Political Door Hangers

What Are Political Door Hangers?

Political door hangers are printed cards with a cut-out at the top that hang over a door handle, printed full color on 14pt or 16pt gloss cover stock in 4 sizes, from a 3.5" x 8.5" up to a 4.25" x 14". Campaigns reach for them when mail and broadcast ads fall short: candidate introductions, endorsement pushes, get-out-the-vote drops, ballot measure outreach, and voter registration drives. Because the card hangs right on the door, it gets a look that a mailer in a stack never does. If you also need signs for the same race, the Political Signs cover lawns and rallies, and the door hanger sits right beside them as the door-to-door pick.

What Size Should a Political Door Hanger Be?

The right size comes down to how much you need to say. A 3.5" x 8.5" is the compact one, enough for a candidate name, a race and a voting date, ideal for a fast get-out-the-vote drop. A 3.5" x 11" or the default 4.25" x 11" gives you more room, space for a photo, a short list of endorsements and a QR code to your site. The largest, 4.25" x 14", reads almost like a mini flyer on the door, with room for a full platform, a candidate bio or a slate of names. All 4 sizes, both ink options and the finish are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. To carry the same race across other formats, the Political Postcards handle the mail piece and the Political Yard Signs hold the lawn.

Here are a few easy ways to make a political door hanger pull its weight.

Pick a stock that survives the weather

A door hanger lives outdoors, on a handle, in sun and rain until the voter gets home, so the stock matters. The 14pt gloss cover keeps it clean and budget-friendly, which stretches a field program across more doors, while the 16pt gloss cover adds thickness and a more substantial feel in the hand. Both get a High Gloss UV Coating that adds shine and helps the card shrug off weather and handling. For ink, print 4/0 for full color on the front with a blank back, or 4/4 for full color on both sides when you want the candidate up front and voting details on the reverse.

Add a tear-off the voter keeps

This is the feature that makes a political door hanger work twice. Add a perforation 2" from the bottom and the voter can tear off a strip, a polling place and date, a QR code to register or a pledge-to-vote card, and keep it long after the hanger comes off the door. Prefer a clean card? Choose No Perforation. It is the simplest way to turn a single door contact into a reminder that sits on the fridge until election day.

Design it without a designer

You do not need a design background to make a political door hanger look sharp. Start from a professionally built layout in our door hanger design templates, then change the colors, copy and logo in the online editor in minutes. The tall, narrow canvas actually helps, since one candidate photo and a clear ask fill it.

How Much Do Political Door Hangers Cost?

Political door hangers start at $290.41 per 250 units, and the per-unit price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 25,000, so a cheap political door hanger really comes down to how big a run you order. The jump from 250 to 1,000 barely moves the total but slashes the per-unit cost by two thirds. So how many doors does your precinct walk actually cover? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-unit cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
