Retail AV Installation
Retailers know their space has to do a lot at once: set the mood, move people through, and hold the brand steady from the flagship to the newest site. What usually gets in the way is not one big failure but AV added piece by piece over the years, never quite joined up.
We at Acoustic Pixel understand that, and it is the work we do best: as an audio visual installation company, we design, install and support retail AV as one connected system, in-store audio, digital signage and video walls, held to a single standard across every store. One in-house team looks after all of it, from the first survey to long-term support, with more than 200 projects delivered across the North of England and nationally.
- In-house team, survey to support
- 12-month warranty as standard
- 200+ projects across the North
Everything your store needs, from one team.

Design, supply, installation and support, delivered to one standard across every store, with nothing handed to a subcontractor.
The promotion still showing from last season.
If any of these feel familiar, you are far from alone, and every one of them is avoidable.
- Background music too loud at the till and inaudible at the back of the shop.
- Screens showing last season's promotion because updating them is a chore.
- Signage and audio that look and sound different in every store.
- A tangle of remotes and boxes that only one staff member understands.
- Displays that freeze or go dark in the middle of trading.
- No clear number to call when a screen fails on a launch day.
It starts with your space, and does not end at handover.
Sound that fits the floor.
Because we come from acoustics, we place commercial-grade speakers with care, then set levels so the music feels right across the whole floor and announcements are always clear, from the window to the fitting rooms.
One accountable team, not a chain of suppliers.
The people who design your system are the ones who install and support it. We do not subcontract your rollout to whoever is nearest, so nothing falls between hands and you always know who to call.
The same standard in every store.
One integrator and one specification means every store looks, sounds and behaves the same, and a new site opens to the same standard as your flagship.
And we stay a call away.
Every install comes with a 12-month warranty as standard, one named point of contact and remote management across the estate, so when you need us you reach the people who already know your stores.
Trained, and working with brands you already trust.

We are based in Middlesbrough and work right across the North of England, and we can deliver multi-site projects nationally. For retail groups and brands with stores in more than one region, we design a single retail standard and roll it out everywhere, so every store looks, sounds and behaves the same, a new opening matches your flagship, and you have one team and one point of contact for the whole estate.

Frequently asked questions.
What is a multi-zone audio and video system?
A multi-zone audio and video system lets you distribute clear sound and on-screen content across different areas of your store, whether that is the shop floor, window, fitting rooms or a feature wall. You can run the same audio and content throughout, or control individual zones independently, all from a simple central interface, across one store or your whole estate.
Can you install in an existing store?
Yes. For new stores and fit-outs, we design fully integrated systems that are built into the space from the start. For existing stores, we provide retrofit solutions that minimise disruption while respecting your layout and brand, and we work around your trading hours.
How much does a retail AV system cost?
Every store is different in size, layout and requirements. Cost turns on the number of zones and screens, the infrastructure needed and the level of integration, so we work in broad bands at proposal stage and confirm a figure once we have surveyed. Following an initial consultation, we provide a clear and detailed proposal with no obligation.
Can audio and video be controlled centrally?
Yes. Systems can be designed with centralised control, allowing your team to manage audio, signage and screens across the store, or across every store, from a simple, intuitive interface. This reduces complexity and makes day-to-day operation straightforward for staff.
How long does installation take?
Smaller upgrades may be completed within a day. Larger, fully integrated systems usually take between 2 to 5 days, depending on the size of the store and the scope of work, and we plan around your trading hours. A clear timeline is provided before installation begins.
What areas do you cover?
We operate across the North of England and support projects throughout the UK. If you are unsure whether we cover your area, please get in touch and we will be happy to discuss your requirements.
Let's start with a look at your space.
Whether it is one store or a national rollout, a free AV assessment is the easiest first step, no obligation and no hard sell. We will see the space, understand your brand and how customers move, and set out clear options.
