What it does
GLMedia can supply the LED, its original manufacturer support hardware and the deployment infrastructure around it. Flown and ground-supported systems are selected from the venue rules, approved loads, access, schedule and operating plan.
The screen support is planned with the same care as the LED canvas. GLMedia can deploy a flown wall, an original Unilumin ground-support system or a truss-based structure according to the venue and approved design.
Owned one-ton entertainment chain hoists, controllers, original Unilumin hanging bumpers, certified slings and shackles, and certified GLMedia riggers can be included in the contracted scope. Venue-appointed or licensed specialists are integrated when required.
Original Unilumin ground-support frames, quick connections, rear braces, service platforms and guardrails allow several technicians to work in parallel across a large screen. GLMedia owns enough compatible original platform modules to position a rear service platform approximately every 2 m along an approved Unilumin ground-stacked configuration, helping distribute qualified technicians across wide builds. This can reduce serial work from a single ladder or lift and shorten installation and strike.
Owned structural inventory includes Tyler Truss 12x12 bolt-together sections in 10 ft, 8 ft and 5 ft lengths with cubes, bases, bolt sets and dedicated dollies; James Thomas Engineering (Thomas Truss) 12x12 sections; and Global Truss components. ModTruss 6x6 aluminum adds a separate modular structural family. Exact series, lengths, connection type and quantities are confirmed for the quote, and components from different manufacturers are not assumed interchangeable.
Owned ModTruss 6x6 aluminum components use bolted connectivity on all six sides, creating a flexible structural toolkit for LED support, scenic frames, work platforms and custom technical layouts.
Safety and approval: equipment ownership does not replace the rigging plot, load review, manufacturer limits, venue approval, engineering or licensed work required for the specific project.
For large-format LED walls, the support and assembly method can influence the production schedule as much as the number of panels. GLMedia stocks original Unilumin ground-support systems—also described as ground-stacked LED support when the wall is built from the floor—for compatible Unilumin LED families. Using the manufacturer’s original rear frames, braces, quick connections, service platforms and guardrails provides a documented, manufacturer-matched system basis instead of an improvised generic structure. The modular architecture can reduce repeated handling and allow qualified technicians to work simultaneously on cabinet connection, alignment, power, data and inspection. GLMedia owns enough compatible original platform modules to position a rear service platform approximately every 2 m along an approved Unilumin ground-stacked configuration, helping distribute qualified technicians across wide builds. This can shorten load-in, setup and strike, reduce dependence on one ladder or lift, and maintain organized rear access during service. Original hardware supports compatibility and technical traceability; the final configuration still follows the panel model, wall height, loads, floor capacity, ballast or anchoring, egress, fall protection, engineering and venue approval.
With rear support frames, quick connections and continuous access behind the wall, technicians can be assigned to different sections of a large canvas at the same time. Cabinet connection, data and power dressing, alignment, inspection and service preparation do not have to wait for one ladder or one lift to move from bay to bay. The result can be a shorter build and strike window, especially on wide ballroom, convention and arena screens.
Compatible Unilumin ground-support structures can incorporate rear platforms, braces and guardrails so qualified technicians have a defined work position instead of repeatedly climbing and repositioning loose ladders. This can reduce exposure to ladder work, improve access to upper cabinets and cable paths, and support more orderly inspection and maintenance. The final work-at-height method, fall protection and crew limits still follow the approved plan and venue rules.
Modular Unilumin support components and 6x6 aluminum ModTruss can travel in shorter sections than 10 ft truss. That may make a service elevator usable and remove the need for a forklift or material lift, but only after checking the complete route. We need the clear door opening, elevator cab dimensions and rated capacity, plus corridor turns and floor-protection requirements. Use the dimensions and loaded weights of the actual cases and components: a piece that fits inside the elevator may still be impossible to turn through its doorway.
Planning requirement: GLMedia reviews loading dock access, door and elevator dimensions, cab weight limits, hallway turns, ballroom access, approved work hours, floor protection and the setup/strike window before selecting long truss, modular structure, flown support or ground support.

Frequently asked
Practical answers for hotels, convention centers, arenas and production partners.
GLMedia owns one-ton MODE entertainment chain hoists, controllers, original Unilumin hanging bumpers, certified lifting accessories including slings and shackles, and compatible LED inventory. Certified GLMedia riggers are available for the contracted scope; venue-appointed or licensed providers are integrated when required by the venue or jurisdiction.
Yes, when the approved design and venue conditions allow it. Original Unilumin ground-support components, rear frames, platforms, guardrails and quick connections can create organized rear access for multiple qualified technicians and reduce dependence on ladders or lifts. GLMedia owns enough compatible original platform modules to position a rear service platform approximately every 2 m along an approved Unilumin ground-stacked configuration, helping distribute qualified technicians across wide builds. Dimensions, ballast, floor loading, egress, fall protection and engineering are reviewed per project.
It may be possible with modular components, but it depends on the route. Unilumin ground-support components and 6x6 aluminum ModTruss can be transported in shorter sections than 10 ft truss. Check the loading area, clear door openings, corridor turns, elevator cab dimensions and rated capacity against the actual cases and components. Send the venue’s loading rules and available elevator times as well. This can reduce handling and may avoid a forklift or material lift where access permits; we confirm the method after the access review.

Tell us the event date and venue
A wall outlet may be enough for a small setup; it is not enough information to plan a full system. We need the equipment list and the venue’s available voltage, circuit capacity, connector types and power locations. Tell us whether catering or other equipment shares those circuits. LED, processing, audio and lighting all belong in the load review. If you do not have the electrical details, put us in touch with the venue’s technical contact. We identify the circuits and distribution needed for the selected equipment and coordinate connections with the venue and qualified personnel, subject to the venue’s rules.
Not every project needs a site visit before an initial quote. Current plans and photos can help us review screen position, access and power locations. Include the loading area, service elevator and the route into the room, not just the stage. Restricted access, unusual screen shapes, outdoor structures or permanent installations may need an on-site review. We identify what the documents leave unresolved and agree on the visit’s purpose, timing and any charge in advance. A visit does not replace structural or electrical approvals required for the installation.
The organizer or venue confirms the registration process and submission deadline. We coordinate the crew information required for our work, while approval remains with the responsible event or security team. Confirm the service entrance, check-in location, permitted hours and unloading authorization. Guest tickets and event admission are separate from technical crew credentials.
