Choosing the Mount

Use suction or adhesive VESA adapters certified for glass loads. The glass must be tempered or laminated safety glass at least 6 mm thick.
Avoid clamping directly to edges where stress concentrations can cause cracking.


Heat and Sunlight

Direct sunlight passing through glass increases panel temperature. Measure surface heat at midday; anything above 45°C risks damage over time.
Reduce risk by lowering brightness and installing reflective window film behind the mount.

Maintain a small 1–2 cm air gap between glass and the display to allow airflow.


Power and Cable Routing

Run cables through window frames or ceiling conduits rather than leaving them visible. Use white or transparent cable covers for aesthetics.
Ensure the power circuit includes surge protection for lightning or static discharge on exterior glass.


Cleaning and Safety

Train staff never to spray cleaner directly on mounted screens. Spray cloth first, then wipe gently.
If suction mounts are used, check vacuum indicators monthly. Any loss of pressure means remount immediately.


Example

A jewelry retailer installed ELO 17-inch displays on its front window to run night-time product loops. Using aluminum standoffs and reflective glass film, the displays stayed cool even during summer sunlight exposure.


Final Thoughts

Glass installations combine design impact with engineering care. Secure adhesion, heat control, and clean cabling ensure professional results that attract attention safely.
