Due to its lightness, ease of installation, flexible design and strong atmosphere, it has become widely popular in home decoration, commercial Settings, festival arrangements and social media platforms in recent years. LED mesh lighting is also a large-pitch LED display screen, which is a spliced LED display module composed of LED light points, PC card strips, aluminum buckles, steel wires, LED strip connector and other components. The dot pitch is between 35mm and 100mm. Through splicing, it can easily achieve a super-large display area ranging from tens of square meters to tens of thousands of square meters. It has incomparable advantages in the fields of ultra-large area display and creative display.
Remember to troubleshoot before installation! If you are still not clear about how to wire, you can refer to this super detailed guide on the LED Strip Wiring Troubleshooting.
1. High transparency
The transparency can reach 50% to 90%, which is much higher than that of traditional LED screens (close to 0%).
Allow natural light to pass through without affecting the building's lighting or the indoor view.
It is almost "invisible" during the day, but when lit up at night, it presents a brilliant picture, achieving the effect of "glass during the day and a screen at night".
Applicable scenarios: glass curtain walls, street-facing display Windows, airports, subway stations and other Spaces that need to balance lighting and advertising display.
2. It is lightweight and easy to install
The module structure is simple and its weight is usually only 1/3 to 1/2 of that of traditional LED screens.
It supports multiple installation methods such as hoisting, embedding and suspension, and has low requirements for the load-bearing capacity of buildings.
Modular design makes transportation, maintenance and replacement convenient.
Advantages: Particularly suitable for weight-sensitive occasions such as the facades of high-rise buildings, temporary stages, and rental projects.
3. Good heat dissipation and energy-saving performance
The open structure is conducive to air circulation, has a good natural heat dissipation effect and reduces the reliance on fans.
High-brightness and low-power LED beads (such as SMD or COB packaging) are widely adopted, achieving energy savings of over 30%.
Long service life (usually ≥50,000 hours), reducing long-term operating costs.
4. The visual effect is unique
The dot pitch is relatively large, making it suitable for viewing from a far distance (over 10 meters).
Although it is not a high-definition screen, the display effects of dynamic videos, text, logos, etc. are stunning, especially at night when it has a strong visual impact.
Customizable shapes (arc, cylinder, irregular shape), breaking the "square box" limitation of traditional screens.
5. High protection level, suitable for outdoor environments
Most products have IP65 or IP67 protection certifications, are not afraid of water, dust, and can also withstand ultraviolet radiation.
It can adapt to temperatures ranging from minus 20 degrees to plus 60 degrees, and it is reliable to use in any environment.
The surface can be treated to prevent glare and reflection, making it clear and not tiring to the eyes even during the day.
6. Flexible customization and strong scalability
Supports free cutting or splicing according to project size, suitable for irregular building structures.
It can be integrated with materials such as glass, metal and acrylic to create an integrated aesthetic design.
Supports a synchronous control system to achieve multi-screen linkage, real-time live streaming, and interactive content playback.
The control methods of mesh lights are diverse. Besides the common Bluetooth /Wi-Fi, high-end projects often adopt the DMX control system to achieve precise dimming and dynamic effects. If you are planning a professional lighting solution that requires multi-lamp synchronization, it is strongly recommended that you first understand the basic principles of DMX.

1. Park squares or science and technology exhibition halls: The flexible and customized design of the grid screen can be matched with different shapes and building surfaces. In such scenarios, various creative lighting concepts can be flexibly and variously realized, such as body-sensing interaction, infrared sensing, and lighting scene interaction, etc.
2. Building facades or glass curtain walls: The characteristics of LED grid screens make them require almost no steel structure during installation, thus minimizing the impact on the surface of buildings or glass curtain walls.
3. Cultural tourism projects or stage design: LED grid screens can be built in various forms according to the requirements of cultural tourism projects and stage designs. By taking advantage of the transparent and thin features of the LED screen itself, a strong perspective effect is produced, making the depth of field of the entire picture longer. This creates a superimposition effect between the images on the grid screen and the real scenes behind it, forming a visual feast that combines the virtual and the real, and is both real and illusory.
4.Outdoor advertising space: The new form of the outdoor advertising era, the life carrier of small-screen display advertising, makes the approval process for outdoor advertising screens easier and safer. The features such as lightness, thinness, strong wind load capacity and the ability to display on both sides make urban commercial advertisements more diverse and bring more commercial value possibilities.

1. Confirm Installation Details
Determine the installation location and application scenario of the LED mesh light. Different scenarios require different installation methods and protection standards. For instance, in indoor dry environments and outdoor humid environments, the requirements for the waterproof grade of lamps and the selection of fixed accessories are different.
The coverage area and hanging height of the net lights need to be planned according to the size of the installation area. Mark the installation positions of power sockets and controllers to ensure wiring is convenient to connect and aesthetically concealed.
2. Preparation list of LED mesh light installation tools
To install LED mesh lights, you need to prepare basic tools such as electric drills 、power adapter(must match the voltage and power of the mesh light)、controller、screws and hooks (or other fixing accessories) . When installing at heights, ladders or folding scaffolding should also be used.
Step 1: Install the hoisting beam
As the load-bearing foundation of the screen body, first determine the installation position of the hanging beam and make positioning marks. Fix the hanging beam to the building structure through embedded parts to ensure a firm installation without tilting.
Step 2: Fix the mesh screen
First, set up the support frame on the hanging beam. Then fix the single grid screen module to the frame. For indoor use, you can apply back adhesive and add clips. For outdoor use, additional screws can be used for reinforcement to prevent the module from shaking.
Step 3: Splicing the mesh screen
Assemble the modules layer by layer from bottom to top, control the gaps between the modules well, and ensure that the overall surface is flat after assembly. If it is an arc-shaped installation, connect it along the curved characteristics of the screen body to avoid damage.
Step 4: Install the sub-control
Install the sub-controller near the module. If it is outdoors, put it in a waterproof box. Fix the sub-controller on the frame and make proper markings for convenient subsequent maintenance.
Step 5: Connect the sub-control, power supply and network cable
Connect the power supply and network cable to the sub-controller respectively, and pay attention to the correspondence between the positive and negative poles and the interface. Waterproof treatment should be done for the outdoor connection parts, and the cables should be fixed with wire clamps to prevent loosening.
Step 6: Connect the controller to the computer and debug the software
Connect the controller, the sub-controller and the computer, power on and see if the screen can light up normally.Install the control software, adjust the color and display effect, and ensure no dark spots, no color cast. After installation, organize the wires properly. Outdoor screens must be properly grounded for lightning protection. The data of the equipment should be kept well and the waterproof components should be inspected regularly on a regular basis.
The connection of circuits is a crucial step in the installation of LED mesh lights. It is necessary to operate strictly in accordance with the norms to ensure the safety of electricity usage. After the connection of the lines is completed, do not rush to fix the lines and hide the accessories. First, conduct a power-on test to ensure that the grid lights are working properly and promptly identify any faults. During the testing process, if it is found that the installation position of the grid lamp is offset or tilted, or the Angle and range of the light irradiation do not meet the requirements, adjustments should be made in a timely manner.
Through the above steps, I believe everyone has mastered the installation method of LED mesh lights. From the initial preparation to the later maintenance, no link can be ignored. In addition to considering practicality and aesthetics, installation safety must also be guaranteed. As long as you put in a little more effort, you can make your venue present a unique atmosphere.
