Meeting room displays do a great job, but only when people can actually see them. If you place them in the wrong spot—behind a door, too high, or in a weird corner—they lose their point.
Good placement helps people quickly find available rooms and avoid awkward back-and-forths at the door.
What Stops People from Noticing Displays
Sometimes, displays are added to tick a box. But poor placement means most people don’t even glance at them. If the screen is too small, too high, too dim, or placed on a busy wall with lots of signs, it gets ignored.
A display that’s not in your eye line is almost as bad as not having one.
Why Smart Displays Like Evoko Work Best with Thoughtful Setup
Co-working spaces, offices, and large campuses are now utilizing to streamline room booking. However, for it to work as intended, the display must be positioned where the eyes naturally look.
When placed correctly, Evoko meeting room solutions draw attention with a clear red or green glow—people instantly know if a room is available or occupied. This makes the booking process smooth and saves time for everyone.
Door-Side Is the Sweet Spot
The best spot for a smart display is right outside the meeting room door, at eye level. Not above, not below. The display should be the first thing a person sees when walking toward the room.
This is where Evoko Liso, the company’s smart booking room system, excels. It displays availability in real-time and allows users to book or cancel meetings directly on the screen.
Make It Easy to Spot from a Distance
The glow ring on Evoko Liso changes color—green when free, red when occupied. This feature works best when the display is placed in open view, not hidden behind walls or signs. If people can spot the status from 10 feet away, you’ve nailed the placement.
Good lighting helps too. Don’t place it in a dim hallway or behind glass that reflects too much light. Keep the display clear and visible from common walking paths.
Avoid Clutter Around the Screen
People should be able to see the screen clearly without having to scan through five posters, a fire exit map, or random notices. Avoid placing the display on walls filled with busy visuals. Keep the area clean and minimal, so the screen stands out.
It’s also smart to avoid placing displays right next to each other. If rooms are side by side, provide enough space so that each screen can speak for its own room.
Mounting at the Right Height
The standard height for a meeting room screen should be around 1.5 meters (5 feet) from the ground.
That way, most people—whether tall or short—can see it and interact with it without straining their necks. Evoko Liso screens sit flat against any wall, maintaining a neat and stylish appearance.
This matters even more in high-traffic zones, such as co-working spaces or schools, where people move quickly and need quick information at a glance.
Match the Layout of Your Space
Each office or co-working layout is different. Some have glass walls; others have standard drywall offers mounting options for both.
Whether the room is located in a hallway, corner, or open-plan zone, the goal is to keep the screen within a natural line of sight and make the room status easy to read.
Ask yourself: “If I walk into this area for the first time, would I know where to go?” If the answer is yes, you’ve placed your screen well.

Final Thoughts
A smart screen is only useful if people can see it and use it without effort. That’s why placement is just as important as the display itself. With Evoko meeting room solutions, companies can make their spaces more efficient. However, a little thought about where you place the screen goes a long way in ensuring it gets noticed—and used.
