Choosing the right display

Three things decide which sign you need

Viewing distance

Short distances suit a tighter pixel pitch and clearer detail. Longer roadside or building-front viewing can use larger formats with strong brightness.

Indoor or outdoor

Indoor displays prioritise close-range readability. Outdoor signs need weather-ready cabinets, brightness and service access.

Hire or purchase

Hire suits short-term traffic, events and project work. Purchase is usually better for permanent school, retail, industrial or public displays.
