Retractable Banner Stands

This is our least expensive retractable banner stand. It's made of lighter weight aluminum and plastic, so it's not going to be as durable or last as long as most of our stands, but it still comes with a 1 year warranty and is perfect for short term use and tight budgets.

We have this roll up banner stand made specially for us, which is why it's so inexpensive, and it features one of the only adhesive-free banner attachment systems among retractable banner stands.

This is another pull up banner stand that is made specifically for us, making it another excellent value. Its sturdy triangular base and durable, attractive design make in an excellent choice for a wide variety of uses.

While the Toucan is the same style with a similar appearance to the Econo Stand, and many inexpensive retractable banner stands on the market, it is actually a much higher quality product. It's made from heavy weight aluminum and is a very sturdy and solid banner stand.

The QuickSilver family of retractable banner stands offer excellent value and easy banner changes thanks to the use of velcro attachment to both the head rail and roller mechanism. There are 4 sizes available and the 24" wide model is one of the few full height banner displays we offer in a narrow width, and the 60" wide model is by far the least expensive oversized stand we sell.

The Sterling represents the latest in retractable banner stand technology. We had this stand made exclusively for us with all our favorite features. It offers a completely adhesive-free, tool-free banner mounting system that includes a snap rail on the removable roller mechanism and thumb screws that tighten by hand on the clamping head rail. Because the roller is removable, you can easily take it out to change the graphic by attaching it directly to the roller with the convenient snap lock rail. This means there is no adhesive, velcro, special parts or treatments needed to mount or change the banner so Sterling retractable banner stands are compatible with a wider variety of banner materials.

The Pacific family of retractable banner stands come in three sizes and are good quality, compact style banner displays with a fixed height and silver finish.

These retractable banner stands come in three sizes and are some of our most popular banner displays. The stylish base comes in anodized aluminum or black finish, and the head rail has been redesigned for greater security, making this an excellent mid-range option.

The Contender family of compact retractable banner stands are available in either a silver or black finish. They are among the tallest rollup banner stands we offer at over 103" tall. Their high quality and range of sizes makes them a good choice.

The Blade LX retractable banner stand has a stylish gun metal finish, and a modern design where the lid of the base opens up to allow the roller mechanism to be removed for easy graphics changes.

This pull up banner stand has many advanced features and is one of our favorites. It features easy graphic changes, adjustable tension, telescopic height, and one of the nicer carry bags. A high end retractable banner stand at a mid level price.

Panda retractable banner stands are the worlds first environmentally friendly trade show banner displays. This earth-friendly banner stand is fabricated with 90% plantation grown bamboo, making for a unique and attractive option.

The Imagine is a removable cassette retractable banner stand. This type of roll up banner stand has the graphic stored on a cassette that can easily be exchanged in a matter of seconds. Otherwise, the stand is almost the same as the popular Barracuda, but with the removable cassette feature.

The Banner Bug family of roll up banner stands are high quality displays that come with a lifetime warranty. The 7 different sizes of roll up banner stands in this family range from 23" to an incredible 72" wide, and all have easy graphics changes thanks to super thin velcro attachments.

The Expand MediaScreen 1 family are compact premium retractable banner stands that are slim and user-friendly with an attractive design. Like all Expand displays, the MediaScreen 1 is manufactured from the highest quality materials and features Swedish quality and design and includes a lifetime warranty making them an excellent choice for heavy duty use.

This premium retractable banner stand has many advanced features, such as adjustable tension, removable roller, telescopic height and a lifetime warranty. But, it's most unique feature is that it's designed so that the banner completely conceals the display from the front, so all you see is the banner. This also makes these the only roll up banner stands that can be placed together seamlessly.

The BannerUp Plus family features 48" and 60" wide models that are available in heights up to nearly 10' tall. They come with a 10 year warranty, solid construction and a deluxe travel bag.

Like all Expand displays, the QuickScreen 3 family of premium retractable banner stands feature Swedish quality and a lifetime warranty. They offer exchangeable graphic cassettes and come in 3 different widths with optional changeable colored end caps.

This is one of our favorite retractable banner stands, and one of the most advanced designs on the market. It has the Expand quality construction and lifetime warranty in a very attractive display that features a unique retractor mechanism that uses no springs. It's one of the easiest stands for graphic changes as well.

This display is almost identical to the Expand M2, but with a differently styled base.

As the name suggests, these retractable banner stands are oversized. They can be configured for use up to nearly 10' tall and were built to be used side-by-side to form even larger displays. The headrails have magnetic connectors to join them with adjacent displays to make setup quick and easy.

