Questions we’re asked most

Answered plainly

Do you work with universities outside Scotland?

Yes โ€” design and procurement are handled centrally, with installation delivered by our engineers in Scotland or a vetted local partner, UK-wide.

Can signage be managed separately by department or campus?

Yes โ€” content management permissions can be set by building, department or content type, so central comms and individual faculties can each manage their own screens.

Do you support lecture capture integration?

Our lecture theatre AV designs are specified to integrate with common lecture capture platforms; we’ll confirm compatibility with your existing system during design.

A closer look

Built for scale, not a single lecture theatre

The difference between a single-building install and a campus estate is mostly about scale and control: dozens or hundreds of screens across multiple buildings, content permissions that need to reflect how a university is actually organised (central comms, individual faculties, students’ union, halls of residence), and procurement that has to work for both a single-room refresh and a multi-campus rollout.

Lecture theatre AV is specified to work with whatever lecture capture platform your institution already runs, rather than requiring a change of system — compatibility gets confirmed as part of the design stage, not discovered on install day.

Can content permissions be split by faculty or building?

Yes โ€” permissions can be set by building, department or content type, so central comms and individual faculties can each manage their own screens without stepping on each other.

Do you handle both single-room refreshes and multi-campus rollouts?

Yes โ€” the same design and procurement process scales either way, from a single lecture theatre to a full multi-campus signage network.

More about universities and colleges

Do you provide AV for administrative and student services buildings, not just teaching spaces?

Yes. The same estate wide approach used for lecture theatres and signage extends to administrative buildings, student services and halls of residence, so an institution isn’t managing one supplier for teaching spaces and a different one for everywhere else.

Can student wayfinding signage be updated for different terms or events without redesigning the whole network?

Yes. Wayfinding content is managed through the same content management dashboard as the rest of the estate, so updates for a new term, an open day or a one off event are pushed centrally rather than requiring a redesign of the signage network itself.

Can lecture theatre AV be rolled out incrementally, theatre by theatre, rather than as one large project?

Yes. A phased rollout is common where budget or timetabling makes a single all at once project impractical, with each theatre brought up to the same specification in turn rather than the estate ending up with a mismatch of old and new equipment along the way.
