The "Preparation Phase"


Tool Kit: Impact drill, spirit level, screwdriver, and measuring tape.

Site Inspection: Confirm the wall's load-bearing capacity. While wooden partitions are fine for smaller units, a solid wall (concrete or brick)

is highly recommended for larger displays.

Pro Tips: An Insider’s Guide to Avoiding Mistakes

Because of their unique aspect ratio, the physical structure of a stretched bar display is more delicate than a standard 16:9 screen. To ensure a smooth setup, always follow these professional guidelines:

Attention

Avoiding pitfalls

Risk

Pressure Points

Strictly prohibit pressing on the front of the screen! When handling, apply pressure only to the metal frame.

Stretched screens lack central horizontal support; pressing on them can easily lead to liquid leakage or a shattered display.

Heat Dissipation Space

If using a recessed (in-wall) installation, adequate space must be

reserved at the rear.

Poor heat dissipation will lead to overheating of the screen, resulting in a black screen.

Screw Length

You must use the manufacturer’s original screws or strictly verify the length before use.

Screws that are too long will directly puncture the backplate and may even pierce the LCD panel.

Conclusion
In the end, is installing a bar screen difficult? Not at all, it just requires a bit of "patience."
