In the field of outdoor advertising, LED displays, with their high brightness, high protection, and high refresh rate, have become a popular medium for advertising and information dissemination. Furthermore, LED displays have different installation methods depending on the installation environment. The main installation methods for outdoor advertising LED displays include floor-standing, embedded, column-mounted, and rooftop.
Among them, pillar installation is divided into single pillar, double pillar and multi-pillar. And pillar-mounted LED screens are widely used in squares, parks, scenic spots, highways and other scenes due to their wide field of view and strong adaptability.
Pillar LED display design
As the name suggests, a pillar-mounted LED screen is mounted on one or more specially designed pillars. A single-pillar setup has only one support column, while a double-pillar setup has two side-by-side support columns, allowing for a more stable or wider display installation. In addition, outdoor pillar installation of LED screens has very high requirements on the materials used and geological conditions, and data such as compression resistance, pull-out resistance, and bending resistance must be calculated. Typically use steel tubular structures, structural steel, or concrete to construct pillar-mounted LED screens.


Features of outdoor pillar LED screen
1. Display performance
- Strong visual impact. On the hand, outdoor pillar screens typically range from dozens to hundreds of square meters in size. Standing tall in open areas, they are highly visible, drawing in crowds and making them impossible to ignore. On the other hand, they attract passersby by playing high-definition videos, animations, graphics, and other content.
- High resolution and high brightness. Outdoor LED screens must remain clearly visible even in strong sunlight. Ningshine’s outdoor LED screens support brightness levels of 5,500 to 10,000 nits, ensuring clear visibility even in direct midday sunlight. Furthermore, with pixel pitches ranging from P2.5 to P10, they provide clear images even at close range.
- Wide field of view. Because pillars are typically tall, LED screens mounted on them offer a wider viewing angle, allowing for clear viewing from greater distances. Furthermore, we typically install these pillar led displays in high-traffic and pedestrian-heavy areas such as highways, urban arterials, and plazas, offering a wide coverage area.
2. Protective performance
- High protection. High protection is crucial for stable outdoor operation. Firstly, with an IP65 protection rating or higher, the display is completely dustproof and waterproof. Secondly, Ningshine’s HO and HD series exceed IP66 protection, effectively protecting against inclement weather. Finally, rigorous shock and testing ensure that the display can maintain long-term stable operation in extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain, dust, and high temperatures.
- High heat dissipation. LED displays are made of various materials depending on the application. First, NingshineLED screens utilize high-strength cabinet structures, such as die-cast aluminum, profile aluminum, and iron cabinets. The die-cast aluminum cabinet is a one-piece structure with high thermal conductivity, and the cooling fins accelerate heat dissipation. Its lightweight design facilitates high-altitude pillar installation. Second, the profile aluminum cabinet balances portability and heat dissipation. Finally, the iron cabinet utilizes a powerful cooling fan for excellent heat dissipation. Thus, the efficient performance of several materials ensures stable operation of the LED screen in temperatures ranging from -30°C to 60°C.
3. Control system
- Intelligent remote control. The LED screen supports remote control and real-time content updates via 4G/5G/WiFi. And this allows for quick, anytime, anywhere updates without the need for on-site personnel. Furthermore, the screen’s operating status, including temperature, power supply, and faults, we can remotely monitor the system to detect and resolve issues in a timely manner.
In short, outdoor pillar LED display, with their ingenious design and unique features, offer strong visual impact and wide coverage. Technically, they are bright, highly protected, stable and durable. Content-wise, they are flexible, diverse, instant and efficient. Structurally, they are sturdy, secure, windproof and lightning-resistant.
