Artwork and Proofs

Artwork and Proofing for Custom Windsocks and Flags

At the Custom Windsocks Company we understand that artwork can be a bit of a headache when ordering. Our aim is to take the pain out of ordering such that you can be confident in the product you're getting. 

 

FREE Proofs and Mock-ups

For all custom products we provide free proofs. You can rest assured that we won't simply go to production and produce something that you were not expecting. TO speed up the proofing process, add your notes in the "notes" section when ordering.  Tell us what would like to see  ie: "change my logo to red and add the text "ABC" under it".  Important note: This applies only to custom products, not  "personalized" products where you choose our design template and add your name/text.

FREE Logo Vectorization

We will vectorize your logo for free (and then give you the file!). What does this mean? It means that we will turn your lo-resolution art into "vector art" which will not pixelate when enlarged for FREE. Oftentimes this is a barrier for many people as they cannot locate their vector file from when their logo was created or they simply just don't have it. No worries, we'll do it for you AND we'll send it to you for future use with us or anyone else you may want to get things printed with for FREE (T-shirts, business cards, promo products...they all need a vector file). We'll even pull your logo off a business card, sign, T-shirt or anything you can get a decent photo of!

FREE Logo Alteration

We can manipulate your logo so that it will show up well on your custom windsock or custom flag. This means we can take your stacked logo and turn into a landscape version so it fits well on your product or we may flip your color scheme around such that it shows up well on the windsock or flag. Of course, you can request this or we may take the liberty of doing it and then showing you a couple of options to see if you like it.    

Sizing

Heavy-Duty Windsock Sizing

So you need a windsock..but now, what size?

Windsock size is often dictated by your viewing distance and how the windsock will be mounted. Of course, if you already have a frame, your windsock diameter will be set and you only need to choose a length that worlds for you. See our Visibility of Windsocks Guide below for more information

How to Measure your Existing Windsock

 It can get confusing sometimes on how windsocks are measured. The standard is always to measure windsocks diameter and length and present it as: diameter" x length". See the below infographic guide on how to measure a windsock and determine the diameter

How to Measure Windsock Diameters

Fitting a Windsock onto Your Double or Extended Hoop Frame

If you have a double hoop or extended hoop frame, you should ensure the replacement windsock you purchase will fit over both the outer and inner hoop of the frame. Every frame manufacturer has a different standard and thus some measuring is required to ensure that your replacement windsock will fit onto your frame. Your two options are:

  1. If you do not have an existing windsock: Measure the diameter of the second hoop as well as the distance from the first hoop to the second hoop. See our visual guide below on which dimensions we require.
Infogrpahic on how to measure a double hoop or extended windsock frame

2. If you do have an existing windsock that fits your frame: Measure diameter of the inlet mouth, the length of the windsock as well as the diameter of the outlet mouth. See our guide above on how to measure a windsock.

Installation

Heavy-Duty Windsock Installation

For Windsock Frame Sizes 18”, 24”, 36” from the Custom Windsock Co.


Step 1) Purchase a Windsock Frame

Step 2) Purchase a stainless steel ¾ NPT female coupling and a ¾  NPT male pole. One size of the coupling will thread into the bottom of the windsock frame and the other will thread onto your pole. The pole you purchase may be long or short, depending on your application and if you are going to attach it to anything else. These can easily be purchased from your local hardware store or here:

Step 3) Attach the pole onto your structure

  • Side of building or wall: You may want to use a vertical mount like this:
  • On another pole: If you’re looking to put your windsock high in the air on a pole, chances are that a small diameter pole like above won’t do the trick. You can use another coupling with one side being ¾ NPT and the other side being larger so it can attach onto another larger diameter pole that can be installed in the ground. The other option is to attach it onto your larger diameter pole with hose clamps or banding

Step 4) Install the windsock with the use of HD UV rated zip ties (don't buy the white ones, the black ones are usually UV rated.  


Note: all frame manufacturers have different specifications. Contact the manufacturer of your frame for instructions on mounting.
