Basic Stand Types
Telescoping Stands
The most popular stands for step and repeat banners are called “Telescoping Stands.” They come with easy-to-follow instructions and illustrations.
These stands have “telescoping poles” meaning that the poles extend out, much like a telescope, and contract back into themselves. All of the poles fit in a carrying case (a sturdy bag that is about 48″ wide).

Pipe and Base Stands
Pipe and base (also known as Pipe and Drape) stands are the best solution for larger banners. They are adjustable and easy to set up. Pipe & base stands are also available to rent. The horizontal supports easily “hook” on to the vertical poles.
Truss Displays
High-quality aluminum alloy truss designed for live stages, theatres, night clubs, and event installations anywhere.
Pop-up Displays
Portable display that takes two minutes to setup without tools. Fabric graphic easily attaches to frame with velcro. Easy Hook and Loop mounting on all 4 sides.
Fabric Stretch Displays
This display is a great alternative to vinyl banners. The soft fabric graphic stretches over the frame to create a seamless and eye catching display. The fabric can be folded and any wrinkles smooth out once they are stretched tightly onto the frame.
Media Walls
Step and Repeat LA offers seamless media walls for grand, upscale events. This is not the standard banner material that is zip-tied to a stand, this is a beautiful wall of logos that you usually see on TV for celebrity and VIP events. These media walls can be created at ANY SIZE to accommodate your needs and wants. One single, large print is stretched onto a frame so that there are no wrinkles or creases. No stand shows from the front and the sides can be finished off for a sleek, polished look. When you request a quote, it will include logo layout, printing, fabrication, delivery, installation and take-down. Our team will take care of the entire red carpet set-up from start to finish.
TELESCOPING STANDS:
The most popular stand for smaller events is the “Telescoping Stand”. This stand is best for smaller events up to 8×10 (8×12 works, too, but not as ideal). This stand comes with easy-to-follow instructions and illustrations as well as an online video.
These stands have “telescoping poles” meaning that the poles extend out, much like a telescope, and contract back into themselves. All of the poles fit in a carrying case (a sturdy bag that is about 48″ wide). This bag is free with purchase of stand.
