There are different perspectives out there when it comes to assembling things in this business, whether they are going to be flown over people’s heads or whether they are going on your wall in your office. Do you know who made the frame that your expensive TV is mounted to? Was it on sale at the big-box store where you bought it? No, you bought your gear at the right place and you know exactly who made the mounting hardware and when and what it is rated for. Right? It’ll come down to cost eventually. It always does. There’s the cost to engineer all this stuff – from the frames to the panels to the hardware. There’s the cost to rent it, or sub-rent it, as the case often is. And finally, there’s what your liability is worth.
