Elevators are no longer just for vertical transport. The TFT display is now an important way for people to get information, for brands to connect with their customers, and for smart systems to operate. It is very useful in making the user experience better and increasing efficiency.

What Is an Elevator TFT Display?

An elevator TFT display is a special screen used in elevators to show floor status, direction indicators, operating information, advertisements, emergency notices, and multimedia content.

Compared with traditional segment LCDs or LED indicators, TFT displays provide:

Full-color, high-resolution visuals

Flexible UI and graphic display capability

Better readability and modern appearance

These advantages make TFT displays the preferred choice for high-end residential, commercial, and smart elevator systems.

Typical Applications of Elevator TFT Displays

Elevator TFT displays are widely deployed in different locations within an elevator system, including:

Car operating panels (COP): Floor numbers, direction arrows, system status

Landing operating panels (LOP): Elevator arrival information and call status

Inside cabin displays: Multimedia content, advertisements, building information

Smart elevator systems: IoT-connected displays for real-time data and interaction

Different application positions often require different sizes, brightness levels, interfaces, and mechanical designs.

Key Technical Requirements for Elevator TFT Displays

Elevator environments impose specific technical demands on displays. A reliable elevator TFT display should meet the following requirements:

Wide viewing angle for clear visibility from different positions

High brightness to ensure readability under strong ambient light

Stable performance under long working hours

Wide operating temperature range suitable for various climates

Long lifecycle and high reliability for maintenance cost reduction

Meeting these requirements often means making a lot of custom changes to products instead of buying standard ones.

Custom Elevator TFT Display Services

To address diverse elevator project needs, we provide custom elevator TFT display solutions, covering both display and system-level customization.

Our customization capabilities include:

Custom sizes and shapes

From small-size displays to wide or bar-type TFT panels optimized for elevator panels.

Interface customization

Support for RGB, LVDS, MIPI, HDMI, and other interfaces to match different control boards.

Brightness and optical tuning

Customized backlight design for indoor, semi-outdoor, or high-ambient-light environments.

Touch integration

Optional capacitive or resistive touch panels for interactive elevator applications.

Mechanical and structural customization

Bezel design, mounting method, and thickness tailored to elevator panel structures.

Firmware and display tuning support

Assistance with display initialization, timing matching, and system integration.

Advantages of Custom Elevator TFT Displays

Choosing a custom elevator TFT display offers several long-term benefits:

Better fit with elevator design and industrial aesthetics

Improved user experience and brand differentiation

Optimized performance and power consumption

Reduced system integration risks

Higher overall project reliability

For elevator manufacturers, system integrators, and smart building solution providers, customisation is often the best way to save money over the product lifecycle.

Conclusion

Elevators are becoming smarter and more digital, and the TFT display is an important part of this. Custom TFT displays are better than standard displays because they are more flexible, reliable and good value for money.

We combine professional display technology with a range of customisation services. This helps our customers build elevator display systems that are not only functional, but also look good, are strong, and can be upgraded in the future.
