Monetize your screens with ads promoting local business and keep tenants informed about important events. Easily install interactive tablets and digital screens powered by QL Player inside or near elevator cabins.

Here’s why QL digital signage software is your best choice for elevator signage QL Player software operates on a “download and play” model where content is downloaded and saved on the hard drive of each device. If your elevator has an intermittent internet connection, QL Player will continue playing stored content while it’s offline.

QL is compatible with many hardware devices and operating systems, including Windows, Android, and several System-on-Chip display brands. Navori Labs also offers its own Android-powered Stix 3700 device, which is a professional-grade, 4K device designed for high-demand applications. The QL Stix comes in a very compact package that is easily concealable and well suited for elevator cabins.

QL Content Manager is the platform’s HTML5 user interface, and it features intuitive and user-friendly content creation tools. The built-in Template Designer tool lets anyone create attractive layouts with multiple media zones, text boxes, video streams, live data feeds, and more. The software’s Ticker Designer lets users create graphic and data-driven overlays to display useful information across any media.

There are two types of elevator digital signage screens. Those installed inside elevator cabins and displays located near elevators, also called elevator hall signage.

Elevator halls have similar requirements as your typical wall-mounted digital signage displays. You need to mount the display securely and conceal any wiring or devices. These days, most building displays will be recessed into the wall to blend into the décor and provide a more professional look. Electrical sources and network cabling are also easy to find, which makes the installation process very straightforward.

Elevator cabins, on the other hand, present a unique set of challenges. It’s why you should use a small Android device or a System-on-Chip display with the media player built into the screen.

Whether in an elevator hall or elevator cabin, elevator digital signage offers a unique way to communicate with passengers. This can be done in a cost-effective and versatile manner by using elevator digital signage systems like QL.

Elevator digital signage can also be used to promote safety and to calm passengers in the event of an emergency. Elevator operators are obligated by law to provide passengers with a certain amount of time for emergency evacuation, and that’s just one reason why it is important for them to communicate information about elevator safety.

One way you can use elevator signage is by sharing safety tips and emergency messaging with your passengers while they are trapped in your elevator. This helps them feel more relaxed and comfortable while also educating them on how they can avoid getting stuck in an elevator again if this happens again in the future.

In short, elevator digital signage is a great way to communicate with passengers. It’s easy to use and can be customized to your specific needs. If you want more information about how our products can benefit your facility, contact us today!

It is becoming increasingly common for elevators to have screens that show digital content. Content on these screens ranges from advertising to lunch menus to internal communications. What makes signage in elevators effective is that the signs have a uniquely captive audience. For a few rare moments, people stop during their busy schedules. This time is your opportunity to engage with them.

Getting digital signage screens installed into the elevator is just the start. Once you install the screens, you need to manage content on these screens. A typical “solution” for content management in elevators boils down to switching out USB sticks or SD cards to propagate your content to multiple screens. That process is not ideal. The process might work if you only manage one elevator and only need to update the content once a month, but what if you operate 15 elevators and need to update content on a bi-weekly basis?

Enter Screenly. Because the Screenly Player is a Raspberry Pi-based device, it boasts extremely low power consumption and an extremely small size. These features mean that you can easily fit the Screenly Player into the smallest of spaces, like an elevator. Moreover, most elevator monitors do have HDMI input, which means that you can easily retrofit an existing screen in your elevator with Screenly.

In some elevators, an internet connection over ethernet or WiFi is only live when the elevator is in “sleep mode”. Other elevators have a constant internet connection. Here, it is important to note that you do not need an internet connection during all parts of the day to use Screenly. This reality is because Screenly Players locally cache content.

One of the most impressive deployments that we have seen of Screenly is in the Merchandise Mart, an iconic building in downtown Chicago. There are hidden screens in the building’s stunning elevators. The screens display a slideshow of historical images from the building and surrounding area.

The average elevator user will transport floor-to-floor an average of 4 times daily. Why is important for business owners? That is an average of four opportunities in a day for these users to engage with elevator digital signage. Additionally, it’s four opportunities to communicate an important message or upsell a service/product. Implementing digital signage for your elevators will increase your chances of customers/employees engaging with your message.

There are multiple options and placement for digital signage inside your elevator. Ultimately, you’ll want to place your signage in areas depending on foot traffic, height and size. If you’re looking to “wow” your customers, bigger digital signage screens in the back of the elevator is perfect. This can be a video wall, LCD screen, LCD panel, or TV.

