Whether the installation service provided by the LED display screen lessor is included in the rental fee depends on the specific contract agreement. However, two common models exist in industry practice, which are analyzed in detail below:
Installation Service Included Model
In some LED display screen rental agreements, the lessor will include the installation service in the total price quote.
For example, one company explicitly states in its service offerings that "professional technicians will be fully responsible for the installation, commissioning, disassembly, on-site maintenance, and operation of the LED display screen," without separately listing the installation fee.
This type of service typically targets standardized rental scenarios with relatively fixed installation processes. The lessor reduces costs through scaled operations, thus including the installation service as a value-added item in the rental fee.
Installation Service Not Included Model
In most cases, LED display screen rental fees are itemized. According to industry standards, the rental fee typically includes screen rental, transportation, and installation and base construction costs, with installation costs listed separately.
For example, one contract template explicitly states, "Installation and base construction costs include labor and material costs related to screen base construction and equipment installation, and are included in the total price quote." However, some cases indicate that installation costs are calculated separately based on actual costs.
This model is common in scenarios requiring high customization, such as installing custom-shaped screens or working at height. The lessor must invest additional manpower and resources based on on-site conditions.
Industry Recommendations and Contract Key Points
Cost Details Verification: According to industry practices by 2025, formal lease contracts will clearly specify the cost structure of each fee, including whether installation services are included, through a "Detailed Lease Fee Schedule." It is recommended that the lessee request a detailed quote from the lessor to avoid verbal agreements.
Service Scope Confirmation: Even if the contract includes installation fees, the scope of these services must be clearly defined. For example, whether derivative services such as commissioning, rehearsal support, and emergency repairs are included.
In one case, the rehearsal fee for the LED screen was charged separately based on "total lease amount / number of lease days x 50%." These details should be agreed upon in advance.
Breach of Contract Liability Clause: Following industry practice, the contract should stipulate compensation for interrupted use due to installation delays.
For example, one contract stipulates, "If Party B's equipment/personnel cannot enter the site due to issues with documentation or entry procedures, Party A shall bear all liability and financial losses."
Clear acceptance criteria: It's recommended to agree on a post-installation acceptance process, including display quality testing and structural safety checks.
The product description for a rental LED screen emphasizes "cabinet installation accuracy of 0.1mm." These technical parameters can serve as a reference for acceptance.
