If you plan on setting up street pole banners, you absolutely need to have street pole banner bracket hardware. In case you don’t what that is, it’s basically what fastens your banner to the light post. Most light post banners are made of flimsy material and they won’t just hang securely from a post.

The good thing about street pole banner bracket hardware is that they are readily available on the Internet as there are many companies that make them. Just like anything else, they come in different types. But how do you choose the right kind of hardware? In a few short words, you should choose base your choice on the wind speed of the area you’re going to hang the banner from.

Different brackets are actually made based on the maximum wind load that they can handle. As you might expect, the higher the load capacity, the more expensive the bracket is. However, it really isn’t so bad when you consider that you only get what you pay for.

Other factors you need to consider include the number of banners you’re going to hang from a pole. Are you going to hang one or two banners? Size also matters. What size is your banner? Generally speaking, the strength of your hardware is directly proportional to the size of your banner.

Then there’s the matter of whether or not the hardware is going to be used temporarily or be hung permanently.

When you consider all the factors we mentioned above, choosing a banner does become more complicated than it actually is. But it’s really not that complicated when you consider the type of banner you’re going to hang and if you’re going to hang it from a post on a temporary or permanent basis.
