Light Pole Banner Brackets


light pole banner bracketsLight pole banner brackets are mounting hardware for utility poles and light poles. They are designed to hold street pole banners safely and securely, while minimizing stress on the pole. We offer a variety of styles and sizes to fit most any street banner bracket need.

They all offer a high level of durability and performance with features such as cast aluminum construction for superior strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, banding channels to easily allow positioning of up to 3/4" wide banding to fasten casting to pole, and fiberglass arms that provide flexibility while maintaining strength, and absorb wind energy to reduce stress on the banner and the light pole.

The inherent flexibility of the arms allow the banner to return to its original taut position once wind subsides. Some models have Airow arms that increase the flexibility of the arm by up to 50% to dissipate even more wind energy, making them perfect for high wind areas or when extra wind load reduction is required.

See the Models & Prices tab below for information on the various models of light pole banner brackets, along with pricing and available options. The Specifications tab shows details and specs, the FAQ tab has answers to common questions, and the How to Order tab has detailed instructions for completing the Order Form.

BannerFlex D3
street pole banner brackets

  • 356T6 Heat-Treated Cast Aluminum for superior strength and durability, and corrosion resistance
  • Bolt Holes so casting may be easily bolted to poles in lieu of banding
  • Banding Channels easily allow positioning of up to 3/4" wide banding to fasten casting to pole
  • Arm Slide Flanges so banners can be installed or removed without moving or removing the Main Casting. Allows banner-length adjustment of 1” at both top and bottom of banner. Arms may be removed when no banners are installed
  • Dacromet-Coated Set Screws and Zinc-Plated Hitch Pins are corrosion resistant and allows for easy installation and adjustment. The Hitch Pin provides added security.
  • Warranty: 10 Years when properly installed and maintained
  • 4-Degree Cantilevered Casting (Top arm is canted up, bottom arm is canted down) so wind energy is transferred from banner to the fiberglass arm. Keeps banner trim and in tension and promotes banner longevity.
  • Eyelet Included in Casting allows for cable ties to be utilized through both the banner grommet and casting to secure banner providing added security from loss or theft.

What is the turnaround time?

Normal turnaround time is 4-5 days if you're ordering a graphic with your display hardware. For hardware only orders, the turnaround time is usually 1-2 days. During the order process you will be asked if you have a specific due date, and if you do, we will adjust your shipping method, if necessary, to get your order to you on time. If you need your order even quicker, we also have a rush service. If you authorize rush charges, we can get your order shipped the same day or the next day. Rush charges are typically 50% of your order up to a maximum of $75. If we're able to meet your deadline without bumping other jobs, we won't actually charge the rush charge, but you must authorize the rush to guarantee delivery.

How big should my files be to print well?
We recommend that bitmap images such as digital photos be 150dpi at the actual print size in order to look good from close range. Larger display graphics tend to viewed from further away, so if that's the case, lower resolution files of 72-100 dpi at the actual print size can be used and still look good from 5 feet away. We use special software to enlarge smaller images to their full print size, but the larger the original file, the better the results will be. If you're images are smaller than we recommend, which is common for larger prints, it's important to consider viewing distance as well. A print that shows a lack of resolution due to enlargement up close, might look just fine from arms length. We've printed images at 16 feet wide from 8 megapixel cameras that look very good from five feet away, so where a print will be displayed and how close you expect it to be viewed from are important to consider when deciding how large a print can be made. When in doubt, send us your file and we'll examine it and let you know how large we think it can go and still look good.
How are the light pole banner brackets installed?

The light pole banner brackets can be installed with 3/4" gear banding or bolted to the utility pole. There are full installation instructions available in the Specifications tab.
