When it came round to revamping the digital signage at the Palais des congrès de Montréal – a 551,520 sq. ft. multi-use convention center in downtown Montréal – it was quickly determined that standard mounting technology would not do. The Palais needed mounts that would blend well with the convention centre’s sleek aesthetics, meet stringent safety and performance requirements, and be robust enough to support numerous displays with as little hardware as possible. Enter Peerless-AV.
Peerless-AV proved to be the ideal partner that the Palais were searching for. Peerless-AV could deliver their needs for creative installations that would serve as state-of the-art digital signage for broadcasting rich, tailored content. Turning to Peerless-AV for advanced mounting technology help was a no brainer.
Peerless-AV’s Custom Products Division – the industry’s only team dedicated to digital signage designed and made to each customer’s exact requirements and specifications – finished the installation within weeks, with a new venue-wide dynamic signage system and a video wall in place.
For the mounts to support the upgraded digital signage, Peerless-AV’s quality work, and its ability to quickly and expertly design, manufacture and deliver custom digital supports – a capability that few audio visual technology solutions providers are able to offer – made partnering with Peerless-AV an easy decision for the Palais.
The striking venue, with its multicolored glass façade, is listed among the architectural wonders featured in the book, '1001 Buildings You Must See Before You Die'.
So, it was only fitting that the Palais’ new Peerless-AV mounts were:
• Sleek and aesthetically compatible with the convention center’s contemporary architecture
• Made of North American steel and exceptionally strong
• Fully compliant with the seismic safety certification required by the state of California’s Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD)
• Built with Peerless AV’s unique features such as wall plate spacers and
micro-adjustment knobs that make installation and maintenance easier
and less costly
• Designed and strategically positioned for maximum viewing by venue visitors
The standard mounts used in the 5 x 2 wall also have quick-turn micro-adjustment knobs so that each display’s position can be fine-tuned – without any tools – at eight different points, including up-down vertical, left-right horizontal and in-out tilt of the whole display as well as up-down roll at the display corners, as the wall is assembled. The result is a perfectly flat canvas. The DS-VW765-LAND Video Wall Mounts also feature the same patented scissors-like pull-out/prop-open mechanism for easy service access.
“Peerless-AV’s creativity and quality goes hand in hand with the goals we set forth in our IT redesign,” said Michel Poirier, Project Manager with the Palais.
“We want to deliver state-of-art technology and services to our customers so their time here is as remarkable as the Palais’ iconic and contemporary architecture.”
