Hang the Banner That Pulls the Crowd In

By the time the doors open on Black Friday, the banner overhead has already done the selling, one bold number readable from the far end of the parking lot. Order yours from $79 for a 2' x 4', print full color on durable 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl or light-blocking 15oz. BlackOut Vinyl, and size it anywhere from a standard 2' x 4' up to a custom 240 by 180 inches.

One weekend of sales usually covers the banner, since it costs less than a day of extra staff. It goes up and comes down in minutes, and the headline number works while your team runs the registers. Indoor, outdoor and business banners hang together on vinyl banners printing.

What Is a Black Friday Banner

A Black Friday banner is a large-format vinyl banner printed to advertise a retail sale, hung across a storefront, window, or entrance to announce discounts and pull in foot traffic. At 4OVER4 these banners print full color on 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl or 15oz. BlackOut Vinyl, in 24 sizes from a standard 2' x 4' up to a custom 240 by 180 inches, with hems and pole pockets set in the live configurator. For the rest of the storefront, the kit page lays out the 3-product Black Friday retail pack that fills your store.

Sized to be read across a parking lot, the heavy vinyl carries the one number that matters that weekend. Hang it over the entrance, drape it across the front windows or string it along a sale aisle inside. From $79 for a 2' x 4', it prints full color, goes up in minutes and comes down as fast when the sale ends.

Retail Black Friday Signage Bundle

A banner outside works hardest when the inside of the store repeats it. Shoppers on the last weekend of November are moving fast and comparing offers in a car park, so the number they read on the way in has to be the number they see on the shelf. This is what a store typically hangs together.

  • The outdoor banner. The headline offer above the entrance on 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl, one number, readable from the far end of the lot. Everything else in this list supports it.
  • Retail window clings. The glass either side of the door. Clings go on and come off without adhesive residue, which matters when the same window carries a different message in December.
  • Custom floor decals. Queue markers, arrows to the doorbuster aisle, and the offer repeated where people are already looking down while they walk.
  • Posters. Department by department, so the 40 percent on outerwear is stated in outerwear rather than only at the door.
  • Shelf talkers. The small card at the shelf edge that confirms the item in the customer's hand is the item in the deal. This is where sales are lost when the signage stops at the entrance.
  • Yard signs. Staked at the road, the lot entrance and the corner, catching traffic that was never going to look up at the fascia.

Print the set in one order and the discount wording, the typeface and the color stay identical across all six pieces. Print them across three weeks from three sources and they will not, and a shopper reading two different numbers believes the smaller one.

What Size Should a Black Friday Banner Be

4OVER4 Black Friday banners come in 24 sizes, starting at a standard 2' x 4' and scaling up through 2' x 5', 2' x 6', and 2' x 10', all the way to a custom banner as large as 240 by 180 inches. Size is the first thing to get right, because a banner has to be legible from wherever your customers first spot it. A 2' x 4' works for a door or a single window. Step up to 2' x 6' or 2' x 10' for a long run above the windows or along a fence, and go custom when you want the banner to cover the whole face of the building. All 24 sizes, both vinyls and every finishing option are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.

Size the banner against the building, not against a catalog. A banner reads as intentional when it spans most of the fascia or the window bay it hangs on, and as an afterthought when it floats in the middle of a wide frontage with a foot of brick showing either side. A 2' x 4' suits a single door, a narrow bay or an interior aisle end. A typical shop front wants something that runs most of the width above the glass, and the range goes to a custom 240 by 180 inches for a full building wrap or a multi bay retail unit.

Then set the letter height from the reading distance. The working rule in sign making is roughly 10 feet of comfortable reading distance for every inch of letter height, so a discount number in 4 inch type reads from about 40 feet, which is the far side of the pavement. Across a parking lot, at 100 feet or more, that number needs to be closer to 10 inches tall. This is the reason a Black Friday banner carries one number and three words instead of a list of departments: at that type size, there is no room for a second message.

Indoors and outdoors are different vinyls, not just different sizes. Durable 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl is the exterior choice, hung on the fascia or the railings, where wind and rain are the problem. 15oz. BlackOut Vinyl has a light blocking core, which is what you want for a banner hanging in a window or across an aisle with light behind it, because without that core the reverse of the print shows through and the front turns muddy.

