LED Solutions

Custom and bespoke LED solutions are Dynamo’s flagship work. When standard rectangular video walls don’t fit the brief — double-sided ribbons, curved shopfronts, drive-on LED floors, transparent retail windows, snowflake-shaped installations, hot-air-balloon LED canopies — the engineering happens here. Dynamo designs, manufactures and installs bespoke LED video walls, custom-shape LED displays, and architectural LED integrations across the UK and internationally, working directly with architects, brand teams and construction project managers from concept through commissioning.

Flagship bespoke installations

These are the projects that define what Dynamo means by “custom”:

• Dubai Airport arrivals hall — large-format LED welcome installation in one of the world’s busiest international terminals.
• Oman — Muscat Mall — flagship retail-experience LED across the mall’s premium retail zone.
• 40 Leadenhall, London — 4 custom recessed LED arches built flush into the foyer walls, coordinated with the building architects from day one rather than bolted on. Architectural LED integration done right.
• Gatwick and Heathrow airports — entire LED shopfront installations transforming concourse retail into immersive brand environments.
• AutoTrader custom LED snowflakes — bending-both-ways flexible LED ribbons that move with the campaign creative.
• Hot-air balloon LED canopies — lightweight, flexible LED installations literally flying overhead.
• Warner Music Group — 10 custom LED triangles — geometric LED panels for the music label’s London offices.
• Copenhagen, Denmark — international custom-LED install delivered end-to-end from UK.
• Alpha FX trading floor — custom LED ticker — financial-data ticker tailored to the trading-floor environment.
• Luxury residential London — bespoke LED in private residential settings.
• Liverpool Football Club — stadium installations integrating brand, broadcast and crowd-engagement displays.

What we mean by “custom” LED

Custom LED at Dynamo is not “we’ll cut a stock panel to size”. It is full-stack engineering from CAD layout through commissioning:

• Custom-shape LED displays — triangles, snowflakes, ribbons, curves, double-sided fins, drive-on floors, irregular polygons. We design the cabinet topology from scratch around the architectural brief.
• Curved LED video walls — concave (immersive room), convex (column-wrap), helical (staircase) and dome geometries. Adjustable cabinet angle hardware down to 1° increments.
• Double-sided LED displays — thin-profile dual-facing modules for shopfronts and free-standing fins that look right from both sides.
• Transparent LED for retail windows — see-through LED film maintaining the storefront sightline. See our dedicated transparent LED film range.
• LED floors and interactive surfaces — walk-on LED with capacitive touch sensors. See LED screen floor.
• Architectural LED ribbons and strips — flexible LED that follows curves and edges. See LED video strips.
• Outdoor flagship installations — IP65-rated outdoor LED walls for shopfronts, airports, stadium concourses, hospitality venues.

Specifications — what’s possible with custom LED

• Pixel pitch range: P0.9 fine-pitch indoor through P10 outdoor — matched to viewing distance and content type
• Brightness: 600 cd/m² indoor through 6,000+ cd/m² for high-bright window-facing and outdoor flagship installs
• Maximum size: functionally unlimited — we drive multi-cabinet canvases up to 130 megapixels with Novastar H15 processing
• Refresh rate: up to 7,680 Hz on capable panels for HDR and broadcast-grade content
• Viewing angle: 140° horizontal and vertical typical, 178° on fine-pitch panels
• IP rating: IP20 for standard indoor through IP65 front-and-rear for outdoor / washdown deployment
• Surface options: flat, curved, double-sided, drive-on, anti-scratch, anti-slip
• Cabinet weight: 5-25 kg per cabinet depending on configuration — suitable for ceiling, wall, free-stand or floor mounting
• Compliance: CE, FCC, RoHS, structural calcs to UK building regs

How a custom LED project runs

1. Discovery call — venue type, viewing distance, content, ambient light, integration needs, deadline.
2. CAD layout & technical proposal — 3D rendering, cabinet topology, power and signal routing, mounting structure spec.
3. Engineering sign-off — structural calculations for any non-standard mounting, building-regs compliance check.
4. Manufacture & UK staging — cabinets assembled and tested in our UK facility before site delivery.
5. Installation — Dynamo engineers on site — we do not sub-contract installation.
6. Commissioning — cabinet calibration via NovaLCT, content delivery integration, end-user training.
7. SLA-backed UK support — ongoing service contract with next-business-day spares.

Why brands choose Dynamo for bespoke LED

• UK design and manufacture — not a reseller; in-house engineering team designing every custom topology.
• End-to-end delivery — we handle everything from concept through SLA support. No sub-contracting.
• Architectural integration experience — we work directly with architects (40 Leadenhall, luxury residential, Dubai Airport) rather than after the build is done.
• Panel agnosticism — standardised on Novastar processing means we drive any LED panel manufacturer that suits the budget and aesthetic.
• International delivery — UK manufacture with delivery and install across Europe, Middle East and beyond (Copenhagen, Dubai, Muscat reference projects).

Frequently asked questions

Can Dynamo build a non-rectangular LED display — curved, triangular or custom shape?
Yes. Custom-shape LED is our specialism. Triangle arrays, snowflake / ribbon shapes (AutoTrader), curved shopfronts (40 Leadenhall arches), double-sided fins, drive-on floors and irregular polygons are all routinely fabricated. We design the cabinet topology from scratch around your architectural brief.

Can a custom LED installation be integrated into a building during construction?
Yes — this is the ideal path. The 40 Leadenhall install is the reference project — 4 custom recessed LED arches built flush into foyer walls, coordinated with the building architects from day one rather than retrofitted. We work directly with architects and structural engineers on this kind of integration.

How big can a custom LED video wall be?
Functionally unlimited. Dynamo drives multi-cabinet canvases up to 130 megapixels with a single Novastar H15 processor; beyond that we tile multiple processors. The Gatwick / Heathrow shopfront installs and Dubai Airport arrivals hall are flagship examples of large-format custom LED.

Can Dynamo deliver internationally?
Yes. We have completed custom LED installations across the UK and internationally including Dubai Airport, Muscat Mall (Oman), Copenhagen (Denmark), and other European venues. UK manufacture with international delivery and on-site install.

What’s the lead time on a custom LED project?
Typical lead time is 6-12 weeks from CAD sign-off through commissioning, depending on cabinet complexity and any structural-engineering requirements. Express timelines available for events and brand activations.

Do you provide ongoing support for custom LED installations?
Yes — every install includes Dynamo’s UK SLA-backed service contract option, with next-business-day spare-cabinet swap for any critical deployment. Our engineering team handles every service visit in-house.
