Outdoor LED Screens and Building Facades
Outdoor LED screens are weather-sealed, high-brightness displays that stay readable in direct UAE sun, from shopfront screens to full building facades. We design the structure, handle the RTA, Municipality and other approvals the location needs, then install with our own team, for building owners, retailers, advertisers and government sites.

Where Outdoor LED Screens Work Best
Typical projects we plan and install.
Building Facades
Large screens fixed to the face of a building, seen from the road and across the area.
Corner Screens
Screens that wrap a building corner so they read from two streets at once.
Shopfronts and Entrances
Medium screens over the entrance that carry offers and the brand day and night.
Stadiums and Open Venues
Score and content screens built for heat, dust and long running hours.
Approvals Handled by Us
We handle the approvals ourselves: RTA, Municipality and any other government approval a screen needs, when one is required. The agency or government fee is charged on top, at cost, exactly as the agency or government sets it.
Built for UAE Sun and Heat
Brightness comes first. A screen in direct sun needs 6,000 nits or more to stay readable at midday, and should dim automatically at night so it does not glare.
Look for IP65 on the front and proper ventilation behind. Summer heat and dust are the main enemies of an outdoor screen, so we plan airflow, sun exposure and cleaning access in the structure design.
Facade screens need a structural design: the steel frame, fixings to the building and wind loads. We prepare these drawings, which the approval authorities usually ask for.

Questions About Outdoor LED Screens
Do I need approval for an outdoor LED screen?
Usually, yes. We handle the approvals ourselves: RTA, Municipality and any other government approval a screen needs, when one is required. The agency or government fee is charged on top, at cost, exactly as the agency or government sets it.
How bright should an outdoor LED screen be?
In direct sun, 6,000 nits and above. Shaded locations can work at 4,500 to 5,500 nits. A light sensor dims the screen after sunset.
Will the screen survive the summer?
Yes, when it is specified and installed for it. That means outdoor-rated cabinets, IP65 sealing, ventilation and a structure that keeps the back of the screen out of trapped heat.
How long does a building facade screen take?
It depends on size and approvals. The structure and approvals usually take longer than fitting the cabinets. We give you a programme after the survey and design.
Can you control the screen remotely?
Yes. We set up a player and controller that can be managed over the network, with scheduled content and brightness.
