Open houses compete for drive-by attention. A projected address, brand or 'OPEN' mark on the facade and front window at dusk makes the listing unmissable from the street — and swaps for the next property in seconds.
Facade and window targets
The most effective spots are the front facade near the door and the street-facing window. Both catch slow-moving drive-by traffic at dusk when projection reads best.
Dusk is the sweet spot
Project as light fades — bright enough to read, dark enough for contrast. Schedule the strongest playback in the golden-hour-to-night window when buyers cruise listings.
Window display
A logo or 'OPEN' on the front window reinforces the brand from inside and out. Mind reflection and streetlight; a matte window film or shaded spot helps.
Portable and reusable
Agents benefit from a compact, rechargeable unit that moves house to house. One kit serves every listing with a disc library (brand, OPEN, address).
Safety and neighbours
Aim at the property, not the street or neighbouring windows. Keep beams low and brief to respect the block.

Common questions
When is the best time to project for an open house?
Dusk into night — bright enough to read, dark enough for contrast, exactly when buyers drive listings.
Can I project on the window?
Yes — a logo or 'OPEN' on the front window works inside and out; manage reflection and streetlight with shading.
Do I need mains at the house?
A rechargeable unit avoids hunting for power and moves between listings; ideal for agents.
Will it annoy neighbours?
Only if aimed at them. Keep beams on the property, low and brief, and respect the block.
How reusable across listings?
One kit + a disc library (brand, OPEN, address) serves every property with a quick swap.
What makes it readable at dusk?
A high-contrast single-colour or white gobo on a matte surface, sized for a glance from the curb.
