    Can anyone suggest a supplier of wall mounted banner-ups. To be fully printed both sides, with finials top and bottom. I could do these on the cadet but im not sure how to? Do you print 700mm banner then trim, as the banners are not to be hemmed on length only top + bottom to slide over finials. Any help would be great. Cheers

    Best to do [or ask for] a double hem, double stitch on the top and bottom pocket.
    This means you have to allow for the printed bleed on the top and bottom.
    You still need to be clever with the design to improve the way the finished banner looks.
    Also an eyelet on the corners closest to the wall [depending on system] and a cable tie will help.
    However it is still possible to loose 20 banners in one night – and then invoice “an act of god!”

    not what you are looking for, however production the same.

    Cheers 😀

    Wow. Thanks for all the help guys. Ill get on to these tomorrow.
    Andrew. Have you made these yourself in the past? Could you hem with glass tape? To be honest i have never tried banner printing since ive had the cadet. Mainly printed onto digital-banner vinyl then apply it to banner as normal, with requested text cut from banner cal.

    The customer has an “in house designer” who does all the artwork. Which suits me down to the ground as they are so picky its unbelievable, so im unsure about the design at the moment. But they have asked me to price for ten, inclusive of fitting. Just trying to get a figure in me head. Thanks again for the positives gents. Where would i be without the boards eh.
