Overview
Large banner printing at FatPrint, in short: big print has one enemy, and it is wind. A solid banner the size of a garage door acts like a sail. Mesh does not. Its open 260gsm weave lets air through, so a huge graphic can stay on a scaffold or a stadium fence for the long haul.
Three sizes, or your own
The set sizes are 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm), 13 ft 1 in × 6 ft 7 in (4000 × 2000 mm) and 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm). If the wall or fence is a different shape, enter any width from 0.3 m to 5 m and any height from 0.3 m to 3 m.
Large banner printing on site
A developer wraps the front of a scaffold with the name of the new flats. A cricket club dresses the boundary fence facing the main road. A school covers a tired wall during building work with a bright message for parents at pick-up. Each of these wants one big hit of colour that can be read from across the street.
Fixing it properly
Plan a fixing roughly every 50 cm along each edge. Work from the top corners outward, then the bottom, pulling it tight as you go. Keep text large; people read these from a distance, often from a moving car.

Questions
Quick answers about large banner printing.
We need to cover a big stretch of fencing at the club ground. How large can a single mesh banner go?
5 metres across by 3 metres tall is the limit you can type into this page. If your space is bigger than that, send us the measurements through the Contact page and we will work out how to split the design into panels that hang side by side.
Which material is used for the large mesh banners?
Full colour print on 260gsm mesh banner. Prices start at £161.81. If you are after a different material, message us from the Contact page.
How big do these come?
Choose 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm), 13 ft 1 in × 6 ft 7 in (4000 × 2000 mm) or 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm). A custom width and height is possible too. Measure your space first so your large mesh banner fits. Prices start at £161.81 and change with the size you pick.
Will the price go up when I reach the checkout?
No. The figure on the page is the one you pay at checkout. The £161.81 starting price for your large mesh banner order is the full price of the goods. Spend £100 on goods (design fees are not counted) and UK mainland delivery is free; otherwise it is £7.95 once.
How long until my large mesh banner order ships?
Express gets it out in 4 working days, Standard ships after 6 working days and Saver, the lowest price, after 8 working days. The courier then needs 1 to 3 working days, and the tracking link comes by email. Spend £100 on goods (design fees are not counted) and UK mainland delivery is free; otherwise it is £7.95 once. Sizes over 3 m on a side, such as 4m x 2m and 5m x 3m, go by specialist courier for £15 added once to the order.
How do I find out what my mesh banner will cost?
Choose the options on this page and the total updates straight away. It opens on the cheapest combination, £161.81. What the page shows is what you pay for the goods at checkout.
Asked by buyers
How cheaply can I get hold of Large Mesh Banners?
Picked the way the page first loads, with 3000 × 2000 mm and 260gsm mesh banner, Large Mesh Banners come to £161.81. Any other mix of options, a faster turnaround included, gets its own price the moment you choose it, and that figure is what you pay at checkout. Only delivery is left to add. At £161.81 the opening price is already over £100, so mainland delivery costs nothing.
Is delivery extra on top of the price of Large Mesh Banners?
Send it to a UK mainland address for a flat £7.95, or for free when the goods in the basket add up to £100 or more after discounts; artwork and design charges do not count towards that. The opening price of £161.81 already clears that line. The very largest sizes go as oversize parcels, adding £15 to the order once. We price delivery first for Northern Ireland and for the Isle of Wight, the Channel Islands, Scilly, the Scottish islands and the Isle of Man; Highland addresses on the mainland just pay £10 extra, one time per order.
Which turnaround speeds can I choose for Large Mesh Banners?
Allow 8 working days on Saver, 6 on Standard or 4 on Express before Large Mesh Banners are handed to the courier, based on the options the page opens with. Weekends and bank holidays are not counted, and nothing starts until the order is paid and the artwork is confirmed. Pick another size or material and the days beside each speed update, sometimes by a day. After it leaves us, the courier normally delivers in one to three working days and you get the tracking link by email.
Do the biggest sizes of Large Mesh Banners cost more to deliver?
A flat £15 is added once per order when it contains an item longer than 3 m on a side (banners) or bigger than A0 (boards), because those need a specialist courier. Here that covers 4m x 2m and 5m x 3m. Three of them still pay it once. Smaller sizes travel normally. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted). Choose Saver and these mesh banners leave us after 8 working days; Express brings that down to 4.
I am making my own design. How do I lay out the file for these mesh banners?
