Presenting a counter design? Put it on this outdoor a-stand mockup and the client sees the real thing, not a flat file.
It’s a handy file for exhibitors and retail marketers. Match the brightness of your design to the scene; a very bright graphic in a shaded spot looks pasted in.
Agencies use scenes like this in pitch decks, where a realistic placement often sells the idea more than the artwork alone. Combine it with a poster or bus stop ad to show the campaign across several placements.
The file is made by Mockups Design. The download button takes you to their page, where you get the original file and the licence details.
What’s inside the Outdoor A-Stand Mockup PSD
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Ad artwork, placed through the smart object
- Brightness to match the scene
- Lighting and shadow layers
- Glow layer for backlit scenes, where included
How to use the Outdoor A-Stand Mockup
- Export the ad artwork large so it stays sharp in the scene.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Export with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
Worth remembering: outdoor ads are read in a second or two. Big type and one image will look far better in this scene than a busy layout.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this display stand mockup for client work?
That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.
How do I put my artwork on the display stand?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
What ratio should my artwork be?
Open the smart object and check its canvas; design to that ratio. Most outdoor mockups use common print ratios, but it varies from file to file.
