Print Marketing Tips

Door Hanger Printing

 

Door hanger printing is one of the most effective local marketing tools available. Placed directly on doorknobs, door hangers cannot be overlooked, ignored, or buried in a pile of mail. Every person who comes home finds your message waiting at eye level - making door hangers uniquely visible compared to flyers, postcards, or digital ads that compete for attention in crowded channels.

At Copies America, we offer two door hanger products to match every campaign need. Standard Door Hangers for clean, impactful brand messaging, and Tearoff Door Hangers for campaigns that include a coupon, contact strip, or action mechanism recipients can keep in their wallet. Both printed full color on thick 14pt cardstock with precision die-cutting and gloss or matte coating.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What size are door hangers?

The standard door hanger size is 4.25" x 11" with a die-cut slot or hole at the top for hanging on a door handle. This size is universally compatible with residential and most commercial door handles and is the industry standard format used across all door hanger campaigns.

What is a tearoff door hanger?

A tearoff door hanger is a standard 4.25" x 11" door hanger with a perforated section at the bottom that recipients can tear away. The tear-off strip - typically about 4.25" x 2" - can contain a coupon code, discount offer, phone number, QR code, or appointment card that recipients keep in their pocket while the main hanger stays on the door.

Should I choose gloss or matte coating?

Gloss UV coating makes colors vibrant and images crisp - ideal for colorful, photo-heavy designs and bold marketing messages. Matte coating gives a refined, non-glare finish preferred for professional services and more understated brands. Both are equally durable for outdoor doorknob display.

How many door hangers do I need for a local campaign?

A typical residential block has 20-30 homes. For a focused neighborhood campaign, most service businesses start with 500-1,000 door hangers for their immediate service area. Volume pricing makes larger quantities significantly more economical per piece - contact us for bulk pricing.

How do I set up my door hanger file?

Submit a print-ready PDF at 300 DPI in CMYK. Your file with bleed should be 4.5" x 11.25" (0.125" bleed on all sides). Keep all critical text and logos at least 0.125" from trim edges and at least 1.5" below the top to avoid the die-cut slot area. Outline all fonts before saving.