Build the page at the exact size you are ordering, or at a scale such as 1:10 if the file would be huge, and carry the background colour or picture all the way out to the edges. Words and logos belong 50 mm or more inside every edge. The hem is folded back there and the eyelet holes go through close to the border. Somewhere between 100 and 150 dpi at full size is plenty, since a banner is read from a few steps back. Designing online instead? The editor marks where the eyelets and the safe zone are. Material choices for Large Mesh Banners: 260gsm mesh banner.
Which artwork services are offered with Large Mesh Banners?
Several routes, all chosen under Artwork on this page. Send your own finished file (no charge), we set your words and logo on a tidy layout, called typesetting (£15), we design it from your brief (£35), we redraw a blurry or low quality logo as sharp vector art (£30) or we create a brand new logo (£50). Typesetting and design from a brief each come with one first draft and two rounds of changes. The fee is the same whatever quantity you order and shows separately in the basket. There is also a free online designer if you want to build it yourself. On its opening option, Large Mesh Banners leaves us after 8 working days on Saver.
Is the online designer free, and how do I use it?
Pick a starting layout, swap in your own words, logo and pictures, and move things around until it looks right. While you work, the tool flags sample text you forgot to change, small text, items outside the safe area and blurry images, before you can finish. It is free to use and the on-screen watermark does not print. What you see is what we print. Make the artwork for these mesh banners the same size as the one you order, such as 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm).
Why would I pick mesh for these mesh banners?
Wind is the main reason. The 260gsm woven PVC is dotted with little gaps, so air flows through instead of pushing against the whole banner, which is easier on ties, eyelets and the fencing. It is the usual pick for Heras panels, scaffolding and other open ground. From a short distance the print reads as one solid image. Very small text can look patchy close up, so keep the lettering bold with good contrast. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
Which is the smallest and which the biggest mesh banner I can order here?
The table has 3 sizes. Any other width and height inside the limits on the page can be typed in too. Each figure is for the cheapest set of options at that size. Unsure? Measure where it will go and check the view from the spot people will stand. The live price for the options you choose shows on this page before you add to basket.
We are not sure how big to go. Which mesh banner size is right for us?
Two numbers decide it: the space you are filling, and the distance people will read it from. At 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm), the smallest option here sits neatly on a stall, a doorway or one section of railing. At 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), the biggest can stretch along a playing field fence or across the front of a building and still be read from far off. Nothing quite right? Measurements of your own can be typed in on this page.
How do I hang these mesh banners so the result looks tidy?
Start with the four corners so the mesh banner hangs straight, then fill in along the top and bottom, using every eyelet. Tighten each tie until the slack is gone and stop there, so the mesh banner is not stretched. Cable ties, bungee cords or rope all do the job. On an exposed railing, bungees stretch slightly when a gust hits, which takes the shock off solid PVC. Have a look after the first breezy day and swap any tie that has broken. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
Could you price a 13 ft 1 in × 6 ft 7 in (4000 × 2000 mm) mesh banner for me?
That clears the £100 mark on its own, so UK mainland delivery costs nothing. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all. The live price for the options you choose shows on this page before you add to basket.
And the largest mesh banner, 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm): how much is that one?
That clears the £100 mark on its own, so UK mainland delivery costs nothing. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Before delivery, these mesh banners cost from £161.81. The live price for the options you choose shows on this page before you add to basket.
I need several mesh banners, some in different sizes. How do I buy them?
Each price on the page is for a single mesh banner in the size and material chosen. Put the number you want in the box beside Add to basket and the total multiplies. For a different size or material, add it as a separate line; the basket keeps them apart. An artwork fee is charged once per line, whatever the quantity, and choosing to reuse the artwork from another item in your basket costs nothing more. Very large runs can go through Get a quote. Before delivery, these mesh banners cost from £161.81.
I am not a business. Can I buy just one of these mesh banners?
Of course. Anyone can order, with no trade account and no minimum beyond one. Prices for Large Mesh Banners begin at £161.81, checkout works without an account and you pay by card. Parents, clubs, churches and small shops order single items all the time. At £161.81 the opening price is already over £100, so mainland delivery costs nothing.
Could the total go up after I reach the checkout?
No surprises: what the page shows for these mesh banners is the goods figure you pay at checkout. Delivery is the one extra, £7.95 to a UK mainland address, and it drops away when the goods reach £100 after discounts. Paid artwork help shows up as its own basket line, so you can check each amount before paying. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each mesh banner is made to order for you. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all.
How can a small charity keep the cost of these mesh banners down?
