Not only is there the risk of water splashing, but as washrooms are unsupervised locations, there is also the risk of vandalism to think about\u2014especially in a busy city centre bar or nightclub.<\/p>\n<p>A good solution is a form of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.armagard.co.uk\">TV enclosure<\/a>; these will protect the screen from water splashes but will also prevent damage caused by impact and attempts at vandalism.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.armagard.co.uk\/lcd-enclosure\/lcd-enclosure.html\">LCD enclosures<\/a> are a secure and resistant method of deploying LCD TVS in all sorts of locations, not just washrooms, and are commonly used as outdoor digital signage protection and for enabling information screens and TVs to be used outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digital signage Advertising is most effective when there is a captive audience.
