ELECTRO-MECH SCOREBOARD COMPANY

Electro-Mech Scoreboards for Schools, Parks and Colleges

Electro-Mech scoreboards are LED scoring displays built in Wrightsville, Georgia, since 1963 for schools, parks, colleges, churches, and athletic facilities. The range covers football, basketball, baseball, softball, soccer, hockey, and multi-sport venues, plus play clocks and timers. Every board carries a five-year limited warranty.

That warranty runs from the invoice date, and toll-free technical support stays available for the life of the product. For a purchase that sits on a pole for fifteen seasons, those two facts matter more than the sticker price. Hamilton Home Fitness is an authorized Electro-Mech dealer shipping nationwide from Tennessee.

Shop Electro-Mech by Application

Start by narrowing down to your sport and installation type, because that single choice eliminates most of the 180-plus models in the catalog. Electro-Mech builds sport-specific layouts rather than one generic board with stickers over the unused windows.

Available configurations include:

• Football scoreboards
• Basketball scoreboards
• Baseball and softball scoreboards
• Soccer scoreboards
• Hockey scoreboards
• Indoor scoreboards
• Outdoor scoreboards
• Play clocks, shot clocks, and timers
• Practice and training timers

Can one scoreboard cover more than one sport? Yes. Multi-sport indoor boards are configured for several games in one cabinet, which suits gyms running basketball, volleyball, and wrestling through a single season. A dedicated single-sport board still wins when you need sport-specific data like pitch count or a shot clock tied to the main display.

Why Facilities Choose Electro-Mech

The draw is durability engineering that survives weather and daily use, not a spec sheet arms race. Each build choice traces back to a real ownership problem.

Rust-free extruded aluminum cabinets remove the corrosion failure that kills steel boards on humid or coastal fields. Automotive-grade baked-on enamel keeps the face looking current after a decade of sun. LED circuit boards are conformally coated on outdoor models, so moisture cannot creep into the electronics behind the digits.

Readability gets the same treatment. You choose amber or red LED digits, and LX-series consoles offer 50 brightness levels, so a board that reads cleanly at a 7 p.m. kickoff does not blind the front row at a Saturday morning game.

How to Spec the Right Scoreboard

Six decisions determine your model, and getting them in order saves a costly change order later. Work through sport, indoor or outdoor placement, display size, control system, mounting method, and customization—in that sequence.

Do I need a wired or wireless scoreboard control? Wireless costs more upfront but skips trenching cable from the press box to the board. On an existing field where you would otherwise cut concrete or turf, the ScoreLink option often lands cheaper once site work is priced in.

How much do Electro-Mech scoreboards cost? Pricing moves with cabinet size, digit height, sport-specific features, electronic team names, wireless control, and mounting. A compact practice timer and a stadium football board sit in different budget worlds, so a quote against your actual layout beats any published range.

How long do LED scoreboards last? LED displays are rated in the range of 100,000 hours and draw substantially less power than the incandescent boards they replace. There are no bulbs to swap, which removes the recurring lift-and-ladder maintenance older boards demanded.

Measure your viewing distance before you shortlist. A board sized for a 200-foot sightline reads poorly from the top row of a deeper stand, and digit height is the spec that fixes it.

Customization and Long-Term Value

Configuration is where a scoreboard stops looking generic and starts looking like your program. Depending on the model, you can specify custom color choices, sponsor-ready ID panels, decorative truss upgrades, and electronic team names.

Electronic team names replace the fixed GUEST and HOME captions with real school, town, or mascot text. Three font styles are available, along with reversed colors, and everything runs from the same console that operates the board—no extra cabling or separate wireless system.

ID panels do double duty. They carry your school identity and give you a sponsor surface, which is how many programs recover a meaningful share of the board's cost across a few seasons.

A scoreboard is not a short-term purchase. It has to stay readable, reliable, and easy to operate across practices, regular season play, tournaments, and community events. That profile fits:

• High schools replacing outdated scoreboards
• Recreation departments upgrading outdoor fields
• Colleges improving game-day operations
• Athletic programs adding play clocks or timing tools
• Multi-sport facilities standardizing scoreboard systems

Support does not stop at delivery. Model-specific manuals, spec resources, and technical assistance cover installation, operation, and long-term maintenance — and for facilities comparing total ownership value, that structure can matter as much as the display itself.

Electro-Mech Scoreboard FAQs

What sports do Electro-Mech scoreboards cover?

Football, basketball, baseball, softball, soccer, hockey, volleyball, and wrestling are all covered, along with additional sport applications. Play clocks, shot clocks, and timing displays are available as companion products.

Are they built for indoor and outdoor use?

Both. Outdoor models add conformal coating on the LED circuit boards and sealed, weather-resistant construction, while indoor models are built for gym mounting and multi-sport configuration. Choose based on venue type and how the board will be installed.

Can I customize an Electro-Mech scoreboard?

Yes. Many models support color selection from 18 standard options, branded ID panels, decorative truss structures, and electronic team names on eligible LX-series boards. Custom colors can be matched beyond the standard range on request.

Are play clocks, shot clocks, and timers available?

Yes. These are sold as separate displays that operate alongside your main scoreboard, and practice segment timers are also available for training use. Confirm console compatibility when you order, since the same control unit typically drives both.

What support comes after the purchase?

Model-specific owner's manuals, spec sheets, and cutsheets are published for each board. Toll-free technical support covers installation questions, operation, and maintenance for the life of the product.

What does the warranty cover?

Electro-Mech warrants the equipment free from defects in materials and workmanship for five years from the invoice date. For LEDs specifically, a defect means pixels that stop emitting light. Coverage is limited to repair or replacement at Electro-Mech's option.

How do I get pricing for my facility?

Send your sport, indoor or outdoor placement, approximate viewing distance, and any customization you want. A configured quote comes back against those details rather than a generic list price, since cabinet size and options drive most of the cost.