Three things help most: a modest size, 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at £161.81; the Saver option, which costs least and needs 8 working days; and wording without a date, so it can be used again. Making the design yourself on screen is free. Delivery is free once the goods reach £100, so a few groups sharing one order can save the £7.95.
Our event is close. Can Large Mesh Banners be rushed?
Yes. Choose Express and Large Mesh Banners can be on the way in 4 working days on the opening option, for £215.74, where Saver is £161.81 and takes 8 days. Then give the courier one to three working days, and send the artwork with the order, because the clock does not run until the file is sorted. If the date is really tight, message us on the Contact page before paying and we will tell you honestly.
Do you send to Northern Ireland or the islands?
Yes, anywhere in the UK, though the price differs by area. A Highlands postcode on the mainland pays the usual rate plus a single £10 for the order, and that £10 still applies when the rest of the delivery is free. Northern Ireland gets a price worked out first, as do the Isle of Wight, the Channel Islands, Scilly, the Scottish islands and the Isle of Man: send your postcode through our Get a quote page or the Contact page. We cannot send anything outside the UK. The biggest sizes of these mesh banners go by specialist courier, which adds £15 once to the order. Choose Saver and these mesh banners leave us after 8 working days; Express brings that down to 4.
Can I send a Word or Canva file for Large Mesh Banners?
Word, PowerPoint and Canva are a fair place to start, but export a high quality PDF from them before uploading. Our first choice is always a PDF at the ordered size with fonts embedded or outlined, followed by AI, EPS or SVG, then high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF. You can add three files, each up to 25 MB, on this page, or upload them after ordering from the email we send. Make the artwork for these mesh banners the same size as the one you order, such as 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm).
Will anyone look at my file before it is printed?
Yes, a real person on our team opens every uploaded file and checks the size, the bleed and the resolution. If something is off, you hear from us before anything is made. Designs made in the online designer are printed exactly as they looked on screen. We print what you send, though, so read the spelling, numbers and dates yourself as well. Making starts when the order and the file are both confirmed. If you have no file, you can build the design for these mesh banners in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering. Material choices for Large Mesh Banners: 260gsm mesh banner.
How many pixels does a photo need to print well on these mesh banners?
Big items seen from a distance only need 100 to 150 dpi at full size. So a 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm) layout wants about 19,685 by 11,811 pixels. Keep lettering and logos as vectors if you can. An image copied off a web page or a social post rarely has enough pixels; if yours looks likely to print soft, our file check flags it.
I am not a designer. What if the file I send turns out to be unusable?
That is why a person looks at every upload before anything is printed. Typical snags are a document at the wrong size, missing bleed, blurry photos and words sitting too near the trim. If we spot one, we explain what to change and you send a fresh file. Or hand it over to us: for £15 our typesetting places your wording and logo on a neat layout, with one first draft and two rounds of changes. If you have no file, you can build the design for these mesh banners in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering.
Someone else is putting our file together. How does it reach you?
Easiest route: they send the finished file to whoever placed the order, and it gets uploaded after ordering. Up to 3 files of 25 MB each are fine. They can also reach us through the Contact page, as long as they quote your order number so it lands on the right job. Production waits for the checked file, so a late file means a later dispatch date. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all.
How tall do the letters need to be so people can read these mesh banners from a distance?
Take 13 ft 1 in × 6 ft 7 in (4000 × 2000 mm) as an example. Leave 50 mm clear on every side and the text area is about 1900 mm high. Capitals 570 mm tall can be picked out at around 68 m, because sign makers reckon every 25 mm of letter height carries roughly 3 m. A few short, heavy words in a colour that stands out from the background travel further than a long line squeezed in.
Once I finish designing these mesh banners online, is the file mine to keep?
Two ways. Buy the file on its own: finish your design and pay £9.99 for the print-ready PDF, though you give up the right to cancel as soon as you start downloading it. Or order printing, and a full resolution PDF of the design travels with the order, waiting for you in your confirmation email and under My Account once you have paid. Make the artwork for these mesh banners the same size as the one you order, such as 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm).
If I hang mesh on a fence, can people on the other side read it too?
Not properly. Mesh is printed on one face only. Through the open weave you can make out a faint, back-to-front version from behind, but it does not work as a readable second side. Where a fence has people on both sides, fix a pair of banners with their backs together, or hang solid PVC on each face of the fence. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
Can these mesh banners be made to my own measurements?
