Slim, Professional Cable-Suspended Poster Displays
Explore the Range: Portrait, Landscape & More
Our regular (non-illuminated) cable-suspended displays are a cost-effective counterpart to our LED light pockets.
Often called easy-access pockets, they present your posters with a clean, professional finish. Ultra-slim 1.5 mm cables and satin fixings keep the hardware visually quiet so the creative does the talking.
Changing prints is fast – simply flex the front acrylic panel and slide the poster in or out. Each pocket is double-sided, so you can advertise to the street and the interior at the same time.
What exactly are they?
A modular set of clear acrylic poster sleeves suspended between vertical cables using compact satin mini-clamps. Order complete kits from our pre-configured layouts, or add individual parts to extend or customise a display.
Who are they for?
Widely used by estate and letting agents, and equally popular in retail, hospitality, education, visitor venues and more. If you rotate offers, menus or property cards frequently, these are a tidy, long-lived, budget-friendly choice.

Real-World Cable Displays in Use
Window Poster Kit – 1×2 Portrait Example
A clean, daylight shot from a small shop window shows exactly what non-lit cable displays do best: present your posters with crisp, unobstructed focus. Satin-finish metal fixings secure two crystal-clear acrylic pockets between discreet 1.5 mm cables, keeping the hardware visually quiet so the creative does the talking. Think premium look, straightforward install, and everyday value – ideal for estate agents and equally at home in retail, hospitality, education and more.
Changing A Poster Takes Seconds
This photo shows just how quick and clean it is to swap posters in our cable-suspended pockets. Flex the front acrylic, slide the new print in with your fingertips, and you’re done in a couple of seconds – no clips, screws or tools. Perfect for busy teams updating property cards, menus or promotions throughout the day.
Display mounting options
Cables always hang vertically. End fixings can be fitted floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall or mixed for recesses and angled surfaces. The result is a neat, rigid installation that’s easy to position and adjust.
- Floor to ceiling – the classic window install. Mount top and bottom fixings to horizontal surfaces for straight, plumb cables.
- Wall to wall – ideal for corridors or behind counters when glazing isn’t available.
- Ceiling to wall / Floor to wall – used when one surface can’t be drilled into – for example, a suspended ceiling or a marble floor.
- Angled mounting – optional angle fixings allow approximately 0–135° to suit sloped ceilings or architectural details.
- Simple adjustment – slide any pocket up or down by loosening its grub-screws, repositioning, then re-tightening.
Questions & Answers
Question:
Can I fit them myself, and if so what tools do I need?
Answer:
Yes, you certainly can fit them yourself. It requires only a moderate DIY skill level, so you can think of it as being a typical handyman type of task.
You’ll need an electric drill, a pair of side/wire cutters, a Philips screwdriver, and a tape measure.
Question:
Can the “floor to ceiling” cables be fitted into a window recess top to bottom?
Answer:
Yes, and the cables being called “floor to ceiling” is simply a naming convention. What they really are is: “horizontal top surface to horizontal bottom surface”.
Question:
Will I receive enough cable length to hang the displays from my really high ceiling?
Answer:
The cable is supplied as cable-kits, and so you’ll receive the correct number of cable-kits for your display, and each cable-kit consists of 4 metres of cable and the top and bottom fixings.
Typically, 4 metres of cable is easily long enough, but just be aware that if the distance spanned from your floor to ceiling (or e.g. window recess top to bottom) is greater than 4 metres, you’ll need to let us know.
Question:
Can I adjust the position of the display after I’ve installed it?
Answer:
You can easily adjust the height of each acrylic pocket/sleeve, simply by loosening the small grub-screws in the mini clamps that secure the given pocket to the cables, and then sliding it up/down as desired.
However, you won’t be able to adjust the horizontal positioning of the overall display unless you purchase the optional horizontal channel tracking…
But as long as you think carefully about the display’s position (left/right) before you mark out and drill the fixing holes, the channel tracking isn’t required (unless you’re going to move it left/right from time to time for whatever reason).
