How Long Will Banner Last Outdoors

[RegisG 0]

I have a job to fit a sign between 2 metal poles 20" apart and about 30' high.  Customer/friend wants a 10-12 foot tall sign between the poles and try to keep cost down(couple hundred).  Would a banner last for a few years?  Or are they only good for less than a year?  It's hot here in northern Florida.  How long will a banner last outdoors?   

Thanks,

Regis

there is no way to tell. I've seen them last for a year, and also need replacing after a few months. Rain,wind,sunshine...type of material...too many factors to give an accurate estimate.

Thank you John.

It sounds like one year might be upper limit to expect.  Then that's out...off to plan B

Six months to a year strung between two poles. Cutting in air holes and using bungy cords will extend the life.

Secured on a building where they are not blowing around 1-3 years.

I don't think John likes to stay outdoors - as long as he can come in now and then he will last a long time -- 

-- sorry, couldn't help myself.

I'm surprised no one beat me to that one.
