Pop Up Display Systems Explained

How do I specify a Pop Up Display Stand System?

Pop Up Display Stand Systems are commonly specified by the number of square sections used in the construction of the frame and whether the shape of the frame is curved or straight.

For example:

	This is a 3 x 3 curved unit - 3 square sections high and 3 wide
	This is a 1 x 2 curved unit - 1 square section high and 2 wide

See the pop up display system measurements page for further examples.

Which is most popular, curved or straight, units?

80-90% of frames sold are curved units.  This is mainly because people generally consider that they look better, and the natural curve of the frame makes them more stable.

While you can use stabilising feet with single straight units, they get used mostly as part of a larger exhibition stand - probably combined with curved units for that extra bit of style!

What sizes are available?

Being a modular display system, a pop up frame can be just a single square (which you may use as a table top display) or any combination of squares.

Floor standing units are usually 3 squares high and the most common widths are either 3 or 4 squares wide.  Sometimes, people will have their unit 4, 5, or even 6 squares high to really add impact - there are a number of graphic and stability elements to consider with this therefore please give us a call if this idea appeals to you.

Table top standing units are usually 1 or 2 squares high and 2 squares wide.

TIP
Each square section of pop up display frames are either permanently riveted together or screwed together.

Please note that if you damage part of your frame or wish to increase or reduce the overall size of your frame to fit with your display needs, the permanently assembled frame will either need to be replaced or return to the factory for repair or adjustment - leaving you without your frame for a period of days or weeks and most probably adding to your costs. 

A frame that is screwed together allows you easily swap out the damaged part, increase or reduce the frame size and even allows you mix straight and curved sections within the one frame for a more creative display.

Can I link a number of Pop Up Display units together to create a larger exhibition stand?

Yes, you can build some pretty large exhibtion stands using pop up displays.

You can, for example, either physically join a number of frames together (essentially if you are increasing the unit height - and only possible with screw together frames such as the our's!-) or you can hook the end panel of one unit to another frame to create an extended wall.  The connecting panel is often referred to as a 'ghost panel' as it does not have a section of frame behind it and it also acts as a hinge, allowing you to link the second frame off at almost any angle.

There are also a wide range of accessories, ranging from internal and external shelving to headers and towers, which you can use in creating larger exhibition stand solutions.

What are the main limitations of a Pop Up Display System?

Pop Up Display Systems were originally invented to carry graphics and, while they are strong units that now have a whole range of accessories, they are not a weight bearing system.

This does not of course mean that heavy objects cannot be accomodated - contact us to discuss your needs and we will be happy to propose a solution that will meet your objectives.
