Planning costs

Start with the complete project.

These are planning figures for a complete Qohr project: the wall itself, the structure that holds it, the electrical and data coordination, the installation, and training for your team. Which range fits depends on the wall, the room, and what the system has to do each week.

Coordinated displays, processing and control, structure, installation, and support. Total area varies with the configuration.

These are project planning examples, not fixed packages or prices per square meter. The area bands overlap at 12 and 23 m² because size alone does not set the scope. Confirm inclusions in your proposal: electrical and data coordination does not mean all local trade work is included, and shipping, travel, tax, and site preparation must be identified separately.

LED wall dimensions

What does a square meter mean for an LED wall?

A square meter is the surface area of the screen: width times height. A 12.0 m² (129 sq ft) wall at 16:9 is about 4.6 m (15.2 ft) wide and 2.6 m (8.5 ft) tall. Measure your own wall in meters and multiply to get your number.

Wall area is one of the first things to work out, because it tells you roughly how much LED the room needs. A wall is built from identical panels, so as it gets larger the panel count, the structure carrying it, and the power it draws all rise with it. That is why the ranges above are grouped by size.

Area tells you how big the wall is, not how sharp it looks. That is pixel pitch, the distance between pixels, and it is why two walls the same size can land at different prices. In general, the closer people sit, the finer the pitch needs to be.

Use the LED Wall Builder to explore dimensions and a preliminary layout. A concept is not a site-specific installation proposal.

Package and project

A wall is more than its panels.

Take a 12–23 m² (129–248 sq ft) sanctuary wall at 2.6mm. On a 16:9 screen that runs from about 4.6 m (15.2 ft) wide by 2.6 m (8.5 ft) tall up to 6.4 m (21.0 ft) wide by 3.6 m (11.8 ft) tall. For a wall that size, here is how the hardware compares with the complete project. These are planning ranges, not proposals.

The package plus design and engineering, the structure that carries the wall, electrical and data coordination, installation, calibration and commissioning, training, and logistics.

When you compare quotes, check that they cover the same scope. A price for panels alone is not the same as a price for a wall that is engineered, installed, and proven working.

What a complete Qohr project involves

Display package

Panels, processor, pixel pitch, cabinet family, spares, and the wall-specific pieces that make the display workable.

Room coordination

Structure, mounting, power, data, access, and coordination with the building and local trades.

Installation and commissioning

On-site installation, signal setup, image calibration, testing, and commissioning for the finished system.

Training and support

Spare parts, operator training, handoff, logistics, and a clear path for ongoing support.

Project timeline

From first measurement to first service.

Qohr builds the schedule around access, structure, power, data, and the room calendar. A typical single-wall project moves through four stages.

  1. Review the room and design the wall. Layout, pixel pitch, processing, support, power, and cable routes, agreed with the trades involved.
  2. Prepare the site. Access, building work, electrical provision, and delivery timing are confirmed before the installation crew arrives.
  3. Install on site. Once the room is ready, a single wall’s on-site work is often measured in days.
  4. Calibrate, test, and train. Image consistency, camera performance, and every output are checked, then the system is handed over to the people who run it each week.

The room-specific plan confirms the full schedule, from equipment delivery to the crew’s days on site. For more on each stage, read the church LED wall installation guide.

Price drivers

Why the same-size walls differ.

Size is only the starting point. These parts of the design shape the final project cost.

Wall size, panel family, and pitch

How big the wall is sets how many panels it takes. How those panels are built, and how tightly their pixels are spaced, decides which panel family suits the room and how much detail the wall can show.

Structure and mounting

The wall can hang on a wall, hang from the structure above, or stand on its own frame. Each one takes different hardware and different coordination, and the building and the stage decide which is right.

Processing, cameras, and spares

If the wall will be on camera, the processing has to be more precise. Spare panels from the same production batch, and a properly built signal path, keep the wall dependable week to week.

Access, power, and data

Getting equipment into the building, reaching the wall later to service it, the electrical capacity you have, where cable can run, and whether the network is ready all affect how the system is prepared and installed.

Logistics

Shipping, travel, scheduling, room readiness, and coordination with local trades can move the final project figure.

Pixel pitch

Choose for the closest viewer.

Pixel pitch is the distance from one pixel to the next, measured in millimeters. A smaller number means a finer image up close. The closest viewing distance, what you put on the wall, and camera use should guide the choice.

2.6mm

The common sanctuary starting point

A practical balance for lyrics, scripture, live video, and typical sanctuary viewing distances.

1.95mm

Useful when people are closer

A finer image can make sense in close-viewing rooms, lobbies, or places where people regularly stand near the wall.

3.9mm

Can make sense at longer distances

The pixels sit farther apart, which can be fine when the nearest seats are well back from the wall. The room and the content should confirm the choice.

Practical answers

Church LED wall cost questions.

Room-specific budget

Send the wall size you have in mind, how far away the closest seats are, photos of the room and stage, whether you use cameras, and anything you know about the structure and the power in the building. Qohr can turn that context into a useful planning budget.

Request a room-specific budget

Qohr’s published planning examples range from $16,000–$31,000 for a 4–12 m² small or auxiliary wall to $42,000–$49,000 for a 12–23 m² sanctuary wall at 2.6mm. A 23–32 m² single-wall example is around $68,000, while multi-wall examples range from $91,000–$187,000. These describe installed project scopes, not panel-only prices. These are project planning examples, not fixed packages or prices per square meter. The area bands overlap at 12 and 23 m² because size alone does not set the scope. Confirm inclusions in your proposal: electrical and data coordination does not mean all local trade work is included, and shipping, travel, tax, and site preparation must be identified separately.
