HOOQD | How much does an LED screen cost?

An LED screen costs between € 2.000,- and € 150.000,-, depending on its size, pixel pitch, intended use and whether it is an indoor or outdoor solution. Most retail or sports solutions start at around € 5.000,- to € 15.000,-. A custom outdoor screen for a professional stadium or large-scale façade is more likely to cost between € 30.000,- and € 100.000,-. In this article, we explain which factors determine the price, so you know what to look out for.

What determines the price of an LED screen?

The price of an LED screen depends on a combination of factors. It’s not just the screen itself, but also the installation, content management and support that come with it. These are the main factors:

1. Size

The larger the screen, the more LED modules, housing, cabling and construction work are required. A screen measuring 2 by 1 metres costs significantly less than one measuring 6 by 3 metres. Installation work also increases with larger screens, as scaffolding, anchors or a special suspension structure are often required.

2. Pixel pitch

The pixel pitch is the distance between two LED points, measured in millimetres. The smaller the pixel pitch, the closer the pixels are together and the sharper the image at close range. A fine pixel pitch (P1.5 or P2) costs more than a coarse pitch (P8 or P10), because there are more components per square metre of screen. For a shop window viewed from two metres away, you need a finer pitch than for perimeter LED boarding alongside a football pitch, viewed from a distance of thirty metres.

3. Indoor or outdoor

Outdoor screens cost more than indoor screens. They need to withstand rain, sun, wind and temperature fluctuations. This requires a more robust housing, a higher IP rating, better cooling and greater screen brightness, so the screen remains readable in bright sunlight.

4. Brightness

An outdoor screen needs greater brightness to remain visible in direct sunlight. The higher the required brightness, the higher the cost of the components and energy.

5. Installation and mounting

Installation costs depend on how complex the mounting is. A freestanding screen on a plinth is simpler to install than a screen recessed into a façade or mounted on a tall structure. For larger projects, expect installation costs on top of the price of the screen.

6. Content creation and management

A screen without content does nothing. Content creation and management are separate costs. At HOOQD, you can choose to manage it yourself using a simple system, or we can take care of it for you.

7. Maintenance and warranty

A high-quality screen lasts 10 years or more, but needs periodic maintenance. At HOOQD, every purchase comes with a 3-year all-in warranty as standard. This means free repairs and support during the first three years. After that, you can opt for a maintenance contract.
