One of the most common sizes for construction banners is 6 ft tall, and then however long you’ll need to extend over your fence. Usually, you want to cover the fence surrounding the construction site with your branding.

What Are Construction Banners?
Construction banners, made from mesh and vinyl, are large, eye-catching, branded displays perfect for:
- Promoting your commercial project or construction company to passersby
- Showing safety guidelines and way finding indications to workers and the public
- Displaying business details (for example, if the establishment is open during construction)
- Creating privacy screens to hide construction work and enhance security
U.S. Construction Banner Size Chart
I recommend these convention banner sizes for different construction banner purposes:
| Construction Banner Type | Standard Measurements (Feet) | Best Use Cases |
| Small Site Banners | 2’ x 4’ 3’ x 6’ 4’ x 6’ | Advertising, safety, and directional signs |
| Medium Site Banners | 5’ x 10’ 4’ x 8’ | Promotional messages, perimeter fencing |
| Large Site Banners | 8’ x 20’ 10’ x 15’ 10’ x 20’ | Eye-catching advertisements, building wraps, main entrances |
| Extra-Large Banners | 15’ x 20’ 20’ x 25’ 12’ x 36’ 20’ x 40’ | Large-scale promotions, building wraps |
| Fence Banners/Fence Wraps | 4’ in height, length varies | Commercial advertisements, promotional messages |
Here’s a custom mesh fence wrap we printed for a performing arts center. It provides privacy while promoting the performing arts center project.
Pro Tip: When choosing a banner size, consider the site’s dimensions, viewing distance, and complexity of information/graphics to display. Put small banners strategically around the site perimeter for branding or safety protocols. Large-format banners make excellent building wraps or entrance focal points.
Best Materials for Construction Banners
At NorthCoast Banners, we use the finest materials and UV-resistant inks to print sturdy construction banners with long-lasting colors that withstand outdoor elements.
Many of our customers choose these construction banner materials:
- 70/30 Mesh: 70% material 30% holes – Gives privacy if used on fencing, but still promotes your brand and allows wind to pass through.
- 30/70 Mesh: 30% Material, 70% holes. Allows a higher proportion of wind to pass through, but do not provide the same screening effect as the 70/30 banners. They still allow you to have your branding around the side
