Thank you. This was perfect information. I am above average handy, so I shouldn’t have any problems with this. I just wasn’t sure how it would attach on the bottom, and your video explained it in great detail.
No problem, i'm glad the video was useful. You will need to use a strong double sided tape to attach the print. After sticking the print to the stand you can over-tape the join between the graphic and the stand with parcel tape. This will make the join more secure!
How do you effectively weigh down and secure the base outdoors from toppling over from strong winds? (Preferably without traveling with a bunch of dead weight (s)😂)
Hi, This type of banner stand is designed only for internal use. Sure, you could put some weight over the support feet of the stand to anchor it but if a strong wind hits it, the feet or the vertical support pole of the banner stand would probably get bent! I've seen this type of banner outdoors in all sorts of creative ways (anchoring the feet, tying the support pole to a fence/wall etc) but ultimately the stand isn't designed for external use so it will get trashed. Take a look at our website www.printdesigns.com as you will find some outdoor-durable roller banners that are beefier than this type of stand and better suited for external use! Hope this helps www.printdesigns.com
If you pulled the pin prior to attaching the print (with the top rail in place) then the spring inside will lose tension. It can be fixed but it is fiddly. Attach the print with the top rail on, then remove the screws that hold the end plate on the stand. Do this on the side of the banner that has the flat part of the spindle protruding from it, not the other side that has a round spindle protruding from it. With the screws undone, turn the end plate round and round whilst keeping the flat part of the spindle in the slot on the side of the banner casing. This is tricky! After about 20-25 turns the print should be wound inside. Now put the screws back in.
Whoops! sorry to hear about this. The banner can be fixed but it's a fiddly process. The first thing you need to do it remove the screws from the end plate of the stand that has the flat spindle protruding from it. With the screws removed you can rotate the end plate of the stand clockwise while it is held flush to the casing of the stand. The flat head of the spindle should be still poking through the slot when you rotate the end plate. Be careful here because as you rotate the end plate with the spindle poking through the slot, the tension on the spring increases inside the stand. It is easy to accidentally pull the end plate away whereby the spindle will pop out of the slot and 'lose' all of the tension. Also be very careful that the end plate does not fly out of your hands whilst turning it or you could hurt yourself! We wear gloves and safety goggles when doing this. You need to give this end plate about 20-25 turns after which the print should be wound back into the stand. Once the print is wound in, put the screws back onto the end plate to secure it. Again, be careful that you don't pull the end plate away from the stand and allow the spindle to pop out of it's slot while doing this or you will need to start over! I hope this helps and good luck.
Hi, you should use a good quality permanent adhesive tape. We use 50mm tesa 4965. It works well for us based on the printing materials we apply to roller banner stands at www.printdesigns.com but you should test adhesion to the particular print material you are using to make sure it holds OK!
I have a banner like this that was installed backwards - the print side faces the pole. Can I unscrew the side panels and reverse the roll entirely? Or do I need to return to the banner company?
Hi Tim, the print would need to be removed and refitted in this case. You should contact the company who you ordered it from and ask them to collect the banner and replace it!
When we send out replacement graphics for roller banner stands, we normally supply a locking pin. It's worth noting that if you don't have a specific locking pin, you can use something similar instead. A small nail or hex key should do the job!
This is simply explained and well understood. Thank you. This is of great assistance.
That was simple and great information I needed!! Thank you! 👍

what happens if the pin was pulled out prematurely and all the spring got inside of the bottom part is there a way to repair this issue? thank you

Thanks for the info! This helped me out at work
No worries Matt, glad the video was useful! Best wishes www.pintdesigns.com
Accidentally pulled the pin and the spring on the roller unwound. Any tips on rewinding the roller to get back to the original tension?

شكرا جزيلا
thank you for your video
No worries, I'm glad it was useful to you. All the best www.printdesigns.com
do you know what can I use if the locking pin is missing?
You could use a small nail, a matchstick or cocktail stick or a small allen/hex key
What kind of tape should I use?

Where do I get the pin?
I think it comes with the stand

Woow great
Glad you found the video useful :-)
what if you dont have any tools?
What tools do you need?
Great video but could you put a towel down next time? 😱
You’re a lil intense
