Outdoor TV Options Built for Missouri Climate

Missouri's weather can present unique challenges for electronics. Harsh wind, extreme temperatures, and moisture can make your patio unsafe and reduce the lifespan of your devices—unless you have the right equipment installed!

Our team specializes in selecting and installing premium outdoor-rated TV displays designed to perform in Ladue's variable weather conditions. From The Terrace by Samsung to SunBriteTV's Signature Series, you can enjoy exceptional brightness (up to 2,000 nits) that remains visible even in direct sunlight. There are displays available for full-sun, partial-sun, and full-shade environments, so there’s surely an option that will suit your porch and poolside areas!

For pool areas, we position these IP55-rated displays to minimize glare while ensuring they're protected from water exposure. Unlike consumer-grade televisions that quickly fail outdoors, these specialized units can withstand humidity, temperature fluctuations, and even insect intrusion—concerns that many homeowners don't consider until it’s too late and they’re faced with the situation.

Our installation team conceals wiring and mounting hardware so your open-air entertainment areas maintain the same refined aesthetic as your home's interior spaces. We can incorporate these displays above outdoor fireplaces, on custom stonework, or under pergolas.

Immersive Audio Systems Disappear into Landscaping

A truly exceptional entertainment experience beneath the sun’s warming rays requires audio that surrounds your guests without obtrusive speakers disrupting your landscape design. Using speakers from high-performance brands like Sonance, we can design and install powerful systems that deliver extraordinary sound while blending visually into your gardens and seating areas.

We strategically position buried subwoofers to provide rich bass response while satellite speakers camouflage as landscape lighting to deliver crisp, clear mid- and high-frequencies throughout your property. For pool areas and patios, marine-grade components protect delicate interior electronics while still complementing your home's exterior. Whether it’s a barbecue or pool party, you and your guests can enjoy balanced sound coverage across conversation areas, with volume levels never too loud or too soft.

Strategic Design Blends Day and Night Lighting Needs

Outdoor spaces should be as captivating after sunset as during daylight hours. Beyond the audio and video components, the Elite team can incorporate sophisticated lighting systems that highlight your home’s architectural features, illuminate pathways, and create the perfect ambiance for any gathering. We implement a layered approach with the following:

• Pathlighting to guide guests safely through the property
• Architectural lighting to highlight your home's distinctive features
• Ambient lighting using string lights or lanterns in dining and conversation areas
• Accent lighting to showcase landscaping elements and water features

We program unique lighting scenes that automatically adjust to create the ideal atmosphere, whether you're hosting an intimate dinner or a larger celebration. Our systems integrate seamlessly with audio and video, so all it takes is a button tap to transform your backyard!

Seamless Control Systems for Effortless Entertainment

What truly distinguishes Elite Technology Solutions is our commitment to creating technology experiences that require zero technical expertise to operate. Our custom-programmed control systems unite all aspects of your outdoor systems—allowing you to adjust audio, video, lighting, and other features from a single, intuitive interface on your smartphone or tablet.