There are two main types of digital signage display screens for elevators, depending on the installation location. You can install these elevator displays inside the elevator cabin or in the hall near the elevators.

For the screens mounted inside the cabin, you will do well to select a small screen or android device with a media player embedded into the screen. What’s more, the installation is more straightforward with screens that support HDMI connections. Wiring the internet connection for these elevator cabin screens may be a big challenge. For this reason, Wi-Fi may be your go-to option for internet access.

The second type of elevator digital signage displays are no different from your typical displays. You will need a wall mount to keep the screens securely in place. Hardwiring for access to power and ethernet should be fairly easy. You can hide these cables into the wall and avoid taking away from the aesthetics of the wall.

Digital signage is very versatile, and you can use it in different ways. For elevator digital signage solutions, here is a look at some top uses which will ensure you get real value from your investment.

Display helpful building information on the elevator screens to help tenants and visitors alike. For instance, an easy-to-understand building directory can be a powerfulwayfinding tool, especially for visitors.

Additionally, this digital signage solution is great for displaying the rules and guidelines that may apply to tenants and visitors. This way, everyone is on the same page about the do’s and don’ts as they apply. For one thing, everyone will enjoy a harmonious coexistence, not to mention avoiding any penalties for non-compliance.

Have a scheduled maintenance run for the elevators coming up soon? Let users know in advance when they can expect the elevators to be out of service and for how long. Some users who are not keen on using the stairs will find this information very useful as they will know when to wait until the elevators are back in operation to move around.

Moreover, you can use the digital signage screens to announce any upcoming events for the building. Whether it’s a Christmas party or cookout on the rooftop on the weekend, share the event details with anyone who may be interested in attending. For various reasons, it is a better alternative to going around handing out event flyers.

In addition to general building information, you can help put the minds of elevator users at ease by displaying emergency information. On the digital signage screens, clearly outline the mapped-out escape routes and emergency exits. Also, include specific instructions on what to do during an emergency, and provide emergency contacts.

Imagine getting into the elevator and coming across real-time weather updates, or live traffic updates. For one thing, you will know whether you are really dressed for the weather, and this crucial information could save you from catching that stubborn cold again. Also, you will know the best route to take to save time and avoid all the hassle of sitting in traffic.

In the end, it is about adding real value to the user. Thus, such digital signage content will get the attention of a captive audience as it adds value by providing meaningful insights.

Transform every elevator ride into a fun-filled and entertaining one with elevator digital signage. Whether a user is going up or down a few floors or way more floors, make the ride a great one. Nothing like what they may be used to with everyone staring awkwardly into nothingness.

Add inspirational texts and videos, and play mood music to entertain users on their elevator ride. Moreover, you can add social media posts and similar content that may entertain the users. The ride up or down will not seem as long, no matter the number of floors, when there is such entertaining content in the background to capture elevator users’ attention.

Additionally, you can look forward to great success with running an ad campaign in the elevators, as there are no distractions in this set-up. Unlike other locations where distractions may take away the target audience’s attention, the high-brightness advertising display will catch the elevator users’ attention. Similarly, without any distractions, the target audience can more easily and readily digest the content of your ad.

That said, whether you are advertising available space in the building or running a promotion for a specific business, rest assured of how effective digital signage marketing can be.

Whether you are installing elevator digital signage screens inside the elevator cabins or in the hallway next to the elevator, you can create a unique experience for elevator users. Thus, create and upload the right content, and you can inform, entertain and run a highly-targeted marketing campaign.

The term “elevator pitch” – a quick summary of a business or product and its value to consumers – gets its name from the fact that elevator rides are short. Only a limited amount of time is available to convey information and capture attention, and that time must be used wisely. For new businesses, it’s one of their most delicate and scrutinized assets.

Much like an elevator pitch, elevator digital signage must be time-efficient. However, unlike an elevator pitch – which doesn’t necessarily take place in an actual elevator – elevator digital signage resides in elevators. That context must be taken into account, leading to some important “do’s” and don’t’s”. Here are five of them.

When was the last time you were in an elevator and thought to yourself, “Gee, this is so boring. Wish I had some entertainment in here!” That’s because you’re rarely in an elevator for long enough to feel that way.

