LED Floor Screen
Interactive Floor Tiles & Dance Floors · P1.5–P6.25 · 2,000 kg/m² Load
The complete LED floor screen collection — three cabinet platforms for permanent venues, close-range retail and rental tours, all walkable, all contactless-interactive — from Excel LED, a trusted LED display manufacturer for global B2B integrators.
LED Floor Screen: The Essentials
What is an LED floor screen? A walkable display built from load-rated floor cabinets that shows video content and reacts to footsteps through a contactless sensor built into each module — no cameras, no pressure pads.
Which series exist? Three cabinet platforms: the Iron Cabinet series (500×1000 mm, cost-efficient permanent install, P2.97–P6.25), the Aluminum-Base COD series (fine-pitch P1.5–P2.6 with a scratch-proof matte surface), and the Die-Cast Rental series (11 kg quick-lock tiles for touring and events).
How much weight can they take? 1.5–2.0 t/m² (about 2,000 kg/m²) across all three platforms (confirmed) — dancing crowds, trolleys and event traffic are within rating.
How do you choose? Viewing distance decides: standing on or beside the floor → aluminum-base COD; venue floor viewed from 2–8 m → iron cabinet; floor that travels every week → die-cast rental.
Which LED Floor Screen Series Fits Your Project?
One decision decides almost everything: where will people stand relative to the floor, and how often will the floor move? The table below maps the two questions to the three series — each link goes to that series’ full specification page.
| Your Situation | Right Series | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Guests stand on or over the floor (retail, showroom, museum, XR) | Aluminum-Base COD Series | Fine pitch P1.5–P2.6 + matte scratch-proof surface for close-range, on-camera floors |
| Permanent venue floor viewed from 2–8 m (club, mall atrium, fixed stage) | Iron Cabinet Series | Lowest cost per m² with 2,000 kg/m² rating and IP54 front — built to stay |
| Floor travels weekly (rental fleet, touring, broadcast, XR sets) | Die-Cast Rental Series | 11 kg quick-lock tiles, magnetic front maintenance, hang / curve / stack |
| Close-range floor that never moves but needs the finest image | Aluminum-Base COD Series | P1.56 at 409,600 dot/m² — the finest interactive floor tile in the line |
The Three LED Floor Screen Series
All three platforms share the same interactive foundation — contactless opto-magnetic sensing built into the module PCB, a 2,000 kg/m² load path that keeps weight off the display components, and full front maintenance — and differ in cabinet material, format and pitch range.
Iron Cabinet Series — Permanent Install
Steel 500×1000×77 mm cabinets at 22.5 kg, P2.97–P6.25, IP54 front / IP53 back. Two cabinets per square metre mean fewer joints and faster installation — the budget-efficient choice for nightclubs, mall atriums and fixed stage floors that stay put for years.
Aluminum-Base COD Series — Fine Pitch
11 kg aluminum-base cabinets at 500×500×73 mm, pitches P1.56 / P1.95 / P2.604 with a COD-encapsulated matte surface (3H surface hardness in manufacturer lab testing). Built for floors that are viewed at arm’s length and photographed — flagship retail, showrooms, museums and XR studios.
Die-Cast Rental Series — Touring & Events
Die-cast aluminum 500×500×82 mm tiles at 11 kg with tool-free quick locks, magnetic front maintenance, adjustable feet and hang / curve / stack capability. One inventory covers dance floors, curved runways, broadcast floors and XR set pieces.

How Interactive LED Floors Sense Footsteps
Every series shares the same sensing approach: an opto-magnetic wireless sensor chip built into each module’s PCB. A step near the surface triggers the content effect — contactless, with nothing protruding from the walking surface (confirmed across the series specification sheets).
The two common alternatives both carry structural compromises. Capacitive designs need an ultra-thin 0.8–1.0 mm mask to sense through, leaving the surface weak and prone to false triggers. Infrared designs misfire under strong stage or sunlight and miss dark objects entirely. The optical-magnetic approach avoids both — which is why it is used across the whole line rather than only on premium models. The full method-by-method comparison is detailed on the fine-pitch floor tiles page.

Where LED Floor Screens Are Used
- Nightclubs and bars — reactive dance floors as the venue centrepiece; iron cabinet series at P3.91–P6.25 for stage-distance viewing.
- Shopping malls and retail — atrium experience zones (iron cabinet) and close-range flagship floors (aluminum-base COD, like the ~300 m² sportswear flagship floor in Shanghai).
- Concerts, tours and broadcast — die-cast rental floors that rig fast and survive the truck; a 110 m² interactive floor served a television studio rental in Japan.
- Museums, showrooms and exhibitions — interactive storytelling floors; P1.95–P2.604 COD tiles keep the image clean at arm’s length.
- XR and virtual production — matte, camera-safe floor layers that composite with LED walls; the P2.6 COD configuration is specified for XR stage floors.
- Custom and creative floors — curved, L-shaped and cut-to-design layouts built from standard tiles, like the custom-shaped floor project in Thailand.

