Digital signage is not only an indoor form of advertising and marketing. Increasingly, outdoor locations are having screens installed too. But an outdoor environment requires protecting the digital signage display otherwise the screen will fail and need replacing. This article is about how digital signage housing protects display screens in outdoor locations.
Outdoor digital signage is fast catching up with the use of indoor screens. There are many advantages to placing a screen outside for advertising, promotion, branding or marketing. Firstly, the audiences are larger outdoors, and larger audiences mean more views. Secondly, as opposed to an indoor screen that just displays content to existing customers, an outdoor display advertises to a wider range of people, helping drive people into stores, or making more people aware of brands and promotions.
Outdoor digital signage is also 24-hour. An outdoor sign is as effective at night (even more effective with a modern bright HD screen, which an audience can view from a good distance away), and as outdoor digital signage is not yet as popular as indoor screens, there is less digital competition. And of course, a vibrant, modern HD display is going to be more effective than a traditional static screen.
The challenges with outdoor digital signage, however, require a lot of forethought. Firstly, there is the weather to think about; any screen operating outdoors needs waterproofing and protection from the weather. Even the smallest amount of water will disable a display if allowed to penetrate inside, while other weather elements such as snow, ice, hail and even windblown dust will also lead to screen failure.
Digital signage displays need protecting from other aspects of the weather, such as temperature, too. A screen allowed to get too hot will overheat and eventually fail, while freezing cold temperature can also lead to permanent damage.
And the weather is not the only thing an outdoor screen needs protecting from; damage caused by impacts, whether accidental or through vandalism, can permanently put a screen out of action.
The basis for any outdoor screen is the digital signage housing. The digital signage housing needs to protect the screen from all the elements as well as provide a tough physical barrier against impact. Many outdoor screens are specifically designed for outdoor use, and while the housings protects from most weather elements is often not adequate enough for extreme temperature locations or tough enough to cope with vandalism.
Some digital signage housings, however, provide a form of outdoor protection that not only enables standard screens to function in outdoor environments and provide perfect conditions for screens regardless of temperature or ambient conditions, but also physically protects the screen.
A steel LCD enclosure has many benefits over the normal digital signage housing outdoor screens provide. Not only is a steel housing tough, able to withstand even the most determine vandal, but the secret to the effectiveness of the protection lies within.
Climatic systems such as cooling fans, heaters, insulation and shaped breathing chambers for expelling hot air, govern the internal environment of an LCD enclosure. This enables almost any standard LCD display, once housed in the digital signage enclosure to function in almost any outdoor environment.
Tough, weatherproof and able to cope with extreme temperature ranges, LCD enclosure offer a comprehensive form of digital signage housing that ensures the screen will continue to function regardless of the weather or environment. LCD enclosures are also cost-effective enabling the use of cheaper, standard displays rather than expensive outdoor screens.