People in elevators are focused on getting to where they’re going. They’re not looking to be entertained. What they’re more likely to be receptive to is information. No one rides an elevator without some sort of purpose – otherwise, how would they even know which button to push? Take advantage of that frame of mind and provide information they may need or appreciate having, like hours of operation, building amenities or the local weather.

Digital signage users have a choice when it comes to managing content: they can use a content management system (CMS) with a cloud-based dashboard, or a do-it-yourself (DIY) solution like USB drives, Apple TV or Chromecast. We strongly recommend the first option, using a cloud-based CMS, for a few reasons including:

You can control your content remotely. You don’t have to be near your digital displays in order to update them. They can even be across multiple locations. All you need is an internet-connected device. Log into your dashboard, make the necessary changes, and that’s it.

You can update content instantly. Information you display on your elevator screens may be subject to change or in need of regular updating. A cloud-based CMS allows you to update content instantly, preventing audiences from receiving outdated or inaccurate information.

You can schedule content. Automation, anyone? Content scheduling also allows you to be strategic and targeted with your content. You can set content to display on certain days or at certain times of day, according to foot traffic patterns or any time-sensitive content.

You can keep your displays and content organized by using features like Display Groups and having multiple user accounts and permissions. You can even see the connection status of your displays.

If you display too much content – too many graphics or too much text on the screen at once – your audience won’t have the time (or the willingness) to consume all of it. Stick to what’s most valuable for both you and your audience.

Graphics are easy and quick to consume, especially during a short elevator ride. Choose photos that put whatever you’re promoting in its most attractive light, and make sure it’s indicative – for instance, a high-quality photo of a Happy Hour cocktail to promote bar specials.

Text is fine, but as previously stated, keep it concise. If you display too much text, you risk the content being overlooked or viewers not having enough time to skim all of it.

CrownTV client Gansevoort Hotel Group keeps its elevator digital signage content perfectly minimalist at its New York City hotels, as shown in the photo above. Short one- or two-sentence reviews of the hotel accompany attractive photos of hotel amenities. Simple yet effective.

Deployment of elevator digital signage is a bit different than that of other forms of digital signage. Although the CrownTV digital signage player is a plug-and-play device, you’ll need professional assistance to install displays in your elevators.

First, as required by United States law, you’ll need a licensed elevator professional to wire electrical outlets for your digital displays and players within your elevator cars. This can be done in a manner that conceals the outlet and all the wiring, so don’t worry about it looking tacky.

When it comes to your displays, we recommend TV screens with full HD resolution that are 24” or smaller. The CrownTV player supports resolutions of up to 4K. To mount your displays we recommend using professional assistance, but it’s not required.

No technical assistance is necessary to install our player, as it’s a true plug-and-play solution. Just connect it to your display via an HDMI or RCA cable and connect it to power. You can use velcro to attach the player to the back of the display and keep it concealed, which we would recommend.

CrownTV’s player comes with a patented technology allowing content to be refreshed without a constant wifi connection, which is especially useful in elevators that are always moving. Otherwise, you can always use an ethernet connection.

Context is huge when it comes to digital signage. Treat your elevator digital signage content like a virtual elevator pitch and your business will certainly be going up.

Digital signage has a greater influence in accelerating the value of the building also. It gives the building management a chance to rise rental charges and lift profits.

The Broadcasts made in video form are highly mesmerizing and very smart. Therefore, many firms seeking advertising platforms will reflect the buildings with digital signage.

By mounting digital screens on the elevator and other parts of the building, you will be able to invite many people. This will allow you to gain more clients.

Digital Signage in elevators of a commercial or residential building has the potential to increase customer or tenant engagement, empower its audience and consequently improve rent rates.

For marketing to help companies, they should ensure their advertisements are featured in locations that grasp the attention of the customers. A very efficient place to mount a digital signage display is in elevators. Mostly, lifts tend to be monotonous as strangers occupy it, and sometimes take a long time. The quiet zone created in lifts can result in an attention-grabbing opportunity. Below are benefits of digital display in elevators.

There are virtually no distractions in elevators. In other locations, various distractions will make people oblivious to notice the information on the signage. However, in an elevator, electronic signs will have the capability of attracting the attention of everybody on board. With minimal distractions, people will have sufficient time to digest the information on the screen.

It is advisable for busy buildings to have digital signage in their elevators. Marketing is more effective when the advertisements are placed in areas that attract more people. Thus, using digital signage in a busy buildings elevator will assure many views for targeted commercialization. This placement will meet the goal of marketers in acquiring clients.