Yes. Any width between 300 and 5000 mm and any height between 300 and 3000 mm can be entered, and the total changes as you type. For something larger, or a shaped banner, ask us for a price. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all.
Can a club banner go up every weekend and come down again?
It can. Club secretaries often leave the season and dates off so one mesh banner covers every home fixture. Tie every eyelet on the rail, take it down after the final whistle, let it dry if it has rained and roll it with the print facing out. Being mesh, it lets gusts through, so the ties take less strain. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
Could we put these mesh banners up on a building site or around works?
Mesh suits site work well: the wind passes through, so it can hang on Heras panels or scaffold without acting like a sail. Whoever puts them up should tie off every fixing point firmly and check again once the wind has been blowing. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
How should I keep these mesh banners between uses?
Make sure it is bone dry and clean, then roll it up loosely with the print on the outside, round a cardboard tube if one is handy. Try not to fold it, because sharp folds leave creases and the ink can crack along them. Snip off old cable ties before rolling so they do not press marks into the print, and store the roll in a dry cupboard well clear of radiators. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
Is it legal to hang these mesh banners on a fence or building I do not own?
Only with the owner's say-so, so ask the landowner or building owner before anything goes up. In England, outdoor banners are adverts in the eyes of the 2007 Control of Advertisements Regulations. Plenty of temporary banners need no application, but the size, the location and how long it is left up all count. Your local council can tell you if you are in doubt. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland each have similar rules of their own. We print these mesh banners on 260gsm mesh banner.
I am ordering these mesh banners for a school or charity. Do I need to open an account?
No account is needed. Guest checkout lets a parent, volunteer or club secretary order once and pay by debit or credit card through Stripe. The price you see is the price you pay at checkout, and the confirmation email you receive lists the items and the amount paid for your records. If the committee needs a price agreed before anyone pays, the Get a quote page is the better starting point. Before delivery, these mesh banners cost from £161.81.
Our club needs a big batch of mesh banners, or an odd size. Can you price it?
Yes. Fill in our Get a quote page, giving the size, how many, the material, when you need them and the delivery postcode, and attach your artwork if it is ready. A price comes back to you by email. Get a quote is also how delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands gets priced. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all.
I am not sure which options to pick for these mesh banners. Can someone advise me?
Yes. Type your question into the box on this page and a real person replies. Mention where the mesh banner will be used, how long you need it to last and the date you need it by. Answered questions may be shown on the page for other buyers, so leave personal details out of it. Private questions can go through the Contact page, and anything the options here cannot price can go through the Get a quote page. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each mesh banner is made to order for you.
Can I pay for Large Mesh Banners by card as a guest?
Yes. Guest checkout is fine, and any debit or credit card works. Stripe processes the payment for us, which keeps your card number off our system entirely. We begin making these mesh banners once the payment has cleared and the artwork is confirmed. Large or out of the ordinary jobs can be quoted first from the Get a quote page. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all.
I have spotted a typo after paying. Can it be fixed?
Tell us quickly through the Contact page, quoting your order number. Before production starts we can take a corrected file, or cancel and refund the whole order. After that it cannot be changed. A print that matches your finished design or the file you sent is not a fault, so it pays to read every word and number before you order. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each mesh banner is made to order for you.
Can I send these mesh banners back if I no longer need them?
If they arrive faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, yes: under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 we reprint or refund. A change of mind is different. Each order is made to your specification, and reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 takes those goods out of the 14-day right to cancel. Before production starts, though, you can cancel for all your money back. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each mesh banner is made to order for you.
Should I send my file as RGB or CMYK?
CMYK if you can. An RGB file gets converted to CMYK for printing, and vivid greens, blues and oranges may lose a little brightness on the way. Have a Pantone number for your brand colour? Tell us and we match it as near as the material lets us. Expect a small shift between screen and print either way: a screen shines light at you, while printed items reflect it. Sizes for these mesh banners go from 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 16 ft 5 in × 9 ft 10 in (5000 × 3000 mm), 3 in all.
Which mistakes does the online designer warn me about?
Five things: placeholder wording still sitting in the layout, lettering smaller than will print clearly, anything creeping past the safe area or right up to the trim, logos or photos with too few pixels for the size, and shapes lying on top of words. A serious issue has to be sorted before you finish, while a plain warning can be accepted if you are happy with it. Your spelling is not read, so go over names, numbers and dates yourself. Make the artwork for these mesh banners the same size as the one you order, such as 9 ft 10 in × 6 ft 7 in (3000 × 2000 mm).
