With next year’s soccer World Cup expecting to attract an accumulative television audience of over 26 billion people, many of whom will be watching the matches in public areas such as bars, pubs, restaurants, beer gardens or town squares.
It is no surprise then that the number of LCD TVs that will end up outdoors is also expected to dramatically increase as more and more bars, pubs and clubs take advantage of the World Cup fever and install outdoor LCD TVs and plasmas.
While watching the World Cup outdoors with a few beers amongst friends has perhaps an atmosphere second only to being in the stadium itself, it does provide problems when it comes to safe operation of the LCD TV.
Having a TV outdoors means that the TV has to be protected, not just from the weather elements like rain but also needs to be tough and secure enough to withstand attempts at vandalism or theft.
Weatherproof LCD enclosures deigned to accommodate nearly any size of standard LCD screen are ideal for this job. Not only will they protect the TV from rainfall and other weather elements but also they are manufactured from solid steel with shatterproof polycarbonate screens ensuring they can withstand the most tenacious vandal or angry football fan. They can also be securely mounted to walls or ceilings making them next to impossible to steal.
By using LCD enclosures, any standard TV can be used as an outdoor entertainment centre. Simply place the TV in the LCD enclosure, plug in your speaker system and cable/digital box and you are ready to go. Now more and more business will be able to take advantage of the World Cup Fever, attracting more customers, thanks to the versatility of LCD enclosures.