The level of interaction in an elevator is minimal even for the people that know each other. Some people have to take several minutes to reach the upper floors. It is a good idea to eliminate this boredom by using electronic signage. Make the elevator be a somewhat exciting and educational location for the buildings tenants and guests.

Studying an audience"s reactions is very easy since they will be a similar targeted demographic every day. Within the elevator, you can get information from customers about the products and services you are planning to advertise. Various businesses that are tenants of that building will also aid in guiding the advertiser to know what this audience"s preferences are. A proper study will influence the success of the digital signage TV screen.

The digital signage can be used as a form of entertainment for the people boarding the elevator. Some buildings have many floors, which are forty levels or more. As mentioned previously, people going to the highest levels might take several minutes before arriving there. To make the distance shorter for them, and potentially sell them a product, or educate them - use the digital TV screen to keep them busy with advertisements and entertainment.

These screens can also be used to display the building guidelines and rules that apply to tenants and visitors. Creating content for such displays is very easy using customizable templates, as all it takes is a few clicks to select and customize a template. Also, seasonal holiday greetings could also be displayed on the screen to promote a holiday spirit.

Digital signage screens in elevators are a great place to provide emergency exit and other related information. The TV screen could show escape routes, phone numbers, and instructions that could put the elevator passengers at ease in case of an emergency.

Affixing digital advertising signage screens in elevators can provide the perfect opportunity for other companies to advertise their products and merchandise. For them to use your digital signage, they must pay for them. This can be another way of boosting the income of the building. The cost per advertisement on display will depend on the number of people that frequently visit the building every day.

HD signage TV screens in elevators increase the value of a building. You will realize that rent differs from the city. The difference is caused by the amenities that have been installed or are available in the building. Digital signage has a greater impact in escalating the value of the building too. Thus giving the building owner, or management an opportunity to increase your rental charges and boost profits.

The use of digital signage is the new method of advertising, as mentioned in another article. It is more impactful as people are now interested in viewing advertisements in digital form. Announcements made in video form are highly fascinating and very attractive. Hence, numerous firms seeking advertising platforms will consider the buildings with digital signage. Adoption of this technology will make your building preferable for lucrative businesses.

Digital signage in an elevator can be useful in enabling people to know more about the various activities found in the building. Marketing the trades of your tenants is one way of empowering them. This will help visitors potentially have their needs met by the business located in the building. You can create a payment plan with the resident tenants and boost your income.

Imagine a person getting lost in a building with more than twenty floors. That can be very frustrating for that individual. Most people get lost in buildings that do not have proper direction. You have the ability to minimize these cases by having digital signage that shows the location of the offices in the building by using wayfinding content. This will allow people to know the exact places they should go.

By installing digital screens on the elevator and other parts of the building, you will be able to attract many residents. Many businesspersons will see the digital screens as an opportunity to market their products within the building. This will enable them to gain more customers. You will also benefit by charging them for the advertising services.

It is almost impossible for people in the elevator to ignore looking at the digital signage screen at least once, while on their ride. By uploading an advertisement on the screen, you should be well assured that everyone using it will take the time to view it for the duration of their elevator trip. Hence, the elevator is effectual in marketing.

Elevators and people! What a perfect combination for digital signage. Because you have a captive audience, digital signage for elevators is the perfect solution for sending highly targeted information, ads, and notifications!

From being able to update the updates, to selling ad spots remotely, you can dramatically use elevator digital signage to improve your share company communications.

From a screens standpoint, you can use any TV or android tablet. However, when going with an Android tablet, you will save money on hardware costs, plus you will be able to install the elevator signage software right onto the tablet.

The most popular elevator displays are small form screens ranging in 10″, 15″ and 22″ sizes. In addition, Android tablets are often used because the software can be installed directly onto the units, eliminating the need for external media players.

If you are looking to use 32″ displays or more extensive, you can, but keep in mind the available spacing inside the elevator. Also, you don’t want the screens to be too big or overwhelming.

For elevator digital signage, the most critical aspect is outlining your needs. Sit down with your team, and outline what you’re looking to accomplish. Based on this, you will draft a content plan that will make setting up your messages fast and easy.

To get your information on to the elevator digital signs, you will need cloud-based digital signage software. That will allow you to edit, upload remotely and manage your screens. At NoviSign, we specialize in elevator digital signage software.
