, anti-curl with a satin finish
- Outdoor Flag Polyester - tear resistant, knitted fabric
- 300D Polyester - heavy-duty, water-resistant, scratch-proof, flame-retardant fabric option
Will weather damage my pole banners? Will my custom design fade?
We have designed our banners to be weather resistant. Each banner has grommets included so you can secure them to the pole in high winds with zip ties or something similar. Each banner is digitally printed with UV-resistant inks, or dye sublimated, for fade-resistance and the ability to withstand prolonged sun exposure. Your light pole banners may start to fade over an extended period like any outdoor banners or signs. Your design will never wear off.
Hanging Hardware
Am I able to buy a banner without the hardware? Can I buy the hardware without the banner?
Yes! You certainly can buy just hardware if needed as well as just a custom pole banner. When you are configuring your product, navigate to the first dropdown “Order Type”. Click the down arrow and select either “Prints and Hardware”, “Prints Only”, or “Hardware Only”.
How many brackets do you need to hang one banner?
2 heavy duty pole brackets and fiberglass poles are included in your order for standard sized banners options #1 & 2. Options 3 & 4 only include one bracket and fiberglass holding pole per banner. We also offer steel ties - depending on how large the pole banners are.
Care and Storage
How do I remove wrinkles from my vinyl?
If you must remove any small wrinkles left from the shipping process, simply lay your light post banners out in the sun for a couple hours and all wrinkles will smooth out. Simply installing your banners in the sun will also smooth the wrinkles out.
For more information on how to remove wrinkles from vinyl, check out this blog post.

Pole Banners Assembly Instructions
Assembly Hardware
A. Zip ties
B. Eyelet screws
C. Stainless steel bands
D. Fiberglass poles & mounting brackets
E. Eyelet bracket (Options 3, 4, and 7 only)
Pole and Bracket Assembly
NOTE: Divide the number of steel bands by the number of brackets to determine how many steel bands are needed per bracket.
- Determine the height of the top mounting bracket. Wrap the steel bands around the pole, and feed the end of the steel band through the tension buckle while the hex screw is in the “open” position.
- Place the mounting bracket between the steel bands and the pole. Make sure the eyelet screw hole on the bracket is facing in towards the banner. Pull the steel bands tight and push the screw to the “closed” position. Tighten the screw with a drill or screwdriver to secure it to the pole. Repeat for the other steel bands./li>
- Once the mounting bracket is secured to the pole, insert the eyelet screw into the bracket and screw it into place. This will stabilize the fiberglass pole.
- Slide the banner’s top pole sleeve onto the pole and secure with a zip tie.
- Determine the placement of the bottom mounting bracket by pulling the banner down until it is taut. Slide the bottom pole into the banner’s bottom pole sleeve and set the bottom bracket into place. Repeat steps 1 - 3 to secure the bottom bracket.
- Once the bottom bracket is assembled, secure the banner with a zip tie.
Eyelet Bracket Assembly
- Determine the position of the eyelet bracket(s). Wrap a steel band around the pole and thread it through the bracket while the hex screw is in the “open” position. Feed the end of the steel band through the tension buckle, then pull the steel band tight and push the screw to the “closed” position. Tighten the screw with a drill or screwdriver to secure it to the pole.
- Once the bracket is assembled, secure the banner by attaching the zip tie to the banner’s grommet and the bracket.
