If you are a stadium planner or plan to build a stadium, and want to buy a scoreboard to install in the stadium, what factors will affect its price.
What are the important factors affecting scoreboard prices?
We consulted several major scoreboard manufacturers and summarized several important factors that will affect the price of scoreboards. Let’s take a look.
Scoreboard Size
No matter what product it is, the price will naturally be different if the size is different. After all, larger scoreboards require more materials and construction costs.
Scoreboard Material
When building scoreboards in different venues, the materials used are completely different. Many government-built public stadiums or simple stadiums built by individuals usually use cheap acrylic materials with LEDs for score display, while professional stadiums use high-definition LED displays.
Compared with professional stadium LED displays, ordinary acrylic scoreboards are easier to make and have a short service life, so acrylic scoreboards are much cheaper.
Scoreboard Function
The scoreboard is a very flexible stadium application. It can be customized according to the functions we want to achieve. In addition to the most basic score records, time display, game playback and other functions can also be added. The more functions, the higher the corresponding cost.
Scoreboard Installation
If we pay close attention, we will find that the installation position of the scoreboard is not fixed. Some are installed on the wall of the venue, and some are suspended in the air. This requires flexible design according to the size, location and audience perspective of the venue.
Different installation methods cost completely different manpower and material resources. For example, the steps of hanging scoreboards are usually more complicated than those of wall-mounted scoreboards, so the price is naturally much higher.
In addition to the above-mentioned key factors affecting scoreboards, there may be other factors affecting scoreboards, such as transportation costs, time costs and labor costs during installation.
