Poster Holder

For a standard reception hall, the A1 format (59.4 x 84.1 cm) is the reference: visible from 5-8 meters, sufficiently imposing to attract the eye without saturating the space. For a small reception (firm, local agency), the A2 format (42 x 59.4 cm) is perfect. For a large corporate lobby or shopping center, mount in A0 (84.1 x 118.9 cm) for maximum impact. Systematically favor the simplicity of the message: a well-chosen poster holder that is poorly used achieves nothing.

The standing poster holder is mobile (movable as needed), does not require any fixing to the wall (ideal for tenants and historic sites), but takes up approximately 1 m² of floor space and requires perfect stability (weighted base). The wall poster holder does not take up space on the floor (perfect for narrow corridors), remains permanently positioned, but requires permanent fixing (drilling in the wall). The choice essentially depends on your space constraints and your need for mobility.

Yes, but on condition that you use an waterproof IP54 or higher exterior model specifically designed for this use: seals, key locking against vandalism, UV and corrosion resistant finishes. Standard interior poster holders deteriorate quickly in exposed windows (humidity, condensation, poster theft). For very exposed windows (busy street, full sun, humid climate), IP65 reinforced versions are preferable.

Changing the poster of a clic-clac poster holder takes 30 to 60 seconds with a little practice. Open the 4 side profiles with a simple press, remove the old poster, slide the new one behind the protection plate, close the profiles. No tools needed. For zippered poster holders, allow 1 to 2 minutes: the poster is inserted from the side or the top. For traditional screw frames, 5 to 10 minutes with a screwdriver.

Standing Sign Holders are typically designed at a total height of 1.40 to 1.80 meters, placing the center of the poster between 1.20 and 1.40 meters from the ground, or the eye level of a standing adult. This height is optimal for general public environments. For spaces welcoming mainly children (school, park, family museum), a height reduced to 1.10 meters improves perception at eye level.

Yes, several of our poster holders can be powder coated in the Pantone colors of your graphic charter to order. Allow for an extended production time of 10 to 15 days and a minimum of around 10 units for an attractive price. For small quantities or urgent orders, customizable adhesive films can be applied to the standard profile for a similar visual result at a controlled cost.

A well-maintained professional poster holder offers a lifespan of 10 to 15 years in intensive indoor use. The aluminum structure does not alter and the click-clack mechanism withstands thousands of opening-closing cycles without loss of tension. The PVC protection plate can be replaced individually every 3-5 years in case of signs of use, without changing the complete structure. For the exterior, allow 5 to 10 years depending on exposure to bad weather.