This unique display is a set of retractable banner stands in reverse. It consists of three retractable banner sections that are supported by adjustable height posts to make a three section backwall display where each section can be various heights and at varying angles, and the banners retract up instead of down.

The QuickSilver 2 offers excellent value and easy banner changes. It's our least expensive double sided retractable banner stand.

These double sided retractable banner stands come in three sizes and are some of our most popular banner displays. The stylish base comes in anodized aluminum or black finish, and the head rail has been redesigned for greater security, making this an excellent mid-range option.

This double sided pull up banner stand has many advanced features and is one of our favorites. It features easy graphic changes, adjustable tension, telescopic height, and one of the nicer carry bags. A high end retractable banner stand at a mid level price.

This is a double sided retractable banner stand with removable cassettes. It's basically the same as the Excalibur, but with the graphics on changeable cassettes.

The Expand MediaScreen 2 family are compact premium double sided retractable banner stands that are slim and user-friendly with an attractive design. Like all Expand displays, the MediaScreen 2 is manufactured from the highest quality materials and features Swedish quality and design and includes a lifetime warranty making it an excellent choice for heavy duty use.

For an inexpensive retractable banner stand, the Expo is our favorite model. It's one of the only retractable stands that doesn't require any adhesive or special treatments to attach the graphic to the banner stand. The head rail has a snap lock feature, as does the roller mechanism, so frequent graphic changes are no problem for this stand. The Prism is also an excellent option for a retractable stand with a larger base that doesn't require a swing out foot for stability. Personally, we prefer this style because it has a cleaner look, fewer moving parts, and takes up less floor space, but it's a little heavier with a slightly larger size when packed as a result. Both these stands come in a 33.4" width, which is a very nice size that gives you enough width to make an impact yet is still narrow enough to be easy to transport.

The QuickSilver stands are nice for a variety of reasons. They are inexpensive, but made well enough to hold up reasonable well over time and graphic changes are very easy. They are significantly cheaper than any other option we offer in the large sizes, and the travel case is one of the nicest at any price.

For a retractable banner stand with advanced features, the Barracuda is an excellent choice. It's telescopic so it can be used at different heights from 30" to 84", has a leaderless attachment to the roller mechanism, which makes for very easy graphic changes and good reliability. It also has adjustable tension on the roller mechanism so it can be adjusted if it looses tension over time or if more tension is needed to roll up a stiff graphics. It also has an excellent molded case. This retractable stand bridges the gap between the entry level stands, and the high end models because it has many of the features of high end retractable banner stands, but is still affordable.

For the top-of-the line retractable banner stands, the Expand M2 and Expand Media Screen 4 are our favorites. These retractable stands are not inexpensive, but for trade show pros or heavy duty users, these banner stands are well worth the cost due to their superior construction and lifetime warranties. These retractable banner stands are basically the same with a different exterior appearance, and the Swedish design is apparent in every aspect of these stands. They use a different technology for retracting the banner that eliminates the spring mechanism that's found in every other retractable stand. The Modular Tension System found in these banner stands cannot unwind causing the stand to be useless, because when the banner is retracted into the base, there is no longer tension in the roller. This is a difficult concept to grasp if you've used other retractable banner stands, but once you've tried this stand, using another retractable banner stand is like sitting in coach once you've flown in first class. The graphics are installed on super-light media rolls, and mounting the graphic is simple and requires no tools so it can be performed anywhere. Also, since the media rolls don't contain a spring mechanism like other cassette retractable displays, they are lighter and less expensive making it more cost effective to have multiple graphics available for your display.

If you're looking for an inexpensive alternative to a full popup booth that still looks professional for a back wall setup or for larger trade show banner displays, we have several options. The Aero Multi-Option Backwall consists of three separate retractable stands that roll from the top down, all connected by supports that allow the individual panels to be used at various angles and different heights. The effect is like putting multiple retractable banner stands together, but in a very professional way. The only down side to this stand is that it's not as tall as some of the retractable banner stands, and it's not as portable since it packs into three bags with two of them holding the round bases.

We also have the Expand MediaScreen XL, which are retractable banner stands with graphic widths of either 39.375 or 47.25" and a height of up to 118 1/8". These large retractable banner stands have unique magnetic connectors on the ends of the head rails so multiple units can be easily linked together to form a display of 8', 12', 16' or more wide.

