Outdoor Poster Display Guide
Introduction: Our comprehensive selection of poster frames is tailored for both outdoor and indoor environments. This guide is crafted to assist you in discerning the optimal choices for your display requirements.
- Snap Frames:
Composition: Crafted with aluminum, stainless steel, and durable plastic, these frames remain resilient against rain. Longevity: Snap frames are robust against rain; however, their contents are not inherently waterproof. Laminating posters or inserts is advised for enhanced protection. Application: Perfect for all settings, they are equally functional for interior and exterior displays.
- Locking Snap Frames:
Security Feature: Equipped with a specialized Allen key, these frames deter and reduce the risk of poster theft.
- Weather Resistant Snap Frames:
Design Innovations: Reinforced with extra springs to secure the frame in windy conditions. An integrated rubber membrane helps to prevent water ingress. Durability: These frames offer improved resistance to weather over standard options, though complete water resistance is not assured. Usage: Best for outdoor areas subject to frequent wind and precipitation.
- Poster Cases:
Sturdiness: Poster cases boast greater durability than other frames, featuring white-coated galvanized steel backs, less susceptible to UV or heat damage, along with a robust acrylic window, hinged doors, and locking mechanism.
Moisture Defense: These cases can protect contents against light rain, but are not fully waterproof. Preferred Setting: Typically installed in covered outdoor locations for increased defense against the elements.
Key Outdoor Display Considerations:
Water Resistance: Absolute waterproofing is not achievable; we recommend lamination for additional poster protection. Placement: Optimal locations are under cover—such as gas station canopies or entryways—to reduce exposure to harsh weather. UV and Environmental Factors: To diminish the adverse effects of UV rays and pollution, it is prudent to choose shaded or semi-protected areas, a common practice for external signage to extend the lifespan of display materials.
Conclusion: The selection of the appropriate frame or case is contingent upon individual display needs and environmental factors. From our durable standard frames to our enhanced weatherproof options and robust poster cases, strategic placement is key to maximizing durability and ensuring effective poster protection.
