What size banner should you use for your shopfront? 👀
Bigger isn’t always better.
The right shopfront banner should fit the available space, stay easy to read from the pavement or road, and look like it belongs on the building — not like it has been squeezed in.
Useful starting sizes:
✅ 1.5m × 0.75m – compact windows & railings
✅ 2m × 1m – ideal for many small shops, cafés & salons
✅ 3m × 1m – wider frontages & high-visibility promotions
✅ 4m × 1m / 4m × 1.5m – larger walls & roadside locations
✅ 0.8m × 2m – narrow spaces beside entrances
A few things matter just as much as size:
📏 Measure the fixing area properly
👁️ Design for the viewing distance
🔠 Keep the main message large and simple
🌬️ Consider mesh for exposed or windy locations
🎨 Use high-quality, print-ready artwork
🔩 Leave enough space for eyelets and secure fixings
The best banner is the one people can understand before they’ve walked or driven past it.
