Commercial Menu Board & Digital Signage Installation in Atlanta | Business Display Mounting
Your business’s digital displays are more than screens—they’re powerful communication tools that influence customer decisions, reinforce your brand, and streamline operations. Whether you’re installing menu boards at your restaurant, promotional displays in your retail space, or informational signage in your office lobby, professional installation ensures your investment works as hard as you do.
At Express Mounting, we provide commercial-grade installation services for businesses throughout Metro Atlanta. We understand that commercial environments demand different considerations than residential—tighter timelines, after-hours work, building code compliance, and displays that run continuously without failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install during business hours or after hours?
We accommodate your schedule. Most commercial clients prefer after-hours installation to avoid business disruption. We offer evening and weekend installation at no additional charge.
Can you work with our AV integrator or IT department?
We work seamlessly with your existing technology vendors. We can handle the physical installation while coordinating with your team on network, content, and integration requirements.
What type of displays should I buy for commercial use?
Consumer TVs aren’t designed for 12+ hour daily operation. We recommend commercial-grade displays from Samsung, LG, NEC, or similar manufacturers. These offer longer warranties, higher brightness, and features like automatic power scheduling.
Do you provide the displays or just installation?
Both. We can supply commercial displays at competitive prices, or we can install equipment you’ve already purchased. Either way, you get professional installation.
How long does commercial installation take?
Single displays: 1-2 hours. Menu board systems: 3-4 hours. Multi-TV sports bar installations: typically one full day. Video walls: 1-2 days depending on configuration.
Do you service the displays after installation?
We offer ongoing maintenance agreements for commercial clients. This includes regular inspections, cleaning, firmware updates, and priority service for any issues.
Can you integrate with our existing point-of-sale system?
We work with most major POS systems for menu board integration. This allows automatic price updates and menu changes. We’ll coordinate with your POS provider as needed.
What about outdoor digital signage?
We install outdoor-rated displays and enclosures for drive-thrus, patios, and storefront windows. These require specialized equipment but are well within our capabilities.