Which Vinyl Should You Print On

4OVER4 prints Black Friday banners on 2 vinyls: 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl, a durable scrim vinyl for everyday indoor and outdoor sale signage, and 15oz. BlackOut Vinyl, a heavier stock with a gray light-blocking core that stops backlight and bleed-through. You choose the material in the configurator.

Most stores order the 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl: it handles weather, takes full-color ink cleanly and works in a window or lashed to a railing. The 15oz. BlackOut Vinyl is for a banner with light behind it, a bright window or a second banner, because its gray blockout core keeps the design solid from the front. Pick by where the banner hangs.

How Much Do Black Friday Banners Cost

Black Friday banners start at $79 for a 2' x 4' at 4OVER4. Go bigger and the price climbs with the square footage, which is fair since a banner sized for a full storefront uses far more vinyl than a window sign. The 15oz. BlackOut Vinyl, added hems, pole pockets, and a rush turnaround each nudge the total, and you see every change in real time as you build it.

Every order is backed by the 4OVER4.COM Gold Standard guarantees, so if you find the same banner cheaper elsewhere, the Price Match beats that quote by an extra 10 percent under the 110% price-match guarantee. Read the fine print on our guarantees before you buy, then build your banner and watch the total settle before you commit to anything.

How Do You Finish and Hang a Black Friday Banner

4OVER4 finishes Black Friday banners with your choice of 3 hem options (None, Top and Bottom Only, or All 4 Sides) and 5 pole-pocket options (None, 2" Top and Bottom, 4" Top and Bottom, and larger). Hems reinforce the edges so they resist fraying and tearing, and pole pockets sew a sleeve into the top and bottom so you can slide a rod or pipe through for a clean, frameless hang.

Hemmed edges fold and weld the vinyl back on itself so the corners do not fray or tear, and All 4 Sides reinforces every edge. For a hang with no visible hardware, pole pockets take a rod or a pipe through a sleeve at the top and bottom so the banner hangs flat and taut. Choose the finishing for your mount before you order.

How Do Black Friday Banners Compare to Our Other Banners

A Black Friday banner is a seasonal build of our standard vinyl banner, so if your sale runs longer than one weekend it is worth seeing the neighbors. The Indoor Banners start at $25 for interior signage, the Outdoor Banners match this banner at $79 for weatherproof outdoor use, and the Business Banners start at $43.92 for year-round branding. The chart below lines them up so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

How Fast Can You Get Black Friday Banners

4OVER4 prints Black Friday banners on a standard 3 business day turnaround, with 2 business day, next-day, and same-day rush speeds available. Black Friday does not move, so your banner cannot be late. Standard production keeps the price lowest, and when the calendar tightens you can move to 2-day, next-day, or same-day printing to make the deadline. Not sure the file is right? Choose the Free Online Proof and approve a digital proof before anything goes on the press, or send it Straight To Production when you know the art is clean. Same-day orders need to be approved early in the day to ship that afternoon from the New York plant.

Order By Dates for Black Friday Delivery

Black Friday moves every year, so work the dates backwards rather than looking for a fixed deadline. Start from the last shopping weekend in November and count back like this.

  1. Fix the hang date, not the sale date. The banner should be up before the week of the sale, because the traffic passing your door in the days before is the traffic you are trying to convert.
  2. Subtract the transit time for the shipping method you plan to use, from our plant to your address.
  3. Subtract 3 business days for standard production. That is the standard turnaround on this product.
  4. Subtract your own proofing time. Nothing enters production until the free online proof is approved, so a proof that sits in an inbox over a weekend costs you two of the days you just counted.

The date you land on is your standard order date. Order by it and you pay the standard rate. Miss it and the job is still printable: 2-day, Next-Day and Same-Day rush all exist for exactly this, and they cost more the shorter they get. Two things catch retailers out every year. Thanksgiving week has fewer working days than a normal week, so a 3 business day turnaround crosses more calendar days than you expect. And artwork is almost always the late piece, not the printing, so lock the discount percentage with whoever signs it off before you build the file.

See the Rest of Our Banners

Every other large-format sign we print sits in the complete print product range, and vinyl banners printing lists every size and style of banner, each with its own starting price.

Once the sale is over the same hardware carries the next message. Vinyl banner printing covers the full range of sizes, vinyls, hems and pole pockets for grand openings, clearance and everything after November, and the Black Friday printing collection gathers the window, floor, poster and yard pieces that hang alongside the banner in one place.
