Make Your Message Stand Tall: Custom Table Tents from Trailhead Printing

Table Tents

When space is limited but impact matters, table tents are the perfect way to grab attention right where your audience is—at the table. Whether you’re running a restaurant, café, event, or tradeshow, a well-designed table tent turns everyday surfaces into prime advertising space.


At Trailhead Printing, we produce table tents that do more than just sit there. Printed in full color on sturdy stock and available in both standard and custom sizes, our table tents are built to last and designed to impress. Showcase your specials, promote seasonal offers, or display QR codes that drive customers directly to your website or menu—all with a clean, professional finish that reflects your brand’s quality.


Need help designing the perfect layout? Our team can help you create something that stands out from every angle. From quick-turn restaurant signage to event promotions, we make it easy to get your message on every table.

Table tents start as low as $0.75 on matte cardstock and $1.25 on gloss.

Adobe Templates

To ensure your table tents print perfectly, please prepare your files using these specifications:

  • Color Mode: CMYK for accurate color reproduction.
  • Panel Size: Each panel measures 5.5" x 7" (before folding).
  • Bleed: Add 0.125" bleed on all sides to allow for edge trimming.
  • Safety Margin: Keep all text and important elements at least 0.25" inside the cut line to prevent accidental trimming.
  • File Format: High-resolution PDF preferred (minimum 300 DPI).

If you’re not sure how to set this up, our design team can help make sure your artwork meets print-ready standards.

Simsbury, Connecticut, is more than just a picturesque town; it's a vibrant community with a strong commitment to supporting local businesses. Whether you're a budding entrepreneur or an established enterprise looking to grow, knowing where to find key resources can make all the difference. At Trailhead Printing , we're proud to be part of the Simsbury business fabric, and we want to help our fellow local businesses thrive. Let's dive into some essential resources that can help your Simsbury business succeed! 1. Granby-Simsbury Chamber of Commerce: Your Local Advocate The Granby-Simsbury Chamber of Commerce is often the first stop for businesses looking to connect and grow within the community. They offer: Networking Opportunities: Regular events, mixers, and forums to meet other local business owners and potential clients. Business Advocacy: A collective voice to represent local business interests to town government and state agencies. Resource Referrals: Guidance on local regulations, economic development programs, and other essential services. Becoming a member is a fantastic way to integrate your business into the local economy and stay informed about important town initiatives. 2. Town of Simsbury Economic Development The Town of Simsbury's Economic Development Department is dedicated to fostering a healthy and growing business environment. They can provide: Guidance for New Businesses: Assistance with understanding local zoning, permitting, and regulatory processes. Data and Demographics: Information on Simsbury's population, consumer base, and market trends to help you make informed decisions. Site Selection Support: Help in finding appropriate locations for your business within the town. Their goal is to ensure that businesses have the support they need to establish, operate, and expand successfully in Simsbury. 3. Understanding Local Regulations: Temporary Sign Permits One often-overlooked but crucial aspect of local business operations is understanding signage regulations. Effective signage is vital for visibility, but it must comply with town ordinances. For businesses looking to use temporary signs to promote events, sales, or seasonal offerings – such as A-frame signs or yard signs – it's important to obtain the necessary permits. These signs are excellent for catching local attention, but the town has rules in place to ensure they are used appropriately and safely. You can find information and the application for a temporary sign permit directly on the Town of Simsbury's website. We highly recommend reviewing this information before deploying any temporary outdoor signage: Link: Town of Simsbury Temporary Sign Permit Application Town of Simsbury Temporary Sign Permit Application Pro Tip: At Trailhead Printing , we specialize in creating durable and eye-catching A-frame signs and yard signs that meet local specifications.