For a seamless wall, the Alligator retractable banner stands are the only models where the graphic extends edge to edge and completely hides the base so multiple stands can be placed together with no gaps between the graphics. These stands also have magnetic connectors in the head rails to link the stands together. The stands must be placed at angles to one another for the seamless effect. See the Alligator product page for more details on this limitation.

Another option for large banner displays are the Banner Bug retractable banner stands. We carry these retractable stands in a variety of sizes, but the largest size is an incredible 6 feet wide. Obviously at such a large size, they are a more difficult to transport, but if you want to make a really big and seamless impact, these banner stands will allow you to do it.

We offer several options with each stand so you can choose the qualities and price that suit your needs. All our options offer excellent print quality, are waterproof, tear resistant and fade resistant, so any choice you make will be a quality product.

The Economy banner is the least expensive option, but it tends to curl inward on the sides.

The Standard Curl Free Blockout banner is our overall favorite. It's engineered to hang flat without any edge curl, and overall it hangs the flattest of all our banner options. It has very good color, is opaque so no light will show from behind and cast shadows on the banner, and has a high-end, fabric-like low gloss finish.

The Premium banner is the finest material available. It's printed at the same quality as our fine art reproductions, has a textured polycarbonate finish for the ultimate in durability, and is opaque. It hangs very flat but does develop a memory when retracted which causes the banner to curl when it's first setup each time. The material will relax after several hours, but that can be an issue in some circumstances where the banner must be setup for immediate viewing.

For banner stands ordered with banners, normal turnaround time is 3-5 days plus shipping time, depending on the model you order. Hardware only orders usually ship within 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.

We don't keep every size and model in stock because we carry so many different styles. We do carry the most popular options in stock, and the models we don't carry are usually in stock in our manufacturer's warehouses. Even the models we don't stock can ship within 3-5 days, or faster for rush orders. For hardware only orders, we ship from whichever location is closest to you for the fastest and least expensive delivery.

Yes, we sell all our banner stands with or without a banner. If you don't already have a banner, we obviously recommend having us print and install the banner for you, since we provide top quality printing and banner materials at very competitive prices, but the choice is yours. There are instructions, specs and templates for each banner stand on each product page to assist you both with designing your banner and installing them for those who want to provide their own banner.

We do offer far more models than any other company that we are aware of, and the reason is that they are all different. In general, many of them seem similar, but each one has unique features so that no two of them are the same. Believe it or not, there are far more models available that we don't offer because where two models are basically the same, we only offer what we consider to be the best of the two. But, that still leaves a huge selection, which can seem a bit overwhelming. That's why we provide suggestions in the Our Recommendations tab to help those who are undecided. But, we frequently get calls from people who are looking for a specific set of features in a banner stand, and often there is only one model that will fit all their requirements, and that's why we have so many models. That way we are more likely to have exactly what you need, rather than making you settle for something that isn't quite what you wanted.

We offer multiple banner options for the same reason we offer so many stands, so that you can get exactly the combination you want. Each banner material we offer is a quality product that is tear proof, water proof, and fade resistant and printed in full color at high resolution. The differences are in their other qualities. Our Economy banner tends to curl inward on the edges, so we offer it because it's the least expensive, high quality material for those on a tight budget who don't mind the edge curl. Our Standard Curl Free Blockout banner is a high end material that will hang flat without edge curl, but it's a little more expensive, so while most people choose this option, we didn't want to force a more expensive material on those people who would rather live with some edge curl and save the money. The Premium banner is for those who want the very best banner stand material available, need the extra durability of a laminated graphic, and don't mind the added expense.

That depends on your priorities. If you want the least expensive banner, the Economy banner is the best choice. If you want the banner that hangs the flattest, the Standard Curl Free Blockout banner is the best. If you want the most durable banner with fine art print quality, then the Premium banner is the best choice.

As we've said before, all our banners are quality materials with excellent print quality and durability, so in that regard, you can't make a bad choice. The Standard Curl Free Blockout banner is by far the most popular material we offer. It has excellent color, a high-end fabric-like finish, and hangs the flattest of any material we offer. The Premium banner also hangs flat, but it has a memory and will curl each time it's set up until it has time to relax, which usually takes several hours.

While most of our customers provide us with a file for printing their banners, we can also design your banner stand graphics for you. We've found in most cases, our customers have an idea of what they want, and often already have logos, photos and the wording they want on the banner. In that case, the design or setup of the file takes much less time and is therefore less expensive than a full design where we would come up with the concept, the images, etc. In a case where you have all the elements and just need us to set them up in a professional and attractive manner, the cost usually runs from $25-$75. For situations where we need to do a bit more work and get high resolution images for you, the cost is generally in the $75-$100 range. Full design work from concept to finished product can run from $250-$500 or more.

