Indoor digital signage for malls, lobbies and corridors
Information and advertising displays for shopping malls, hotel corridors, office lobbies and campus halls. Wall, floor and ceiling mounts from 10.1″ to 98″, built as hardware on our lines — your CMS, content and installation remain yours.
Product catalogue: Indoor Signage. Private housings and branding: Custom / OEM & ODM.
Typical indoor deployments
| Shopping malls | Directory totems, promotional portrait boards and stretched bars along rails. Continuous duty under retail lighting; touch optional for directories. |
| Hotel and office lobbies | Wayfinding, event boards and brand loops. Floor-standing units that rotate between portrait and landscape when the property wants one SKU for both roles. |
| Hotel corridors and floors | Slim wall mounts and bar displays for room status, promotions and emergency messaging. Low depth so they clear ADA / egress clearances. |
| Campus and corporate halls | Menu of sizes from small door displays to 65″–98″ feature walls. Android boards for media loops; Windows where an existing desktop app must run on the panel. |
| Meeting and showroom walls | Larger interactive or non-touch panels; trolley stands when the room layout changes. Related interactive teaching panels are covered under Education. |
Size and mount selection (10.1″–98″)
Pick size from viewing distance and content type, then pick the mount from the architecture — not the other way round. A 32″ portrait totem at three metres reads poorly for a mall directory; a 10″ door plate does not need 4K.
| 10.1″–21.5″ | Door plates, queue tickets, shelf and counter faces. Wall flush or small pedestal. |
| 32″–55″ | Corridor and lobby workhorses — wall, floor totem or ceiling pendant. Most indoor programmes live here. |
| 65″–98″ | Feature walls, atrium directories and large promotional canvases. Confirm lift and doorway clearances before locking the size. |
| Wall mount | Default for corridors and most lobbies. VESA or custom bracket; portrait or landscape. |
| Floor / freestanding | Totems and rotatable touch units where wall structure is weak or the unit must move. |
| Ceiling / pendant | Atriums and double-height halls; cable and safety retention specified with the enclosure. |
| Touch vs non-touch | Projected capacitive for directories and wayfinding; non-touch for pure advertising loops. Touch technology choice matters for gloves and wet fingers — say so early. |
Content duty and continuous operation
Mall directories and hotel event boards often run 16–24 hours a day. That is ordinary signage duty for our indoor range — commercial panels and Android/Windows boards chosen for long on-time, not consumer TVs pressed into service. If the content is a simple media loop, an Android board is usually enough; if you must run a full Windows application or drive unusual USB devices from the panel, say so and we quote the Intel line instead.
Brightness for indoor work is modest compared with outdoor programmes, but atrium skylights and shopfront glass can still wash out a low-brightness panel. When the install faces strong daylight, we either raise the indoor brightness tier or, if the sun load is effectively outdoor, move the quote to the outdoor enclosure line. An indoor chassis cannot be upgraded into a weatherized, high-sun product later.
Distributor programmes often standardise on two or three diagonals and one mount family so spare panels and brackets stay interchangeable across properties. We can private-label that set — same electronics, your bezel colour and packaging — and ship mixed sizes on one purchase order when the roll-out schedule needs it.
Boundary vs elevator and outdoor
Indoor signage assumes climate-controlled space, normal ambient light and no weather load. Two neighbouring lines look similar on a floor plan but are not interchangeable:
| Elevator / lift-car displays | Continuous duty in a confined, vibrating enclosure with different EMC and depth limits. Use the Elevator & building application page — do not quote a standard indoor totem into a lift car. |
| Outdoor signage | High brightness, IP-rated enclosure and a thermal design (heat exchanger or air-conditioned) sized for sun load. Semi-outdoor lobbies with heavy west-facing glass may still need an outdoor package — see Outdoor signage. |
| Self-service kiosks | When the unit must take payments, print tickets or scan IDs, you are in kiosk territory, not pure signage. Cross-link: Self-service. |
Getting the boundary right saves a redesign later. A lobby directory under a glass canopy may still need outdoor brightness; a corridor screen next to a lift lobby is still indoor signage, not an elevator car display. When in doubt, send a photo of the install point with the enquiry — facing and ambient are usually obvious from the image.
Multi-site roll-outs benefit from a short approved SKU list: two diagonals, one wall bracket family, one totem, optional touch. We can lock that list under your brand so reorders and replacements stay interchangeable years later.
Ceiling and pendant mounts need safety retention and cable routing called out on the drawing; we build the enclosure to match, but the structural attachment to the building remains the installer’s scope.
OEM boundary and what to specify
We manufacture and ship the display and mount hardware. CMS, content scheduling, network and installation are yours. For a quote: screen sizes and quantities, touch yes/no, mount type, portrait/landscape (or rotatable), Android vs Windows if an app must run on-panel, destination country, and brand requirements. Format tables and brightness options: Indoor Signage.
What we change under OEM
- Screen size, orientation and mount against your installation drawing
- Touch yes/no and touch technology for gloves or wet environments
- Board choice — Android for media loops, Intel/Windows where an application must run on-panel
- Housing colour, finish, boot logo and packaging under your brand
- Mains plug and documentation pack for the destination market
CMS, creative and on-site work stay with you. Format tables and brightness options remain on the indoor product page; enclosure drawings that leave the catalogue run through Custom / OEM & ODM.