Five Decisions Before Ordering an LED Floor Screen
- Viewing line first. Under 3 m → aluminum-base COD (P1.5–P2.6). 2–8 m → iron cabinet (P2.97–P6.25). Travelling floor → die-cast rental.
- Interactive zones. Sensing is optional per module configuration — mix interactive centre zones with static perimeter areas to control budget.
- Load reality. 2,000 kg/m² covers dancing crowds and trolleys; vehicle displays need factory confirmation case by case.
- Structure work. Recessed installs need a 300–650 mm pit per the manufacturer’s installation plan; surface installs need ramp details. Confirm with your contractor before cabinets ship.
- Content plan. The floor is a synchronous display driven from a control PC — budget the media side with the same seriousness as the hardware.
What Drives the Price of an LED Floor Screen
Four factors dominate: pixel pitch, interactive configuration, structure work (pit, steel, trim — often comparable to the screen itself) and control / content scope. Price the project per square metre including structure and control, not just bare cabinets.

LED Floor Screen FAQ
Q1What is an LED floor screen?
A walkable LED display built from load-rated floor cabinets that plays video content and reacts to footsteps via a contactless sensor built into each module’s PCB. Excel LED’s collection spans three cabinet platforms — iron for permanent venues, aluminum-base COD for fine pitch, die-cast for rental — from P1.5 to P6.25.
Q2Which floor series should I choose?
Match the closest viewing line and mobility need: guests standing on or beside the floor → aluminum-base COD; permanent venue floor viewed from a few metres → iron cabinet; a floor that travels weekly → die-cast rental. The selection table on this page maps specific situations to each series.
Q3How much weight can an LED floor screen hold?
All three series are rated 1.5–2.0 t/m² (about 2,000 kg/m²), with the load path routed through the cabinet structure so display components carry no weight. The die-cast series has a manufacturer-stated reinforced option up to 3,000 kg/m² — confirm it in writing for your configuration.
Q4Can the floor be used outdoors?
Depends on the series: the iron cabinet carries IP54 front / IP53 back, and the die-cast series is manufacturer-stated at IP65 front / IP54 back, both covering spills and semi-exposed event use on the walking surface. The fine-pitch COD tiles are IP31 — indoor-rated. Permanent rain-exposed outdoor floors need a factory-confirmed outdoor configuration.
Q5Is the interactivity optional?
Yes — Interactive and Non-Interactive configurations are optional, and zones can be mixed within one floor: an interactive centre dance floor with non-interactive perimeter advertising is a common split. Non-interactive areas reduce cost where reaction to footsteps has no value.
Q6How do you repair a module in an installed floor?
From the front, on all three series. Modules are removable through the walking surface and the control system reports the faulty module’s coordinates. Keep 2–4 spare modules per 100 m² on site as a preliminary planning rule, adjusted to your usage intensity.
Q7How is an LED floor screen installed?
Two methods across the line: rail installation or adjustable feet. Recessed installs follow the manufacturer’s installation plan — typically a 300–650 mm pit with a level steel structure and 130–170 mm clearance. Each series page details its own installation workflow with figures.
Q8What warranty applies?
Excel LED provides a 2-year warranty as standard on floor screen projects, covering LEDs, driver ICs and power supplies. Factory aging reports ship with every floor, and extended terms can be discussed for permanent installations — ask with your quotation.
Q9LED floor screen or interactive projection — which is better?
Projection is cheaper per square metre but fails in ambient light and carries no load. An LED floor screen delivers full brightness under stage lighting, carries real foot traffic at 2,000 kg/m², and runs all day. For permanent venue floors in lit environments, LED wins; projection suits dark rooms with light traffic and tight budgets.
Q10Can I see the specification sheets before buying?
Yes — request the datasheet for your target series and pitch through the quote form below, and it comes back with a real quotation response including cabinet drawings and per-pitch electrical detail, so your engineering team can review before committing.
LED Floor Screen Collection — One Line, Three Platforms
Whether the floor stays in a club, anchors a flagship store, or tours with a rental fleet, the same interactive foundation applies: 2,000 kg/m² load paths, contactless opto-magnetic sensing and full front maintenance.