When you place your order, there will be a place where you can indicate that you need us to do your design. When you choose that option, we will contact you to discuss your needs and give you an estimate before any work begins.

One each product page their is a Specifications tab that contains the specifications, instructions, and graphic templates for that product. The graphic templates are usually provided in both pdf and Illustrator eps formats. If you need information that is not provided, please contact us and we'll be happy to get you the information you need.

Yes, the installation of the banner in the stand is included so your stand is ready to go when you receive it.

Some models of retractable banner stands are telescopic, which means their support pole is not a fixed height but extends and can be set do different heights. If you look at the specifications tab for each model, it will show the range of sizes that you can use a specific telescopic banner stand. You can also look at our Retractable Banner Stand Comparison Chart to quickly see which models are telescopic and their range of sizes.

For retractable banner stands that are not retractable, most can be used at different sizes by using only one or two sections of the support pole, instead of all three. With some models you may have to cut the elastic cord that holds the sections of pole together, but with others, you can simply let them hang and remain connected. If you need this capability, contact us and we can give you information on the sizes that a particular model can be set to by using different pole sections.

Yes, all banner stands are designed so the banners can be changed, but some have methods of attaching the banner that are easy than others. The most common attachment of the banner to the retractor mechanism is through the use of a leader material that is attached to the roller on one end. The banner is attached to the other end of the leader since with most designs, you don't have access directly to the roller mechanism. Other styles do give you access to the roller through various methods, so those generally don't have a leader as it's not necessary in those cases.

The most common method for the top rail to attach to the banner is by a clamping action or snap rail. With this style, the head rail opens and snaps closed on the banner to grip it firmly. Other methods include a clamping rail with set screws, velcro attachment, or a specially designed piece that sticks to the banner and fits in a channel in the headrail.

Some cheap banner stands have head rails where the banner simply sticks to an adhesive strip, but we've found that method to be unreliable and it makes changing the banner very difficult, so we don't offer any models that rely solely on double stick tape to support the banner.

The cost for a replacement banner will obviously vary depending on the banner material selected, as well as the particular model of stand the banner is for, since the size varies between models. The easiest way to determine the cost of a replacement banner is to look at the hardware only price for a particular stand, and deduct that from the cost of the stand with the banner of your choice. The difference will be the cost of a replacement banner.

This is up to you and we do provide instructions for changing the banner should you want to do it yourself. Some of our models have extremely easy graphic changes, and others are a little more involved. We are always happy to change the banner for you, but there is the additional cost of shipping the banner stand back and forth, so many people prefer to change the banner themselves to save money. In fact, that's one of the selling points of some of our most expensive models such as the Expand M2. Even though it's one of the more expensive stands, the fact that the graphic change is so simple means it can save you money over time because you won't have to pay to ship your stand back and forth for every graphic change. And, with it's lifetime warranty, it can easily turn out to be less expensive in the long run.

Our order form does not currently provide shipping costs, so if you need to know the cost for shipping in advance, you will need to contact us. We'll need to know the particular stand you want to order, the shipping address, and the shipping method you want to use. We will then be able to get you an estimate on the shipping cost. For the majority of our banner stands, ground shipping runs $15-$25 depending on the model and where you are located. Larger stands and faster shipping methods will obviously cost more.

If you're going to ship your banner stand, you should use the box it was shipped in. The same is true for checking them as luggage, although in our experience, even the shipping box may not be enough to protect the stand when checking it with an airline. Small stands can usually be brought as carry on items, or we also sell various hard shipping cases that will protect the stand if you check it with an airline or ship it with any common carrier such as UPS or FedEx.

There are quantity discounts available on both the banners and the stands. The discounts on the banner printing are for multiple copies of the same design, and are available at quantities of 2, 10, 25, 50, etc. Discounts on the hardware start at quantities of 11. Contact us for the discounted prices for your particular job.

Yes, we can provide replacement banners for any stand, whether or not it's one we sell. It may be necessary for you to send us the stand so we can be sure the banner is printed at the correct size and with the correct specifications to work properly, but otherwise, it should not be any problem.

Since we sell such a huge selection of stands, the odds are good that we can provide repair or replacement parts for you. There are some brands that we don't work with and can't get replacement parts for, but if the stand is not under warranty anyway, we may be able to repair it for you, since the design of most stands is the same. Contact us with your specific situation and we'll be happy to help you if we can.
