LCD Enclosures, Education & Digital Signage

Take a look at the forward thinking schools, corporations and institutions and you will see they have discovered how to communicate more effectively. Find out how you can use digital signage to learn and teach via a digital medium.

Dynamic signs are being deployed every where and this is changing the way education professionals communicate, making it much easier for both faculty and students to communicate and much more cost effective.

Some campuses have created additional revenue from these signs, selling chunks of advertising space on the screens. This is not limited to just education, any place that uses printed signage, such as bus shelters, pay phone booths, shopping malls and tops of gas pumps have the potential to improve their worth by upgrading and using dynamic digital messaging.

Take note of the challenges.
It sounds almost too easy to deploy a digital signage campaign in a college campus, we all (well mostly) have flat panel screens at home, we have taken them home and plugged them in and got them working, so deploying a signage system cannot but much more difficult – can it?

Home cinema and dynamic signage using flat panel displays are similar in looks, however different in many other ways.

Content strategy has to start from the very beginning and the content that will be distributed throughout the network will differ throughout the enterprise, with variations from screen orientation, do you want it in landscape or portrait? Display size, will you be using 36”, 42 or 65 inch displays?

There is also the vandalism aspect to consider too, in all walks of life there is a small minority of people who will vandalise things that others enjoy using, one of the quickest, easiest and cost effective ways to protect from this element is to put the flat panel display into either a plasma or LCD enclosure.

Manufactured from heavy gauge steel and fully welded these are designed to deter the most violent attacks from rocks, bricks, footballs and occasionally gun fire! These units provide a safe environment for the displays and media players as they are cooled and even heated as they require.

These outdoor TV boxes are second to none for protecting the display inside.

LCD Enclosure Global are the worlds leading manufacturer of LCD enclosures, these are supplied to the top digital signage installers throughout America, Australia, Europe and the UK. They have also launched a self service kiosk at a cost effective price.

Enclosure Kiosk – Standard or custom units?

When a client decides to deploy a kiosk, the easy part is done. Now is the time you are bombarded with questions and here are the answers to those questions.

You will certainly be asked, “what sort of enclosure to be used? What works best? And how much will it cost?” The best answer is that it depends upon the application, location and funding.

Enclosure design is one of the key factors in selecting an enclosure, these are perfect for standard enclosures that are pre built offering a wide range of functionality, these are produced in quantities by the manufacturers.

A custom enclosure are unique, they are purpose built for a specific task to match the customers demands. These tend to have a longer lead in period and certainly cost more than a standard enclosure, as all the bends, welds and cutting settings are one offs requiring individual attention throughout production.

Custom units are less common due to the cost implications; however they do allow companies considerable latitude on design. Enclosure manufacturers estimate that roughly 80 percent of their product is for standard units.

A quick look guide on comparing custom with standard enclosures.

Standard Kiosk Features Custom Kiosk Features
Pre designed Unique designed
Pre built exteriors Specific look and feel
Quick to produce Longer lead time
Lower cost Higher cost


You can have the most elaborate kiosk, but if the software is no good or difficult to use, you are wasting your money. You will also need to bear in mind location, footprint and application.

For example a kiosk that is wall mounted may not be suitable for an application that calls for the kiosk to be floor standing.

LCD Enclosure Global are one of the worlds leading manufacturers of outdoor TV boxes and supply everything from video walls to interactive kiosks.

LCD Enclosures Used to Protect LCD and Plasma Displays in Industrial and Retail Sectors.

When any type of digital signage is deployed to a location is susceptible to vandalism, take the deployment on a factory floor, the electronics that are not protected are vulnerable to abuse, theft and vandalism, what is the best way to protect them would be to enclose them in a special LCD enclosures, these protect all the electronics from unauthorised access.

Theft Protection.

These provide protection, firstly the TV mounts to a special frame, this frame has security screws in it that needs a specific tool to be removed, once the TV is mounted and secured into position the cables enter the enclosure and the enclosure is locked.

Vandal Protection.

Well when anyone sees a digital sign, they presume the vulnerable part to be the screen, however there are units that are designed (and do) resist the impact of a standard house brick.

Touch Screen Display.

This is an interactive touch resistant film that is attached to the rear of the access door, so people can use their finger as a mouse and the film is accurate to 0.5mm. It is basically plug and play once attached to the screen. There are two types of touch resistant film the 4 wire and the 5 wire, the later being the better option as there is more wire in any square on the display making it more accurate.

These are easily deployed and integrated into any Industrial or Retail application.

Dust or Waterproof Solutions.

When any electronics need protecting from dust or fluid, depending upon if the solution, there are 2 main categories IP56 (dust proof and splash proof) or IP65 (waterproof – washed down with a high pressure water jet). IP65 is the European standard and is the nearest equivalent to NEMA 4X the USA standard.
