Digital Menu Board Installation
Across Every Location.
SRS Networks installs, cables, and activates indoor and drive-thru digital menu boards for multi-site restaurants and QSR chains across all 48 contiguous states — from a single store to a national rollout.
Vendor-agnostic displays. Sunlight-readable drive-thru screens. Network and CMS in scope. Every board live and updatable before you open.
Digital menu board installation is the mounting, cabling, and activation of the displays, media players, and network behind a restaurant's digital menus — indoor menu walls, drive-thru and outdoor displays, the players that drive them, and the Cat6 drops that let you push price and menu changes from one dashboard instead of one screen at a time.
SRS Networks is a nationwide IT infrastructure deployment partner headquartered in Salinas, California, installing digital signage, point-of-sale, and low-voltage systems for multi-site restaurants and QSR chains across all 48 contiguous states since 1996 — a separate business from any local Salinas IT services provider. We've completed 500+ deployments across 5,000+ sites with in-house W-2 leads, a vetted W-9 subcontractor bench, West and East Coast staging facilities, and every site tracked live in our Project Command Center.
A Menu Board Program Lives or Dies on the Details
The display is the easy part. Outdoor ratings, the network behind the screen, and store-to-store consistency are what separate a clean rollout from a callback list.
Dead Screens During the Lunch Rush
A blank menu board at peak is lost orders and a manager on hold with a vendor who can't roll a tech for days. Without a real break-fix SLA, one dead display costs a shift of sales.
Drive-Thru Displays That Don't Survive Outdoors
Indoor panels dropped into a drive-thru wash out in sunlight and quit in the cold. The wrong display rating becomes a callback within the first heat wave.
No Two Locations Look the Same
When a different local AV shop installs each store, brightness, mounting height, and bezel gaps drift location to location. The brand looks inconsistent on camera and in person.
Boards You Can't Update Remotely
Displays installed with no network — or sitting on the store's flat network — turn every price change into a truck roll. The whole point of digital is one-dashboard updates.
One Partner. Every Board
Live and Updatable.
SRS Networks is a single point of contact for your entire menu board program — from site survey and pre-staging through go-live. We run in-house W-2 leads backed by a vetted W-9 subcontractor bench, not a 1099 labor marketplace, so the tech who shows up is insured, audited, and held to one install standard at every location.
The Whole Board,
Not Just the Screen
From the network drop behind the wall to the sunlight-readable panel at the drive-thru, SRS Networks installs and tests every part of the menu board.
Indoor Menu Board Displays
Commercial-grade displays mounted above the counter — single screens to multi-panel menu walls — leveled, secured, and brightness-matched across the run.
Drive-Thru & Outdoor Displays
Sunlight-readable, high-brightness outdoor displays for drive-thru lanes — rated for sun and temperature, with the enclosures and power most installers skip.
Media Players & CMS Connectivity
The player behind each screen installed, networked, and connected to your content management system so menus update from one dashboard, not one screen at a time.
Display Mounting & Enclosures
Structural mounts, brackets, and tamper-resistant enclosures sized to the wall and the display — not whatever bracket happened to ship in the box.
Network & Power Cabling
The Cat6 drops, PoE, and power each display and player needs — pulled, terminated, and certified — so a board never goes dark for a network reason.
Staging, Pre-Config & Go-Live
Players imaged and content-loaded at staging, displays labeled per location, and store-by-store cutovers so the boards are live before you open the doors.
Every display run rides on certified cabling — see our data cabling services for the network standard behind the screens, or our digital signage networks for larger signage programs.
What you actually get when you hand us a multi-site menu board rollout
You have twenty, forty, sixty restaurants to bring online, and you do not want to manage a different AV shop in every metro. So you hand us a site list and a scope — screens per location, indoor versus drive-thru, your CMS, and your install windows — and from there you talk to one project manager. Your store in Ohio gets the same mounting height, the same brightness, and the same labeling as your flagship in California, because one SRS standard travels with the crew instead of resetting at each location.
Drop-shipping displays straight to the restaurant fails roughly one in six times — wrong address, locked dock, no signature, the manager never told the front a pallet was coming — and a 55-inch panel is exactly the kind of fragile freight that gets refused or arrives cracked. We learned that across a few hundred direct-to-site shipments we tracked over a year. Every failed receipt is a return trip and a rescheduled crew. So we route displays through staging first, load the media players with your content, label them per location, and ship configured to a named recipient. Drop-ship is faster on one store. Pre-staging wins at volume.
When a board does go dark, response time is mostly dispatch latency, not drive distance: a tech 200 miles out with a 15-minute dispatch desk beats a local shop that takes 90 minutes to assign the ticket. That is why we run P1 4-hour and P2 next-day onsite nationwide instead of leaning on a single local crew. Here is when we are not your fit, though: one restaurant, one metro, a couple of screens — hire a local AV installer, because under a 50-mile radius drive time wins and our coordination overhead doesn't pay back until you are rolling across multiple sites. We will tell you that on the scoping call.
Local AV Shop vs. SRS Networks
A menu board program is only as good as the display rating, the network behind it, and who answers when it goes dark. See what changes at multi-site scale.
