Custom Vinyl Banners
Need a bold sign fast — for a grand opening, a weekend sale, or an event this month? Vinyl banners are the quickest way to get a full-color message up, and unlike our channel letter and LED sign work, banners are something we print, finish, and often install ourselves, right here in our Burleson shop. No fabrication partner and no extra hand-off — just your artwork, our printer, and a fast turnaround.
What Custom Banners Are Best For
Banners cover a lot of ground: grand openings, sales, event sponsorships, temporary signage while a permanent sign sits in permitting, real estate and "coming soon" messaging, construction-site branding, and fence-line advertising for a property under development.
They're the fastest, most affordable way to test a message before committing to something permanent — a seasonal promotion, a one-time event, a lease-up campaign that ends when the last unit rents. Thinking banner now, permanent sign later?
Our
custom signs page lines up banners against channel letters, cabinet signs, and monument signs — permanent illuminated signage takes a survey, a permit, and weeks of lead time; a banner takes days and, for most short-term uses, no permit at all.
Materials, Sizes & Finishing
13oz Scrim Vinyl
The standard, durable choice for most indoor and outdoor uses; holds color well and handles moderate wind without issue.
18oz Heavy Duty Vinyl
Thicker material for banners that need to survive rough handling or a long outdoor run measured in years rather than weeks.
Mesh Vinyl
Perforations let wind pass through, which matters for fence banners exposed to open Texas gusts; it trades a bit of color saturation for a banner that won't tear out its grommets in a storm.
Backlit Vinyl
A translucent material built for lightbox and illuminated frame applications, printed so the graphic reads correctly whether lit from behind or seen in daylight.
Double-sided Banners
Double-sided banners are printed and laminated so the message reads correctly from both directions, common for fence lines and hanging displays.
Finishing Options
Hemmed edges with grommets spaced to standard intervals for hanging, pole pockets for banner stands and frames, or Velcro edges for step-and-repeat backdrops.
Full-color Edge-to-Edge
Full-color, edge-to-edge printing has no limit on colors or photos, unlike cut-vinyl lettering, with UV-cured inks that resist fading through a Texas summer better than older solvent prints.
Turnaround & Installation
Because we print and finish banners in-house, turnaround is fast — most standard orders are ready in 1 to 3 business days once you approve the design, and rush jobs are often possible with a call ahead.
Most short-term event and promotional banners don't need a permit in Fort Worth or Burleson; one mounted long-term as building signage, or functioning as your primary storefront identification, can fall under local sign code, and we'll flag that if it applies.
We can install it for you — on a building, fence, or freestanding frame — or hand it over with grommets ready to hang yourself.
A banner's realistic lifespan outdoors depends heavily on exposure: a banner facing south in full Texas sun will fade and stiffen faster than one under an awning or facing north, and heavy wind exposure shortens the life of grommets even on well-made material.
If you expect to reuse a banner season after season, 18 oz. vinyl and reinforced corners are worth the small upcharge over the standard 13 oz. build.
Why Sign Shop of Burleson
Banners are one of the few sign types we make entirely ourselves, start to finish. No outside fabrication partner sits between your order and your banner, which is why we can turn most jobs around in days instead of weeks — and why you can call the shop that actually printed it if something needs a fix, a reprint, or a last-minute size change.
"Very reasonably priced and excellent turn around time. He does small to big jobs and is all about customer service." — Roger Mueller

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Vinyl Banners
How much does a custom banner cost, and how fast can I get one?
A standard 3x6 or 4x8 vinyl banner with grommets typically runs $75 to $250 depending on material and finishing. Most orders are ready in 1 to 3 business days once you approve the proof. Larger, mesh, double-sided, or multi-banner orders may cost more and could add a day for production. Send us your size and deadline, and we'll provide a same-day quote, letting you know if a rush timeline is realistic.Will an outdoor banner hold up in Texas wind and sun?
Standard 13 oz. vinyl holds up well for months to a couple of years outdoors. However, in wide-open, wind-exposed spots like fence lines or rooftops, mesh (wind-slit) vinyl is recommended as it allows gusts to pass through, preventing tears. Direct summer sun can fade colors over time, especially for south- and west-facing installs. Let us know where your banner will be placed, and we’ll guide you to the right material and finishing.What sizes and finishing (grommets, hems, pole pockets) do you offer?
We offer standard sizes from a 2x4 sidewalk banner up to 4x8 for building faces, with larger options for building wraps or event backdrops. Finishing options include hemmed edges with grommets for even hanging, pole pockets for mounting, and Velcro edges for step-and-repeat backdrops. Share your installation method, and we’ll customize the finishing to suit your needs.Can you do a rush banner for an event this week?
Yes, often we can accommodate rush orders. Since we print in-house, we’re not dependent on outside vendors. Call or text us with your event date, and we’ll provide a clear answer on whether we can meet your timeline, including options for simpler designs or smaller sizes to expedite the process.Vinyl vs. mesh banner — which for outdoor?
Solid 13 oz. or 18 oz. vinyl gives you the sharpest color and is the right call for most short-term outdoor use — sidewalks, entrances, building faces, anything reasonably sheltered from direct gusts. Mesh vinyl trades a little color vibrancy for wind resistance, so it's the better pick for fence lines, open lots, or anywhere gusts are a real factor, especially for banners that'll be up for weeks or months rather than a single weekend. If you're not sure, tell us where it's hanging and we'll recommend the material and get you a quote.
