Door hanger printing<\/strong> is a natural extension of commercial envelope manufacturing. The same presses and die-cutters that produce thick cardstock envelopes are used to print and cut door hangers for hotels, property managers, and marketing campaigns.<\/p>\n\nA door hanger is a direct, unavoidable piece of print: it must be physically removed from a doorknob to enter a room. That makes it highly effective for “Do Not Disturb” signs, real estate farming, political canvassing, and local service marketing. <\/p>\n\n
This guide covers the technical specifications of door hanger printing \u2014 standard sizes, paper thickness, die-cut hole styles, and how bulk printing drives down the unit cost for large campaigns.<\/p>\n\n
Standard Door Hanger Sizes<\/h2>\n\n
Door hangers come in three standard sizes, built to maximize paper yield on commercial printing presses.<\/p>\n\n
\n| Size Category<\/th> | Dimensiones<\/th> | Best Used For<\/th><\/tr>\n |
|---|
Small \/ Standard<\/strong><\/td>| 3.5″ \u00d7 8.5″<\/td> | Hotel DND signs, simple service notes<\/td><\/tr>\n | Medium \/ Large<\/strong><\/td>| 4.25″ \u00d7 11″<\/td> | Real estate, campaign flyers, menus<\/td><\/tr>\n | Jumbo<\/strong><\/td>| 5.5″ \u00d7 17″<\/td> | Detailed catalogs, tear-off coupons<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/table>\n\n Choosing the right size depends on the amount of information you need to convey:<\/p>\n\n \n| If you need to print…<\/th> | Tama\u00f1o recomendado<\/th><\/tr>\n |

Standard Slit<\/strong><\/td>| Simple circle with a straight side slit<\/td> | Moderate (easy to hang quickly)<\/td><\/tr>\n | Arch \/ Hook Cut<\/strong><\/td>| Hook shape that wraps around the knob<\/td> | High (resists blowing off)<\/td><\/tr>\n | Starburst Cut<\/strong><\/td>| Star-shaped flaps that grip the knob tightly<\/td> | Maximum (best for outdoor use)<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/table>\n\n For hotels, the standard slit is usually sufficient. For outdoor marketing campaigns (like landscaping or real estate), the starburst cut ensures the hanger stays attached until the homeowner removes it.<\/p>\n\n Paper Materials and Thickness<\/h2>\n\nDoor hangers must be printed on rigid cardstock. Flimsy paper will curl, tear, or blow away.<\/p>\n\n \n| Peso del papel<\/th> | Estilo<\/th> | Common Application<\/th><\/tr>\n |

Setting up the press and the die-cutter carries a fixed cost; printing more units spreads that cost out.<\/p>\n\n | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
