Our walls are built in Győr and mounted by our own fitters, so a Radovljica job is planned around 432 road kilometres instead of around a phone call. The work splits into a survey trip that records the opening, the substrate, the electrical supply and how close a van can park, and a fitting trip with a preparation day and an overnight stay for the crew. Below are the decisions we need from you, set out in the order in which they start to constrain everything else.
LED wall in Radovljica — manufacturing, installation, quote
Slovenia · 432 km from our plant in Győr
Radovljica is really two towns sharing one gravel terrace. Above the meeting of the Sava Bohinjka and the Sava Dolinka sits an intact medieval core around Linhartov trg, a protected ensemble where the honest answer to most display enquiries is that nothing should be fastened to those facades at all. Beside and below it runs the working town: Kranjska cesta with its shops and schools, Gorenjska cesta with the municipal offices and the secondary school, and the belt of workshops reaching towards Lesce. Almost every permanent screen this municipality will ever need belongs in the second half, and this page looks at the place strictly as an installation site rather than as a destination.
Which frontages in Radovljica can carry a screen at all?
Why the old square is usually the wrong answer
The houses along Linhartov trg are sixteenth and seventeenth century burgher buildings; Šivčeva hiša at number 22 is a listed example that now works as a gallery, and Radovljica Manor closes the northern side with the Museum of Apiculture inside it. A luminous rectangle bolted to any of those elevations would be refused, and we would tell you so before you paid for a drawing. That is not a limitation of the product, it is a reading of the street. Inside those same buildings the question changes completely. A screen standing in an exhibition room or a lecture space raises no facade issue whatsoever, because nothing is visible from outside. For commercial visibility the useful addresses are the modern ones: the retail run along Kranjska cesta, the offices and school frontages on Gorenjska cesta, and the light-industrial units on the Lesce road, where a wall can be sized for the sightline rather than for the planning file.
How does an opening in centimetres become a module count?
Thirty-two across, sixteen up, and nothing rounded
Each module is a landscape tile of 32 by 16 centimetres, and it cannot be cut. A wall therefore grows in 32 centimetre steps horizontally and 16 centimetre steps vertically, which means the finished rectangle is chosen from a list rather than typed in freely. A shop unit on Kranjska cesta with a 370 centimetre clear opening does not receive a 370 centimetre screen; it receives eleven columns, 352 centimetres wide, and the remaining 18 centimetres disappear into the frame and the reveal. We ask for the clear opening in centimetres before quoting, along with a photograph that shows what sits above and below it. Where the architecture leaves an awkward remainder, the surplus is absorbed by trim, never by trimming panels. Meeting this constraint on paper costs nothing; meeting it on a ladder in Radovljica costs a second trip.
What pixel pitch does your nearest regular viewer justify?
Reading distance sets the figure, not the budget
Pitch is decided by the closest person who looks at the screen regularly, not by the furthest. Where visitors stand within two metres of the surface, as they would at a reception counter or in a museum-style interior, P1.5 to P2.5 is the band that holds up. A foyer, a showroom or a hall where the usual viewing range is five to ten metres sits comfortably at P2.5 to P4. Anything read across a car park, or from the carriageway of Gorenjska cesta by someone driving past, belongs at P4 to P8. Buying finer than the sightline demands simply raises the pixel count and the invoice with no visible gain. Buying coarser is obvious the day it is switched on and cannot be repaired afterwards, so we settle this with a tape measure on the survey visit rather than with an assumption.
How bright should it be, and which way is it facing?
700 to 800 nits inside, IP65 and 4500 to 5500 nits outside
Interior cabinets are specified at 700 to 800 nits. That is deliberately modest: in a closed room a brighter panel is tiring to look at, consumes more, and shortens the life of the diodes for no benefit. Exterior builds are a different product, rated IP65 and running at 4500 to 5500 nits, because they compete with direct sunlight for most of the working day. On this terrace there is a local complication worth naming. Snow cover on the Gorenjska basin lifts ambient light sharply on clear winter mornings, and a north-facing frontage that seemed dim in an October photograph can be washed out in January. We ask which way the screen looks, how much glazing surrounds it, and whether a canopy shades it, before the class is fixed - an indoor panel mounted under an eave is the single most common expensive mistake.
Why does a rolling LED poster win at 432 kilometres?
640 by 1920 millimetres on a 201 centimetre frame, 45 kilograms, no scaffold
The LED poster is a free-standing digital placard on a wheeled base. Its image area measures 640 by 1920 millimetres, the frame stands 201 centimetres tall, and the complete unit weighs 45 kilograms - two people take it off a tail lift and one person wheels it to where it will live. Nothing touches the building, so there is no scaffold, no access platform, no structural opinion and no making good afterwards. That is exactly where the 432 kilometres stops mattering. A mounted wall in this town means a survey visit, then a fitting trip with a preparation day and a night in a hotel for the crew, and a diary that has to line up across two countries. A poster is loaded onto a pallet, delivered, pushed into position and plugged into an ordinary socket, and it is earning within the same week the order is placed. For a pharmacy window on Kranjska cesta, an estate agent's frontage, or a hotel reception in Lesce that currently reprints a laminated A1 sheet every fortnight, it replaces the print bill rather than the building.
What comes with the shipment, and what do we not promise?
Cover period, reserve tiles, and the papers for a conservation file
Cover runs for either one or two years, and which of the two applies is written into the contract before any panel is cut, so it is never a surprise at handover. Spare modules travel inside the crate as a matter of course, which means a single dead tile can be swapped by your own caretaker in an afternoon instead of waiting for a van to cross two borders. On the official side we are deliberately narrow. Facade displays in Slovenia are governed by rules, and those rules are read most strictly inside the protected core. We take no part in the procedure and make no claim at all about how it will end. What we do supply is the technical annex the submission asks for: overall dimensions, mass, the fixing pattern and its loads, power draw and the luminance figures.
