LED displays
An LED screen is a large modular display in which every pixel is a self-emitting light-emitting diode, allowing the screen to be built in any size or shape and bright enough for both indoor and outdoor use. Lumepix OÜ designs and installs LED screens for businesses, retail spaces, real estate developments and conference rooms throughout Estonia and the Baltic states. We provide complete solutions covering technical design, installation and ongoing support. We do not sell LED screens at retail or offer off-the-shelf solutions – every project is planned around the specific space, its intended use and long-term reliability requirements.

What shapes the budget of an LED screen project?
The price of an LED screen is not just the cost of the modules per square metre. In a system integration project, the budget consists of seven parts, and these are what determine whether the screen performs reliably for years.
Screen and pixel pitch
Pixel pitch, LED technology (SMD, GOB or COB) and brightness determine how many LEDs go into each square metre. A finer pixel pitch gives a sharper image at close range, but it means more LEDs and a higher price. An outdoor screen also needs higher brightness and a weatherproof enclosure.
Support structure and mounting
Wall mount, frame, facade structure or mast. The structure must take into account the weight of the screen, wind load, and whether the modules are accessed from the front or the rear.
Power supply and cabling
Power supply, circuit breakers and data cables to the controller. A larger screen also requires an electrical design.
Control system
Sending and receiving cards, video processor and media player. The control system determines which inputs the screen uses and how it switches between them.
Content management
Cloud-based content management software, such as OptiSign or BrightSign, or a direct connection from a computer. Content can be scheduled and changed remotely without going to the screen.
Installation and calibration
Assembly, colour and brightness calibration, testing and user training. Calibration ensures that all modules display a uniform image.
Warranty, spare parts and maintenance
Spare modules from the same production batch, warranty terms and a maintenance agreement. These determine how quickly the screen is back up and running in the event of a fault.
To prepare a quote, all we need at first is the desired screen dimensions, the location and the intended use. We usually send the quote on the same day. For larger and more complex installations, it can take up to 3–4 working days, and we always let you know when the quote will be ready.
You can get an initial estimate of the right size and pixel pitch with our calculators. We explain the factors that affect the price in more detail in the article what affects the price of an LED screen.
LED screen from an online shop or from a system integrator?
Estonian online shops sell LED modules and cabinets at a price per unit or per square metre. This works if you have your own technician who can assemble the screen, design the structure, configure the control system and calibrate the image.
If the screen needs to work reliably every day in a commercial space, on a facade or in a conference hall, you are really buying a system, not a screen. A system integrator is responsible for the entire chain:
- choosing the pixel pitch, brightness and manufacturer based on viewing distance and use case
- support structure, power supply and cabling
- control system and content management, so content can be changed remotely
- installation, calibration and user training
- maintenance, spare modules from the same production batch and a single point of contact in the event of a fault
Lumepix is a multi-brand integrator. We choose the manufacturer, such as Samsung, LG, Ledman, Fabulux or Hikvision, based on your use case and budget, not on a single brand’s product range.
How an LED screen project works
Needs assessment
We identify the screen location, desired dimensions, viewing distance and content. If needed, we visit the site to assess the installation location and existing infrastructure.
Solution and quote
We select the pixel pitch, manufacturer, structure, power supply and control system. We usually send the quote on the same day, or within 3–4 working days for more complex projects.
Delivery
We keep the most popular models in stock. Custom solutions and larger quantities are ordered directly from the manufacturer.
Installation and calibration
We install the structure and the screen, make the electrical and data connections, calibrate the image and train the users.
Content management and maintenance
We set up content management and offer SLA-based maintenance. The service response time is usually 48 hours, and the exact terms are agreed in the contract.
Timeline: with models in stock, an LED screen can be installed in as little as 2–3 weeks. If the project requires a support structure, electrical work, permits or a custom solution ordered from the manufacturer, the whole project can take up to 4 months.
