Electronic Message Centers (EMCs) are one of the most effective forms of sign advertising available today. These digital displays allow you to showcase dynamic content, including promotions, announcements, and branding, all from a single sign. Unlike traditional static signage, EMCs give you the ability to update your message instantly and keep your content fresh, relevant, and engaging 24/7.
EMCs are commonly integrated into Monument Signs, Pylon Signs, or mounted directly to building walls, making them a versatile solution for a wide range of applications. Whether you’re attracting roadside traffic or communicating with visitors on-site, these displays provide unmatched visibility and flexibility. With remote access capabilities, content can be updated anytime without the need for physical changes to the sign.
These displays are available in different pixel pitches, typically 6mm or 10mm, depending on the viewing distance. A 10mm display is ideal for higher-speed roadways and long-distance visibility, while 6mm offers sharper resolution for closer viewing environments. This ensures your message remains clear, legible, and impactful no matter where your audience is located.
If you’re looking to maximize visibility and take full control of your messaging, electronic message centers offer a powerful, modern solution. They not only enhance your brand presence but also create new opportunities to communicate with your audience in real time.
Choose the right display resolution to match your viewing distance and environment. Electronic message centers are available in multiple pixel pitches, ensuring your content stays clear, sharp, and effective whether viewed up close or from the road.
6mm electronic message centers provide a sharper, higher-resolution display ideal for closer viewing distances. Text, graphics, and images appear crisp and detailed, making this option perfect for pedestrian areas, parking lots, and slower traffic environments. The tighter pixel spacing ensures your content remains clear and easy to read up close.
This option is best for locations where viewers are near the sign and clarity is a priority, delivering a clean, high-definition appearance.
10mm electronic message centers are designed for longer viewing distances and higher-speed traffic. With wider pixel spacing, these displays prioritize visibility and readability from afar, making them ideal for roadside applications, monuments, and pylon signs along busy streets.
This option is best for maximizing visibility at a distance, ensuring your message is bold, legible, and effective for passing traffic.
The cost of an electronic message center can vary based on size, resolution, and installation requirements. For most projects, a typical EMC falls within the following range:
$36,000
$50,000
$81,000
$3,000 - $15,000
$1,500 - $6,000
$28,000
$44,000
$68,000
$3,000 - $15,000
$1,500 - $6,000
The ranges above reflect a typical electronic message center project and are intended to provide a general understanding of pricing.
Every project is unique—factors such as display size, resolution (pixel pitch), site conditions, and installation requirements can impact the final cost. These figures should be used as guidelines, not exact quotes.
