LED wall installation types explained

How it goes in

Five ways to put a wall up.

Ground supported, rigged, wall mounted or built into the booth. Here is what each one means and what it needs.

Every LED wall has to attach to something. Which method you use changes what the booth needs, what the venue has to approve, and how much floor you give up. These are the five we build, in plain terms.

Type 1 of 5

Window mount / embedded

The LED sits inside an opening in the booth wall, so the structure wraps the screen and it reads as part of the build instead of a panel hung on top of it.

Best when
You want the screen to look built in, or the booth design already has an opening for it.
What it needs
A surrounding structure that carries the weight, and access behind the wall for cable and service.

Wall mounting

The wall hangs flat against a booth wall or a hard wall on brackets fixed back to the structure.

Best when
Floor space is tight and there is a solid wall that can take the load.
What it needs
A wall rated to carry the weight, plus depth behind it for brackets and cable runs.

Type 3 of 5

Ground supported

The wall stands on its own frame on the floor. Nothing hangs from the ceiling, so the venue never has to give up a rigging point.

Best when
The venue will not allow rigging, rigging is expensive, or you want to skip ceiling coordination altogether.
What it needs
Floor space for the frame, including the depth it takes up behind the screen.

Type 4 of 5

Rigging

The wall hangs from venue rigging points or from truss, so the floor underneath stays clear.

Best when
You want the floor open, or the wall needs to sit high enough to read over a crowd.
What it needs
Approved rigging points or truss, venue sign off, and a rigging plot.

Type 5 of 5

Rigging with a back cover

A rigged wall with a finished panel across the back, so the rear reads as a clean surface instead of exposed frame and cable.

Best when
The back of the wall is in view, which is normal for island booths and any wall that floats in the middle of a space.
What it needs
Everything rigging needs, plus the extra weight and depth the cover adds.
