A5 Sign & Menu Holders: Professional Tabletop Displays
Compact, clear, and professional. Displaysense offers the UK's leading range of A5 sign holders and menu stands. At half the size of A4, the A5 format is the perfect space-saving solution for restaurant tables, retail counters, and reception desks. These holders keep your menus, price lists, and promotions clean, upright, and easy to read.
Our extensive collection includes crystal-clear A5 acrylic holders for double-sided viewing, slanted single-sided stands for easy reading, and premium wooden base options for a rustic look. Designed for standard A5 paper size inserts, they allow you to update your messaging instantly without the need for professional printing services.
Crystal Clear Acrylic
Glass-like clarity. Our A5 acrylic menu holders are manufactured from high-grade materials that won't yellow or cloud over time. They ensure your graphics are displayed in high definition, making text sharp and easy to read.
Double-Sided View
Maximize exposure. Our upright table menu holders allow visibility from both sides. This is essential for restaurant tables or island counters where customers approach from multiple directions.
Easy Paper Insert
Instant updates. Whether it's a slide-in side loading mechanism or a magnetic block, our holders allow you to swap your A5 paper size inserts in seconds—perfect for daily specials or flash sales.
Durable & Safe
Built for busy spaces. Unlike glass, acrylic is shatter-resistant. Our holders are designed to withstand the knocks and bumps of busy dining environments, making them safer for staff and customers.
Standard A5 Fit
No trimming required. Designed specifically for standard 148 x 210 mm paper. You can print your menus or notices on standard A5 sheets (or folded A4) and they will fit perfectly.
Versatile Options
Wide selection. From budget-friendly plastic menu holders to premium magnetic acrylic blocks and rustic wooden clipboards, we have a style to match any decor.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is A5 size in cm?
A5 paper size is 14.8 x 21.0 cm (or 148 x 210 mm). It is exactly half the size of a standard A4 sheet of paper.
What are A5 menu holders used for?
They are primarily used for tabletop displays in restaurants, cafes, and bars to show drink lists or dessert menus. They are also popular in retail for displaying pricing or product specifications on counters.
Is there a difference between single and double-sided?
Yes. Single-sided holders (L-stands) are slanted back for easy reading from one direction, ideal for counters. Double-sided holders (T-stands) stand upright, allowing customers to see the insert from both sides of a table.
Are they made of glass or plastic?
Most of our holders are made from high-impact acrylic or styrene. This material is lighter, safer, and more durable than glass, while offering the same high level of transparency.
How do I clean acrylic sign holders?
Use a soft microfibre cloth and warm soapy water or a specialized anti-static cleaner. Avoid standard glass cleaners or scouring pads, as these can cause the acrylic to cloud or scratch.
Can I use them outdoors?
Standard acrylic holders are lightweight and may blow over outdoors. For outdoor tables, we recommend our heavy-based outdoor menu holders or enclosed chalkboard signs.
Do you offer bulk discounts?
Yes. We offer significant price breaks for bulk orders. This is ideal for hospitality chains or event organizers needing large quantities of A5 sign holders.
Can I display landscape A5?
Yes. While portrait is most common, we also stock A5 landscape holders (210mm wide x 148mm high), which are great for wider graphics or longer text descriptions.
How thick is the acrylic?
Our standard holders use typically 2mm thick acrylic, which offers a good balance of durability and cost. Our premium magnetic blocks can be up to 20mm thick for a luxury, freestanding look.
Can I brand them?
Yes. Acrylic is easy to apply vinyl stickers to. Many of our customers apply their company logo to the base or corner of the holder for a branded finish.
