Custom 3' x 5' Horizontal Flag

WHAT IS A CUSTOM 3'x5' FLAG?

A Custom 3'x5' flag is a handmade product (made in the USA). This includes large-scale digital printing and individual sewing and finishing. Custom flags can be printed with just about anything you want put on them.  It is very much like printing from your computer to a printer, except that we are printing on fabric. We finish these flags by heming the edges, adding two brass grommets and  header tape on the header side and a double-hem on the fly side with four rows of stitches.

SINGLE SIDED

This style of custom flags is printed on ONE side, yet are readable from both sides. The image bleeds through to the back of the flag and is the reverse image of the front.  This is typically not a problem for people reading the flag since most words can be easily read from their reverse.

BLEED THROUGH

We get about 95% bleed-through with our digital printer, depending on color. The image is very readable on the backside.

SIZE

The size of these custom single sided horizontal flags is 3 feet tall, 5 feet wide.

POLES

This product includes the option of including our 2 Section Aluminum Spinning Stabilizer Pole. These poles are 6 feet long with a 1-inch diameter and gold eagle top and an aluminum finish. These poles were recently upgraded from our previous model for strength and durability. They now include a mid-section ball joint so that the pole spins freely, and the flag never tangles. These Poles are for Wall mounting Only -- NOT for Flag Bases.

The included adjustable Aluminum Bracket can fit in up to 13 different angles across 180 degrees of motion. This bracket is heavy duty and is made to fit our 6ft Spinning Stabilizer Pole or any pole with a 1-inch diameter. Mounting screws are also included. 

Step 1: Determine whether or not you need our optional 6' spinning pole kit with mounting bracket. Choose either the "Flag Only" button, or the "Flag with 6' Spinning Flag Pole" button.

Step 2: Select the number of custom printed 3'x5' horizontal flags you need using the quantity box. We do offer discounts if you need multiple flags of the same design. The discounts start at a quantity of 2 flags. The discount will automatically be applied as you increase the quantity.

Step 3: Determine whether you are designing the flag yourself or if we are designing it for you. If you are designing the flag yourself or already have a design, use the light blue "CHOOSE FILE" button at the top of this page to attach your file. If we are designing the feather flag for you, you can use this same button to attach any logos or graphics you need on the flag. If we are designing the flag for you, use the "Design Instructions" box to describe what you'd like on the flag. Please be as descriptive as possible. Make sure you click on the "SAVE CUSTOMIZATION" button to attach the design instructions to your order. If you forget, or don't have the images or instructions at this time, you can go through checkout and then email us at [email protected]. You can also send questions, comments, images, and design instruction to our designers at [email protected]. We will take your design, or design instructions and email you a proof for your approval to print. Please monitor the email address attached to your account for a proof or correspondence. We WILL NOT print the sign until we have your approval.

Step 4: Click on the ADD TO CART button. Please note, you won't be able to click ADD TO CART until you've entered design instructions and clicked the SAVE CUSTOMIZATION button.

We can help with designing your custom flag. We offer SIMPLE design help (a $75 value) which means we will work with you to come up with a design. Since this is a FREE service we don't offer more than one design change after the first design is presented (unless it is a minor, simple change). After that we have to charge a $15 design change fee. So please be as specific as you can when giving us your design instructions. 

We need high resolution images, so send the best image you have. If you have a choice send a vector file (the file will generally end in pdf, ai, or psd).

Designing it yourself: If you are designing the flag yourself you can upload it or send it to us via email. Please use our downloadable templates in the templates tab to design your custom flag. The template is designed for adobe photoshop. These templates are set up at 25% of the actually flag size to reduce file size. Our raster software will will enlarge your design to 100%. While the software is good at enlarging things, we need high resolution graphics or vectors in order for your flag to print crisp and sharp. We will let you know if the file you uploaded is not going to print very well.

PRODUCTION TIME
This Custom Product has an average turnaround production time of 4 days AFTER the approved design is submitted to the printer, plus transit shipping time. 

PROOF/PRINT DISCLAIMER
Screen Proofs depict Design Layout, Text Accuracy & Image Placement, but will only ESTIMATE Color Matching or Color Density. We DO NOT guarantee that the Custom Printed Sign will match the color displayed on your Computer Monitor or Printer exactly.  Every substrate (print media) has a different density than paper so printed material will look differently. We can match colors fairly well, however.

PROOF APPROVALS
Vista Flags has no upload capability on our web site (after checkout), so we communicate via email. Since we need everything in writing, all correspondence concerning custom products is done via email. Once we receive your email indicating a design as APPROVED, Vista Flags is released from ALL liabilities for any errors including, but not limited to: Grammar, Spelling, Color Matching, Size, Image Placement, Resolution, and Color Density. Custom products are NOT returnable. However, we will make every attempt to satisfy our customers.

COLOR MATCHING
While we try to match the colors as accurately as possible, a variety of things will alter the colors, some of which are beyond our control (currently) including humidity.  Inks respond differently to temperature and can change from batch to batch.  If you are designing your own sign and it contains yellow, make it at pure as possible (100% Yellow - 0% everything else), slight percentages of other colors may turn the yellow green. Custom Sign are not returnable.

Designing it yourself: If you are designing the flag yourself you can upload it our send it to us via email. Design in RGB mode for the best colors and send it or upload it as a PDF, TIFF, JPG, or AI file. Click the link below to download our 3'x5' horizontal flag template.
