Engineering Optimal Fastening Systems
A wrongly positioned or non-professionally set up banner isn’t just a mess to look at, it can also cause safety hazards and property damage. Our team performs a site evaluation to determine banner wind load, best fastening system, grommet spacing, tension distribution, and surface conditions—these assessments ensure a secure, professional-looking, and effective installation. For the highest level of assurance, we place reinforced tie-downs, set up strategic anchor points, and cut wind slits when needed to keep your banner from tearing and ensure it looks its best.

Our team will handle all the heavy lifting and small details, from pulling permits and prepping surfaces to securely tying down your banner and cleaning up after installation.

How does Banner Installation Work?
Your banner is only as effective as its installation—even the best-looking banner can’t succeed with a substandard installation. Our team guarantees a process that positions your banner for success: site assessment and preparation, precise fitting, expert mounting, and finishing that optimizes every display detail. We install banners that meet safety regulations, look great, and survive tough weather conditions. Here’s how we do it:
Consultation & Material Review
Let’s begin with a conversation. We will assess your project goals, review placement type (indoor or outdoor), recommend suitable banner materials (vinyl, mesh, fabric), and share options for optimal sizing to maximize visibility. Our experts will guide you in choosing the right banner hanging hardware based on where and how you plan to display it, including options for wall-mounted, suspended, or pole-attached banners.
Size Assessment & Photo Evaluation
Next, our installers will examine the area in person or use detailed photos to review the site. This allows us to understand the structure and space, local wind pressure, height off the ground, and type of mount required.
Permit Review (if Needed)
When street pole brackets or big signage are involved, permitting depends on the size of the banner and its placement. We manage the necessary paperwork and city regulations, so you don’t have to worry about the complex process or potential penalties or fines for improper placement.
Installation with Professional Equipment
SignFreaks is a professional banner installation provider for Chicago organizations, with 25+ years of experience and all the right tools to get the job done correctly the first time. We have modern, high-quality lift gear, special industrial anchors, and specialized tools that allow our licensed, insured, and bonded workers to quickly and safely complete each job. Our team can reach up to 55 feet to install your banner; if your building is taller, ask ahead and we’ll make sure to have you covered. We properly tension banners, fasten them with precision grommets, and seal all mounting points, making them perfect for everything from short-term use to permanent branding.
Final Inspection & Photo Proof
Once installed, our team runs a final inspection and check to ensure everything is secure, wrinkle-free, aligned, and performing as intended. You’ll receive visual confirmation through photo proof, which is especially useful for national brands or clients not on-site. Need banner installation services and printing? We do both, making us your one-stop shop for all your Chicago banner needs.
