Outdoor AV needs to do more than look good on day one. It needs to survive the environment it is installed in.
Ultralift Australia designs and manufactures outdoor TV enclosures, projector enclosures, motorised mounts, lifts and custom AV protection systems for residential, commercial, hospitality, marine and public outdoor spaces. Our systems help protect screens, projectors and AV equipment from the conditions that make outdoor installations difficult: rain, humidity, salt air, dust, insects, heat, UV exposure, glare, public access and general wear.
An outdoor screen can transform a space. It can turn a pool area into an entertainment zone, a rooftop bar into a live sports venue, a courtyard into an outdoor cinema or a home alfresco area into a second living room. But outdoor installations need to be planned properly. A standard indoor TV, projector or bracket is usually not enough when the equipment is exposed to heat, moisture, corrosion, wind, dirt and changing light conditions.
Ultralift helps project teams specify outdoor AV systems that are practical, protected and properly integrated into the site.
The biggest difference between an indoor and outdoor AV installation is exposure.
Outdoor screens and projectors may need protection from rain, humidity, sea air, insects, dust, impact, theft, tampering and temperature changes. They also need the right location, ventilation, access and cable management. Even a well-protected display can perform poorly if it is installed in direct sun, positioned at the wrong angle or placed where heat cannot escape.
That is why outdoor AV should be considered early in the project. The enclosure, lift, mount, finish, ventilation, drainage, cabling and service access all need to work together.
Ultralift can assist homeowners, architects, designers, builders, AV integrators and venue operators with product selection and technical guidance before the installation reaches site.
