If you’ve ever been “hung up” on how to make a statement right at the doorstep, you’re in the right place. Door hangers are the first impression, the initial greeting, and sometimes, the cheeky “Do Not Disturb” sign after a long night.
But what truly makes a door hanger stand out from the “knock-offs”?
Is it the design, the message, or perhaps the puns that make you chuckle? Let’s “swing” into the elements that make a door hanger not just good, but “door-mazing”!
To create a door hanger in Canva, simply search “door hanger” from the home screen search box. Then, select the template that best suits your needs. From there, you can add, subtract, and edit elements to your liking. That said, since there aren’t many options to choose from, I’ve handpicked the best options for you. I’ve listed them below with links and what makes them great.

Overflowing with colors reminiscent of a disco ball, it’s here to ensure your message doesn’t just hang—it dances, it sings, it celebrates!
While it might be labeled as a phone wallpaper, with a dash of creativity, it’s ready to swing, sway, and sashay on any door.
Playful, vibrant, and unapologetically fun, it’s the door hanger that says, “Why walk when you can boogie?” and “Why whisper when you can sing?”
Frankly, that’s it! While Canva has a couple of other door hanger templates, they aren’t much different (or better) than what is shown here.
But in the spirit of Canva, you can get a little creative and think outside of the box. For instance, if you can’t find something to hang on the door knob, how about a door sign? The “Package Thief Mail Door Sign” is such an example, with a minimal design and bold message.
That said, hanging door signs, especially those made from paper or cardstock templates from platforms like Canva, might be a little more tricky, but can be done in various ways depending on the material of the door and the desired permanence.
With ribbon or string, you can punch a hole at the top of the sign. Then thread a ribbon or string through the hole, and tie a knot or bow, and hang it on a doorknob or hook.
With adhesive strips or hooks, like Command strips, ensure they don’t damage the door’s paint or finish when removed. And with magnetic strips, if the door is metal, you can attach magnetic strips to the back of the sign.
Alternatively, with a clip or clothespin! If there’s an existing structure, like a grille or mesh on the door, you can use a clip or clothespin to attach the sign. Suction cups could also work—if the door is glass, you can attach small suction cups to the sign. Press the suction cups onto the glass door to hang the sign.
