​​Why are the screens in the lobbies of five-star hotels always so clear and non-glaring? ​ ​
This matter has to start from the source of procurement. Last year’s industry report showed that​ ​Hotels that choose the wrong display screen will spend an average of 36,000 more maintenance fees every year.​ ​. Today we will talk about this knowledge and teach you how to use three tricks to lock in reliable supply sources and ensure that your hotel screens are both high-end and worry-free.

​​The first step: first find out the "temper" of your hotel"​​

Buying a screen is not like going to the supermarket. You must first understand the situation of your own venue. Remember these three golden rules:

1. ​​Lobby ceiling screen​​：

   • The brightness must not exceed 1200cd/m², otherwise guests will have to cover their eyes when looking up at the room rate.
   • Choose one with smart dimming function, which automatically dims in the morning and brightens in the evening.

2. ​​Banquet hall home screen​​：

   • The refresh rate must be ≥1920Hz so that there will be no smear when shooting wedding videos.
   • The box should have a quick-release structure, so it can be dismantled in 10 minutes after the banquet.

3. ​​Outdoor guidance screen​​：

   • The waterproof level is at least IP65, and parking space information can be clearly displayed even in heavy rain.
   • The surface needs to be treated with anti-glare treatment so that it does not reflect light under the bright sun.

Real case: A resort hotel installed an ordinary screen beside the swimming pool, but stains appeared within three months. The problem was solved after changing to a model with an anti-corrosion coating.

​​The second move: Competition in procurement channels​​

The market is a mixed bag, and each of these channels has its pros and cons:

​​Online platform​​

• ​​Industry Mall​ ​: Suitable for buying standard size products, like the P3-P4 pitch conventional screen mentioned on the website
• ​​Customized website​ ​: For curved screens and special-shaped screens, you must find a merchant that supports drawing customization. The construction period is generally 15-20 days.

​​Offline channels​​

• ​​electronic market​ ​: Guangzhou Tao Street and Shenzhen Huaqiang North are suitable for price comparison. Remember to bring a ruler to measure the thickness on site.
• ​​Industry exhibition​ ​: You can see the anti-collision test with your own eyes. Last year at the Guangya Exhibition, a manufacturer demonstrated on the spot a truck rolling over a box body.

​​relationship network​​

• Join the Hotel Purchasing Alliance, and you can save 8%-15% by group bargaining.
• Pay attention to the second-hand screens returned by the equipment rental company, which are very cost-effective (but you have to bring a master to inspect the goods)

​​The third trick: Inspect goods and avoid pitfalls with three axes​​

Be sure to complete these three steps before paying:

1. ​​Brightness test​​
   Let the manufacturer adjust the pure white screen and take a photo with your mobile phone - if ripples and stripes appear, pass immediately

2. ​​Thermal check​​
   After starting up and running at full load for 2 hours, touch the box temperature:

   • Indoor screen ≤45℃ qualified
   • Outdoor screen ≤60℃ meets the standard

3. ​​Contract details​​

   • Specify that it includes 3 free on-site calibrations
   • If the marked module is damaged, it will be replaced free of charge within 5% of the damage.
   • Requesting a brightness attenuation curve chart

​​Maintenance knowledge​​

Don’t think that it’s all done once you install it. These details can extend the life by 3 years:

• Use an electrostatic brush to clean module gaps once a month
• Calibrate color quarterly with grayscale test chart
• During the rainy season, the machine is turned on for 2 hours every day to dehumidify and prevent moisture.

Data speaks: For screens that are maintained as required, the five-year failure rate can be controlled within 12%, which is 53% lower than that of carelessly maintained screens.

​​personal opinion​​
Now some hotels are starting to play new tricks, such as installing interactive floor tile screens in restaurants, which can display menu animations when guests step on them. Let me tell you, innovation can be done, but the basic display effect must be solid first. After all, clear and stable information display is what customers need. The next time you see a hotel where the screens are always out of order, 80% of the time it’s because you didn’t do your homework when purchasing – do you think this is true?
