## What is a vertical grill menu board?

A grill menu board is the screen listing skewers and grilled plates with prices. Run on a TV it loops the shop's name, the grill list with prices, one platter offer and the hours, so what is on the coals tonight is what the screen says.

A charcoal grill runs this on a TV stood on its end: the venue, the priced list, one offer and the hours.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why stand a TV on its end for a charcoal grill?

Because the wall usually decides. A charcoal grill tends to sit against a pillar, a narrow strip beside a doorway or a window that is taller than it is wide, and a landscape panel there either overhangs or shrinks to fit. A portrait board reads as one column top to bottom, which suits a list. What it is not is a rotated landscape design: turning a wide layout on its side re-wraps every line, so the board is authored in the shape the screen is mounted in.

### How do I mount a screen in portrait safely?

Three checks before drilling. The bracket has to allow rotation, which most VESA plates do but some fixed ones do not. The panel itself has to be rated for portrait: many consumer TVs are not, because heat rises differently through a rotated panel and the warranty often says so in a line people skip. And the cables have to leave the set without a tight bend at the new bottom edge. A commercial signage panel is usually rated for both orientations, which is one of the real things the premium buys.

### What should a kebab shop board show late at night?

Fewer lines, bigger type, and the platter. Late trade is decided fast and often from further back in a queue that is not reading carefully, so a board that works at eleven at night is not the board that works at lunch. The practical version is one loop with a short night slide added, rather than two boards to maintain.

### Should the board show a picture of the food?

One good picture on the offer slide, and none on the price list. A photograph behind a price list is the most common reason a board becomes unreadable: the type sits on a busy image, the contrast collapses, and the words that carry the money are the first thing lost. If a picture is doing work, give it a slide of its own where it is not fighting anything.
