My company’s office is housed in a building that also houses several other offices. I love the convenient location and spacious parking lot that my office provides to me and my clients. Not only that, but my rent is also extremely reasonable. Having low rent keeps my operating costs low which makes my business more profitable! The only problem I have with my situation is that my landlord won’t let me put a permanent sign outside the building. This problem was only temporary, however, as my landlord and I were able to resolve our disagreement.

THERE IS NO PROBLEM THAT CANNOT BE SOLVED

After a bit of research on signs and other ways of advertising my location without making any permanent additions to the exterior of my building, I decided that installing a vinyl banner above the door to my office was the best possible solution to my dilemma. My landlord was very supportive of my proposal, as I explained to him that the vinyl banner would make a minimal impact on the exterior of the building and could easily be removed should I ever move my office. I ordered a beautiful custom banner from a local banner maker and nailed the vinyl banner above my office door for all to see.

SOMETIMES SOLUTIONS BRING ON MORE PROBLEMS

At first, the vinyl banner looked great above my office door. Unfortunately, my satisfaction was soon replaced by disappointment, as a strong windstorm came through town about a week later and ripped the nails holding my vinyl banner clear out of their holes allowing my custom banner to fly away. I was lucky to find my vinyl banner in a tree down the street from my office with only minimal damage, but I was still upset that I now faced a whole new set of problems relating to my ability to mark the location of my office. The worst of the damage to the actual banner was that the holes where the nails had pierced the vinyl banner had ripped from the wind pressure, thus affecting the beauty of my custom banner.

AGAIN, FOR EVERY PROBLEM THERE IS A SOLUTION

I went back to my local custom banner maker and explained to him the problems I was having with the installation of my vinyl banner. Luckily, being the expert that he is, the custom banner maker provided me with two useful tips on how to prevent a vinyl banner from flying away.

GET YOURSELF MORE THAN JUST A COUPLE OF GROMMETS!

A grommet is a metal or brass eyelet that encases a hole in a vinyl banner so that the weight of the banner does not cause the vinyl to tear when the custom banner is displayed or hung from an elevated area. The vinyl banner maker said he would be happy to install a few extra grommets in my custom banner to distribute the weight of the banner across several grommets instead of only a few. The more grommets there are on a vinyl banner, the less weight each hole is forced to support. Ever heard the saying “strength in numbers”? That saying applies perfectly to this situation.

TIP #2: MAKE IT TAUT!

When you are hanging your custom banner on a wall, you want to make sure that you pull the banner very tightly against the wall so that there is very little, if any, slack. By doing so, you reduce the amount of air that is able to get behind the banner, thus preventing a strong windstorm from pulling the banner off of its perch. After speaking with my local banner maker, I realized that when I first hung my banner I did so carelessly and thus, my banner blew away in a strong windstorm.

I LOVE SOLUTIONS!

And there they are, my two wonderful recommendations! These two simple tips will prevent you from having to waste your time with trial and error. I hope you get as much joy out of these solutions as I have!
