A freestanding outdoor LED kiosk in Dundee city centre — built and tested in our own warehouse, craned into position on site, and running live content the same day, with no return visit needed to finish the job.
An outdoor advertising kiosk in a busy city centre location has to cope with everything a normal indoor screen never has to think about: direct sun washing out the picture, rain and temperature swings, and a structure solid enough to stand unattended in a public space. It also has to go up with minimal disruption — city centre sites don’t give you a week of scaffolding and road closures to play with.
Rather than build the kiosk in place, we assembled and fully tested it in our own warehouse first — the enclosure, the LED module, the internal media player and the network connection all built and proven as a single unit before it ever left our yard. That turns a city centre install from a multi-day on-site build into a single lift-and-connect operation: the finished kiosk arrived on a low-loader, was craned directly into its prepared footing, and was live and displaying content the same day.
A sealed outdoor-rated enclosure and high-brightness LED module built to run in direct sunlight and stay legible, in a Scottish climate that doesn’t make it easy.
Assembled, wired and proven in our warehouse before delivery, so what arrives on site is a finished unit, not a kit to be built in the road.
Lifted into its prepared footing and connected on site — no lengthy scaffolding phase, no return visit needed to finish the job.
One crane lift and connection, rather than days of on-site construction in a busy public space.
High-brightness LED holds up against direct sun, and stays clean and readable after dark too.
Content was running on the kiosk before the crew left site — no gap between install and go-live.
Not if the unit is built and tested off-site first. Pre-assembling the kiosk in our own warehouse means the on-site work is a single crane lift and connection, rather than a multi-day construction job in a public space.
Yes, with the right brightness spec for the location — a screen sized for indoor use will wash out outdoors. We spec the LED module to the site’s actual light conditions, not a generic figure.
A content management system lets the site manage what plays and when, without needing us involved for routine content changes — see our Lanark Memorial Centre case study for how that works in practice across multiple screens.

Building and testing the kiosk as a complete unit before it left the warehouse meant every fault that could have shown up on site, a loose connection, a module not quite seated properly, a network issue, was already found and fixed before the crane arrived. What’s left to do on site is physical, lift it into the footing, connect power and network, and confirm it’s displaying. That’s the difference between a job measured in hours and one measured in days, in a location where a lengthy build isn’t really an option.
