LED screens are increasingly becoming an indispensable tool at events, fairs, festivals, concerts, marketing and advertising campaigns… But when renting them, mistakes can easily be made. Mistakes that could compromise the quality of the event or lead to unexpected expenses. If you are thinking of renting a LED screen for your event, do not hesitate to read on. As specialists in the rental of LED screens we will expose the 5 most common mistakes when renting a LED screen and how to avoid them.
How to avoid the 5 most common mistakes when renting an LED screen?
Not being clear about the type of event and environment
One of the most common mistakes when renting an LED screen is not thinking about the type of event. You will have to take into account whether the event will be held outdoors or indoors, whether it will be during the day or at night, if there will be many people around…
To avoid this, you should inform the LED screen supplier of all the characteristics of the venue, time of day and number of attendees. In this way, we will be able to recommend the right pixel pitch and guarantee the optimum brightness and resolution for the conditions of the event.
Not considering the viewing distance
Many people do not consider the distance of the audience when renting LED screens. This causes them to end up renting LED screens that are too small or too large for the installation space and the number of expected attendees. This mistake can affect both the rental budget and the visual experience offered.
This mistake can be solved by informing the distance from the audience, the supplier will advise you on the ideal size for your LED screen. Normally, the further away the audience is, the larger the screen size should be and the higher the pixel pitch can be, without losing image quality.
Forgetting multimedia content
Brands often choose the right LED screen rental for their event. However, they forget to optimise the multimedia content that will appear on the screen. This can lead to poor image quality.
To avoid this, when renting an LED screen, you should create content thinking about the dimensions of the LED screen or correctly adapt content that has already been created. If you do not know how to do this, ask the LED screen supplier for advice. You can also ask them to check before the event if the content created is suitable for the rented LED screen.
Not confirming technical requirements
LED screens require power, structure for mounting, permits depending on the place of installation… These technical requirements are often not considered, this fact can cause that the LED screen cannot be mounted if the structure for mounting is not adequate or that it cannot be switched on if it does not have the necessary electrical power.
These mistakes can be easily solved by asking the supplier about the technical requirements for the installation of the LED screens. And take these requirements into account when creating the space for installation and contracting the appropriate electrical power.
Choosing on price alone
Finally, one of the most common mistakes when renting an LED screen is to choose only by the price of the rental. In many cases, choosing the cheapest may seem like the right option. However, this low price may be due to the fact that the rented material is of low quality, has technical faults or does not offer adequate support.
To avoid this mistake, you should find out what each LED screen supplier offers and the quality of the budgeted screen. And with the correct information you can choose the supplier that best suits your needs. Also, you can look for information about their experience, the equipment and the technical support they offer.
In conclusion, renting a LED screen or LED screens will transform the visual experience of your event, but to achieve your goals you will need to plan your rental well and avoid the most common mistakes.
