Hide Mechanical Equipment with Style! PalmSHIELD’s LED Backlit Mechanical Equipment Screen Solution

When it comes to obscuring mechanical equipment (HVACs, cooling towers, transformers, solar panels, etc.), PalmSHIELD—the nation’s leading contractor for custom-made screening—offers the best solutions on the market. Our panels feature a sturdy picture frame design for extra strength and longevity. And when it comes to infill, we have numerous options: from our elegant louvers to trellis infill (great for gardens and public walkways) to solid panels. All carefully designed and put together by trained professionals. Here at PalmSHIELD, everything is made custom. When you contact our sales staff (via calling or through our free quote form), we’ll take the design you want and request the measurements of your installation site. CAD drawings for your project are produced according to said measurements, and we don’t fabricate the screening until you give us the thumbs up!

Of course, the right screen style depends on your specific needs. If ventilation and airflow are needed for the equipment you’re housing, check out our louvered infill or perforated screening; these styles permit air movement and allow exhaust to escape. Gardens and pathways benefit from our trellis screening. But there are also cases where total visual seclusion is necessary, and for that we recommend solid screening. That doesn’t mean, of course, that screening cannot be visually stylish. Another design option is our LED Backlit mechanical equipment screen system.

How are LED Backlit screens made?

As we mentioned earlier, all PalmSHIELD products are custom-made from top to bottom. This includes the design for our LED Backlit panels. One of the great things about these barriers is they display logos, images of mascots, and any other design you want. These images are carved (pristinely) through the screens’ faces via first-rate laser technology. Behind the surface—and visible through the carved-in design—is an acrylic sheet, and behind that the eponymous LEDs. The light shines through the acrylic and, when projected through the laser-cut holes in the aluminum panel face, produces an attractive image-based display.

Places where LED Backlit screens work

PalmSHIELD’s LED Backlit screening is ideal for clients who need to disguise mechanical equipment while, at the same time, not sacrificing visual appeal. (In point of fact, they’re ideal for those wishing to boost visual appeal.) Examples include:

  • Museums
  • Art galleries
  • Stores
  • Schools
  • Gymnasiums
  • Gardens
  • Movie theaters
  • Swimming pools
  • Courtyards

Mechanical equipment screens for museums and art galleries are best embodied by these LED backlit panels. These institutions are known for their artistic displays, so barriers that showcase color are the ideal fit. Colorful panels also help immeasurably in capturing the attention of passersby. For this reason, stores and businesses benefit from using these fixtures. These panels can be used also as dumpster enclosures: completely sealing off trash receptacles while catching the eyes of those nearby. Basically, the way to think of LED Backlit panels is as a screening solution that also doubles as eye candy for your building, and an attractant for customers!
