Frequently Asked Questions
How do I update an LED sign?
From software on a computer or phone. You can schedule messages ahead or change them on the spot.
What is pixel pitch and which do I need?
Pixel pitch is the space between the LEDs. Closer viewing needs a tighter pitch, while a highway display can use a wider one. We match the pitch to your viewing distance.
Are LED signs allowed in Houston?
Many areas allow them with rules on brightness and how often the message changes. We design to the local code and handle the permit.
Can I add an LED display to my existing sign?
Often yes. We can retrofit a display into many existing pylon and monument structures.
