How much does a video wall cost?

A video wall typically costs between £6,000 and £100,000 or more in the UK, and the technology you choose is the biggest single driver. A tiled LCD video wall usually lands at £6,000 to £35,000, while a seamless dvLED (direct-view LED) wall starts around £20,000 and can pass £100,000 on larger or fine-pitch installations. Size, pixel pitch, video processing and structural work move the figure within those bands.

From the floor. The number people miss on a video wall is everything behind the glass. The panels or modules are maybe half the job; the video processor, the mounting structure, power, cabling, content management and commissioning make up the rest, and on a dvLED wall the structural and electrical work can rival the display cost. Get a fixed price that names those lines, because that is where a cheap-looking quote quietly leaves them out. — Mark Brooks, Commercial Director

An LCD video wall tiles commercial-grade panels (typically 46 or 55 inch) with thin bezels. A 2x2 wall for a meeting room or reception sits around £6,000 to £15,000 installed; a 3x3 control-room or lobby wall runs £15,000 to £35,000 once processing and mounting are included. dvLED uses a bezel-free array of LED modules priced largely by pixel pitch and size, so a finer pitch (sharper, closer viewing) costs more per square metre. A reception or boardroom video wall commonly lands between £20,000 and £60,000, and large or high-brightness feature walls go well beyond that.

Beyond the display itself, the swing factors are the video processor (resolution, number of sources, windowing), the mounting and any structural or electrical work, and the content and control system that drives it day to day. A supplier that site-surveys before quoting will price the structure, processing and commissioning properly rather than quoting the panels alone, and will factor warranty and spares into the lifecycle cost.

Quick reference: LCD video wall £6k-£35k; dvLED wall £20k-£100k+; pixel pitch, size and processing drive the price.
