Question

Where should I place ring holes or grommets in my design template?

Answer

Ring holes, also called grommets, are punched through the edges of banners and similar pieces for hanging. They are typically 3/8 inch in diameter, so give them room to avoid punching through important artwork.

  • Grommets are usually 3/8" in diameter.
  • Leave at least 1 inch of clear space on either side of the bleed where holes will sit.
  • Keep logos and text away from the hole zone so nothing is cut through.
  • Use a template from your printer that marks the exact hole placement for your product.
