LED-projected signage is transforming workplace safety, but only when done right.
At Clarity, we’ve installed LED projectors across warehouses, factories and high-risk logistics environments throughout the UK. They’re game-changing when it comes to visibility, engagement, and reducing human error. But we’ve also seen where things can go wrong.
Whether you’ve been burned by a poor-quality install or are considering LED projection for the first time, this guide walks you through the top 5 problems with LED projectors, and how to avoid them.
You’ll also learn how we support you every step of the way, from specification to install.
Traditional signage and painted floor markings fade into the background. Quite literally. Over time, employees stop noticing static signs and safety messaging loses impact.
LED projection solves that. A bright, animated or motion-activated floor sign immediately grabs attention, and can’t be scratched, scuffed or worn away.
But not all projectors are built the same. And unfortunately, many on the market fall short in key areas.
Projectors are precision-engineered devices with sensitive optics and electronics. DIY installations or rushed setups often lead to damage, misalignment or premature failure.
At Clarity, we offer full installation support and on-site surveys, ensuring your projector is installed safely, calibrated correctly, and fully covered under our five-year warranty. If we install it, we take responsibility.

Projector brightness needs to match your environment. A 25W projector may be perfect in a dim corridor, but it will be invisible in a high-bay warehouse under intense lighting.
Our experts measure lux levels, mounting heights and projection distances to specify the right power output for every space; from small pedestrian crossings to wide forklift zones.
Colours like red or blue can perform poorly depending on ambient light and floor colour. We've tested hundreds of combinations and know which ones cut through glare and stand out, especially when safety is on the line.
Not sure which colour to choose? We’ll advise based on your space, lighting, and intended application.
A bigger projector isn’t always better — but in high-traffic areas, a compact unit might not deliver the brightness or coverage you need.
Clarity supplies a range of projector sizes and beam angles to suit your exact layout. And because our models are thermally optimised, they won’t overheat or degrade over time.
Many low-cost projectors (especially those imported from China) only last months — even under normal usage. They’re cheaper for a reason: poor components, no support, and zero aftercare.
Our Italian-manufactured systems are built for industrial use, with long-life LEDs, IP-rated casings, and a five-year guarantee. That means less downtime, less waste, and long-term value.
Not sure what power you need? What height to mount it at? What surface will work best?
That’s where we come in.
Our team handles everything from on-site surveys and spec advice to full installation and custom lens design. We help you pick a solution that works now, and lasts long into the future.
