Outdoor Displays in Dubai: Everything Changes Once It Is Outside

Take an indoor display outside and three things go wrong: it blows over, it fades, and it gets hot enough to distort. Outdoor displays in Dubai are built against those three facts, and the construction has very little in common with the version used in a hall.

Before it reaches you

What happens to your order before it reaches you.

Six steps, from the brief you send us to the moment it is in place.

01

Weight Comes First

Every outdoor display needs ballast, and more of it than people expect. A-frames, parasols and forecourt stands all take weighted or water filled bases, and an unweighted display is simply waiting for a gust.

02

Material Has to Take Sun

UV stable print on an outdoor rated substrate. Indoor foam board bows in a Dubai afternoon and indoor vinyl fades within a season, so the material is decided by the position and never by what is in stock.

03

Wind Needs Somewhere to Go

Solid panels catch wind. Where a display is tall or exposed, mesh or a vented panel reduces the load substantially, and that choice is made from the site and not the drawing.

04

Heat Moves Things

Panels expand through the day and contract overnight. Fixings are specified with a little tolerance so a display can move slightly without cracking its face or pulling at its frame.

05

It Will Need Cleaning

Dust settles evenly and dulls everything, and most outdoor displays taken down as faded were only dirty. A rinse every few weeks keeps them looking new far longer.

06

Built to Be Brought In

Where possible we design outdoor displays to be taken inside overnight. Those that come in last several times longer than those that do not. Plan who brings them in and who puts them out. Outdoor displays that depend on a person remembering twice a day survive far longer than those left standing, and that routine has to belong to somebody by name.

The constraint we raise early is permission. Anything standing on a pavement, a forecourt you do not own or a community common area usually needs approval, and that is slower to obtain than the display is to make.

Often dust, not fading. Try washing it first.

No. They bow, fade and blow over.
