How is an LED screen installed?

Step 1: the consultation

It all starts with a conversation. What do you want to achieve: what message, for which audience, and at which location? We’ll ask about the viewing distance, lighting conditions, available space and budget.

If possible, we’ll visit the location. Seeing it in person can reveal things that don’t stand out in a photo or drawing: the angle of the sunlight at a particular time of day, the distance to the nearest power socket, or the load-bearing capacity of a wall or structure.

You don’t need any technical knowledge. Tell us what you want to achieve and we’ll find the right solution.

Step 2: concept and visualisation

After the consultation, we’ll put together a proposal. This includes recommendations on the size, Pixel pitch and position, a visualisation of how the screen will look at the location, and a technical specification of the solution. The visualisation shows you how the screen will fit into its surroundings, so you can make an informed decision. No surprises later about its size or appearance.

Step 3: quotation and planning

You’ll receive a clear quotation listing all costs: the screen, installation, cabling, any construction work and the warranty. One total, with no separate items that add up later.

Once you’ve approved the quotation, we’ll draw up a schedule. We’ll agree when our installers will come and how long the installation will take. For straightforward installations, this takes half a day. Larger or more complex projects may take several days.

• Single-screen installation (indoor, wall-mounted): 0,5 - 1 day
• Medium-sized installation (outdoor, mounted on a frame or façade): 1 - 5 days
• Large installation (stadium, multiple screens): 5 days or more

Step 4: installation

On the agreed day, our team will come to your location. We’ll take care of the complete installation and technical connections. This includes:

• Securing the housing or structure
• Installing the LED panels
• Connecting the cabling and power supply
• Installing the media player and software
• Calibrating the screen: brightness, colour balance and image quality
• Running the first test with content

We won’t leave until the screen is working perfectly and you’re happy. Not a moment sooner.

Please make sure someone is available on the day of installation to let us into the building and answer any questions.

Step 5: handover and support

After the installation, we’ll take the time to show you how the system works. We’ll show you how to upload, schedule and edit content using your phone or laptop. This takes 15 to 30 minutes, after which you can get started on your own.

We’ll still be here if you need us. For questions, changes or faults. 24/7.

What do I need to arrange myself?

It’s useful to arrange the following in advance:

• Make sure there’s a power socket close to where you want the screen
• Check that a Wi-Fi connection is available at the installation location
• Inform your landlord or residents’ association if the screen is going on a shared property
• Make sure someone is available on the day of installation

How long does it take from the first conversation to a working LED screen?

That depends on how complex the project is. For standard installations, allow:

• Consultation and site analysis: within 5 working days
• Concept, visualisation and quotation: 1 week
• Screen production and delivery: depending on the type of screen, we may be able to supply it directly from stock. For orders with non-standard sizes or LED types: 8-10 weeks.
• Installation: 1 - 5 days

In total, it takes an average of 3 to 6 weeks from the first conversation to a working screen. For urgent projects, we’ll always look at what’s possible.
