Drape Flags and Interceptor Flags for Car Dealerships

Drape flags hang vertically to display a manufacturer brand, a sales message, or a seasonal design across your lot. Dealermarket stocks two styles: large Interceptor flags that mount to poles and buildings on a bracket, and smaller free-flying drape flags that fly from a standard flagpole.

Interceptor Flags

Interceptor flags are the large format, 3ft x 8ft with a sleeve at the top and bottom that slides onto an Interceptor bracket. Franchise dealers can display manufacturer branding with the single sided authorized dealer flag or the double faced version readable from both directions. Stock messages are covered by the single faced message flag in 19 messages and the double faced message flag in 20. For something bolder, see the checkered interceptor flag in four colorways, and for seasonal rotation the holiday interceptor flag in 14 styles.

Interceptor Brackets and Straps

Interceptor flags are sold without hardware, so each flag needs a matching bracket. Kits are sized to the flag and to the number of printed faces: single sided for 3 x 8 flags, double sided for 3 x 8 flags, single sided for 3.5 x 7.5 flags, and double sided for 3.5 x 7.5 flags. Each kit includes a square metal pole, straps, end cap, and mounting hardware. Replacement stainless steel straps and self-locking nylon straps are stocked separately, and double strapping is recommended in high-wind areas.

Free-Flying Drape Flags

Smaller drape flags fly from a conventional flagpole using brass grommets on a heavy bleached canvas header. The 3ft x 5ft authorized dealer drape flag and the compact 2.5ft x 3.5ft version display manufacturer branding without any bracket hardware. Mid-size options include the single faced interceptor message flag in 16 stock messages and the double faced message flag in 11, plus the double faced authorized dealer flag in 42 make and model options.

FAQ

How do I hang a drape flag?

It depends on the style. Interceptor flags have a sewn sleeve at the top and bottom and slide onto an Interceptor bracket, which straps to a light pole, sign post, or building wall. No flagpole or halyard is needed. Free-flying drape flags such as the 3ft x 5ft authorized dealer flag have brass grommets on a canvas header and attach to a standard flagpole halyard with clips.

Do interceptor flags come with the bracket?

No. Interceptor flags are sold as the flag only, and the bracket kit is purchased separately. Match the bracket to both the flag size and the number of printed faces:

Once the bracket is mounted, future flags cost only the price of the flag.

What is the difference between single faced and double faced?

A single faced flag is printed on one side and reads correctly from one direction, which suits a flag mounted against a building or facing a single approach. A double faced flag is printed so the message reads correctly from both sides, which matters on a light pole in the middle of a lot or along a road with traffic in both directions. Double faced flags cost more and require a double sided bracket.

What sizes are available for drape flags?

Interceptor flags are 3ft x 8ft and 3.5ft x 7.5ft, sized for roadside visibility on poles and buildings. Free-flying drape flags come in 2.5ft x 3.5ft and 3ft x 5ft, better suited to on-premise display from an existing flagpole.

What are drape flags made from?

Flags are finished with a heavy bleached canvas header, the reinforced strip along the mounting edge, with brass grommets on the free-flying styles. Flag bodies vary by product; the checkered interceptor flag, for example, is 100% DuPont Nylon 66. Interceptor bracket kits are built from heavy-duty G005 T-5 aluminum alloy rather than fiberglass or PVC.
