LED wall weight calculator

Enter the wall size and a kg/m² figure and you get the total panel weight, the rigging point count and the load per point with a 1.2 dynamic factor. Pick a real panel to use its datasheet weight instead of a guess. Every figure here is a plan; a competent rigger verifies before anything flies.

Bumpers, spares and cases add real weight on top, and the planner derives them from your stock. Point counts and loads must be verified by a competent rigger before anything leaves the ground.

LED wall weight, answered

How much does an LED wall weigh?

Panels in the database run from 9 kg/m² (ROE Visual Vanish V8S, a 1000 × 1000 mm rental cabinet) to 56 kg/m² (SiliconCore Magnolia 1.5, a 480 × 270 mm fixed-install cabinet); the middle half of the indoor rental panels sits between 24 and 32 kg/m². An 8 × 4.5 m wall at 28 kg/m² is roughly 1,000 kg before bumpers and rigging hardware.

How many rigging points does an LED wall need?

The common planning rule is one point per three metres of wall width, minimum two. Venue steel, truss layout and hoist availability move the real answer, and the final rig must be verified by a competent rigger.

What is a dynamic factor and why multiply by 1.2?

Loads are not static: hoists start and stop, and a moving wall briefly loads its points beyond their static share. Planning multiplies static per-point load by a dynamic factor, commonly 1.2, before comparing against hoist ratings and venue limits.

Bumpers, hang limits and hardware ratios are in the rigging guide. Also: pixels & size, power & circuits.