LED Display Technical Specifications:
- Automatic brightness adjustment saves 20–40% on energy and extends lifespan
- Excessive brightness indoors causes eye strain — the wrong choice is just as harmful as too dim
- Brightness and energy consumption are directly linked — higher brightness means higher consumption
- Brightness level is the biggest factor — outdoor screens require many times more power than indoor screens
- Displayed Content — dark content consumes up to 50–70% less energy than a full white image
- Modern Power Supplies (92–96% efficiency) and automatic brightness adjustment significantly reduce ongoing costs
- Pixel Pitch and LED Density — a smaller pitch means more LEDs and higher consumption per square meter
| Pixel pich | Minimum Viewing Distance | Suitable For |
|---|---|---|
| P0.4–P1.5 | 0.5–2 m | Control rooms, conference halls, broadcast studios |
| P1.5–P2.5 | 2–4 m | Offices, meeting rooms, lobby information screens |
| P3–P6 | 4–10 m | Shopping centers, events, larger lobbies |
| P8–P16 | 10–30 m+ | Facade, Outdoor Advertising, Stadium |
- Too fine a pixel pitch for a large viewing distance is an unnecessary expense — the image looks equally good either way
- Pixel pitch has a direct effect on price — a P1.5 screen is significantly more expensive than a P3 screen of the same surface area
- The right choice depends on the location, room dimensions, and budget
- Viewing angle is affected by the LED diode type and the protective solution used (lens, GOB coating)
- LCD screens typically have a horizontal viewing angle of 178°, but the drop in brightness when viewed from the side is greater
- In stadiums and public spaces, a wide viewing angle is critically important — every viewer needs to see the same image
- Higher brightness shortens lifespan — operating at 100% brightness can cut lifespan in half
- Cooling is critical — high operating temperature is the leading cause of premature wear in LED modules
- The modular design allows individual LED modules to be replaced without replacing the entire screen
- Regular maintenance (dust removal, connection checks) significantly extends lifespan
| IP-class | Protection | Suitable For |
|---|---|---|
| IP20 | Finger-touch protected, no water protection | Dry indoor spaces, offices, retail |
| IP54 | Dust-tight, splash-resistant | Production facilities, semi-open spaces |
| IP65 | Dust-tight, water-jet resistant | Outdoor conditions, facades, semi-outdoor |
| IP67 | Dust-tight, temporary immersion | Outdoor advertising, damp environments |
| IP68 | Dust-tight, temporary immersion | Outdoor conditions, stadiums, beaches |
- For Estonia's climate, we recommend at least IP65 for outdoor screens — rain, snow, and moisture are everyday conditions
- GOB (Glue on Board) coating adds physical protection to indoor screens without changing the IP rating
- A higher IP rating means a better-protected housing, which affects both price and thermal management

Frequently asked questions about LED screens
The price depends on the screen area, pixel pitch, LED technology, indoor or outdoor use, support structure, control system, content management and the complexity of the installation. As every project is different, we prepare the quote based on your dimensions, location and intended use. We usually send the quote on the same day, or within 3–4 working days for more complex projects.
Start from the closest viewing distance. As a rule of thumb, the pixel pitch in millimetres should not be greater than the closest viewing distance in metres; for example, 2.5 mm is suitable from about 2.5 metres. In a meeting room where small text is read, 1.2–1.8 mm is usually chosen, and for a roadside outdoor screen 6–10 mm. You can get an initial estimate with our calculator.
Manufacturers typically rate LED lifespan at around 100,000 hours, after which brightness has dropped to half. In practice, commercial screens are used for 7–10 years or longer. The modules are replaceable, so in the event of a single fault, only the faulty module is replaced, not the entire screen.
An outdoor LED screen must be readable in direct sunlight, so its brightness is usually over 5,000 nits and its enclosure has at least an IP65 protection rating. An indoor LED screen’s brightness is usually below 1,500 nits, and it has a finer pixel pitch and a thinner profile because it is viewed from closer up.
We keep the most popular models in stock, and with these a screen can be installed in as little as 2–3 weeks. If the project requires a support structure, electrical work, permits or a custom solution ordered from the manufacturer, the whole project can take up to 4 months.
An LED screen has no seams between panels, can be built in any size and shape, and is brighter. An LCD video wall is often more affordable for smaller areas and gives a sharper image when viewed very close up. For a large area and a seamless image, LED is usually the better choice.
Yes. We offer SLA-based maintenance, with a response time of usually within 48 hours. The exact terms depend on the contract, the size of the screen fleet and how business-critical the screen is. Get in touch and we will send the maintenance terms together with the quote.
In most cases, yes. Installing an outdoor screen or advertising structure usually requires a permit from the local municipality, and the requirements vary between municipalities. We help prepare the necessary drawings and technical data.
