Clear opening
Width and height that must stay free for runners, vehicles, timing mats or a gantry.
A custom inflatable finish-line arch spans a race route and carries event or sponsor artwork. Specify the required clear opening, timing-equipment clearance and available ground area. Confirm overall dimensions, securing method and operating requirements against the venue plan before ordering.

What to know first
A finish-line arch has an unobstructed opening and an overall footprint; these are not the same measurement. Timing equipment introduces additional clearance requirements.
Send the required clear opening width and height, course plan, timing-system clearance, surface and fixing restrictions. Request the proposed material and seam specification, air-system model, local voltage and plug, operating instructions, repair items and packing as itemized quotation fields. State whether sponsor graphics are fixed or need a separately reviewed removable-panel option.
Compare the same display function, approved shape, dimensions and equipment scope. Named customer projects are examples, not identical stock products or proof of matching performance.

Site planning
The drawing for quotation should keep the unobstructed race lane separate from the arch structure around it.
Width and height that must stay free for runners, vehicles, timing mats or a gantry.
The clear opening plus both legs and the ground-fixing area.
The top of the arch above the course, checked against timing equipment and the camera line.
Other formats
An entrance arch frames a passage between its legs. The space needed for the structure and securing arrangement extends beyond the clear opening.
The defining feature of this format is the curved crown. A graphic placed along that curve needs a reviewed layout rather than a flat banner assumption.
This format requests a straight crown rather than a continuous curved span. Inflated corners and the usable printed area still require drawing approval.
All of these sit under custom inflatable arches, where the shared specifications and the full buyer checklist live.
Buyer FAQ
Provide clear opening width and height, course layout, timing-equipment clearance and available ground footprint. Include the surface, sponsor artwork, quantity, destination and required arrival date. Ask the drawing to distinguish the opening from overall dimensions and securing zones. Compare the proposed material, blower, accessories, packing and freight on the same scope; a removable sponsor panel is not included unless explicitly agreed.
Confirm the material, construction, inflation method and exact equipment in the quotation for the approved design. Specify any existing equipment you intend to reuse and request a compatibility review; the product image alone does not define the supply scope.
Provide quantities by design and artwork version, destination and requested arrival date. Confirm minimum quantity and production timing after final approval, with freight and import handling listed separately. The project quotation governs the agreed schedule.
