What is the Cost of an LED School Sign?

There was a time when educational institutions only needed a single, static sign to convey their messages. But times have changed. Now, with advancements in technology and the demands of a tech-savvy generation, the old ways no longer suffice. This is where LED electronic signs, or as many call them, digital signs, enter the scene.

Digital LED signage, commonly referred to as LED school signs, has become a staple in modern educational settings. These signs, with their vibrant displays and programmable features, are transforming how schools engage with students, staff, and the community.

How Much Do LED School Signs Cost?

Our outdoor LED school signs start at $3,850 for a single-sided dimension of 20"x52". Factors influencing this rate include the sign's size, its resolution, and whether it's a single or double-sided model. Beyond the base price, additional variables can modify the final cost, such as installation.

Factors Influencing the Price of LED School Signs

Understanding the price of LED school signs is akin to entering a computer store and inquiring about the cost of a laptop. The price range is vast and depends on various factors, much like how the specs and brand of a laptop would dictate its cost.

Single/Double-sided

LED school signs can be either single-sided or double-sided. A double-sided sign is ideal if visibility from multiple directions is a requirement. Naturally, this dual feature can add to the cost.

Pitch

The pitch relates to the number of LED bulbs per square meter. A higher bulb count leads to better screen resolution but also increases the price. When considering the pitch, think about:

• The distance from which viewers will see the sign.

• The volume of content relative to the screen size.

• The desired sharpness of the content.

Signage Size

Size matters. A larger sign with a wider display area will invariably cost more. The housing or framework of the sign also plays a role in determining the cost. For instance, signs installed on a post-and-panel system might be cheaper than those on a monument-style encasement.

The Game-Changing Benefits of LED School Signs

LED signs aren't just about flashy lights; they bring tangible benefits to the table, especially for schools.

Cost-Effectiveness

Traditional paper communication methods are becoming obsolete. LED signs, which can display any media file including videos and images, eliminate the need for paper, printing, and distribution costs, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run.

Real-Time Communication

In dynamic educational environments, information is ever-evolving. Traditional static signs can't keep pace. However, LED signs, which are fully programmable, ensure that the latest updates are always on display.

Engaging the Digital Generation

Today's students are digital natives. For them, LED displays are not just signs but essential communication tools that resonate with their tech-savvy nature.
