Q: Overpass Banners City of Calgary Requirements?

A: Overpass Banners by the City of Calgary are large banners displayed on overpasses throughout the city. They serve as a platform for public announcements, event promotions, and important messages. Here are the detailed specifications for City of Calgary Overpass Banners:

1. Size: The City of Calgary requests that Overpass Banners have a size of 360×36″ (30×3′), adhering to these specific dimensions to ensure compatibility with the overpass structures.

2. Material: The banners are made of durable and weather-resistant material, typically heavy-duty vinyl, to withstand outdoor conditions and ensure longevity.

3. Reinforcement and Grommets: To enhance durability and facilitate proper installation, the City of Calgary requires that the banners have seamed edges and grommets placed every 1 foot. This reinforcement helps prevent tearing and ensures secure fastening.

4. Wind Slits: In order to reduce wind resistance and minimize the risk of damage, the City of Calgary mandates the inclusion of wind slits in Overpass Banners. These strategically placed slits allow wind to pass through, preventing excessive stress on the banner.

Q: What to know about Grommets?

A: Everything you need to know:

• Proven Durability: Our #2 grommets are designed for long-lasting performance. They measure ¾" on the outside with a ½" diameter hole.
• Smooth Edges: The interior edges of our metal grommets are smooth to minimize chafing and reduce the risk of cutting the hanging material.
• Precise Placement: Each grommet is installed approximately 1 inch from the edge, ensuring a uniform and professional finish.
• Optimal Grip: The 1" offset spacing provides the ideal amount of material for the grommets to grip, creating a stronger bond and reducing the chance of tearing under stress.
• Reinforced Strength: For outdoor use, we strongly recommend choosing the "Hemmed Edges" option. Hemmed edges double the material thickness at each grommet point, ensuring maximum strength and durability.
• Custom Spacing Options:
  • For most banners, grommets are recommended every 2 feet around all four edges.
  • For smaller banners, corner grommets may suffice.
  • Specialized installations, such as overpass banners, may require grommets spaced every 1 foot.

At Evoked, we are committed to providing reliable, high-quality grommets to meet all your banner needs.
