Portable Staging - Faqs

What is a portable stage and how is it used?

A portable stage is a lightweight, modular platform designed for easy assembly, transport, and storage. It is commonly used for events such as concerts, speeches, or performances, where a temporary performance area is required. Portable stages are often used in schools, theatres, outdoor events, and corporate functions, providing a versatile and flexible solution for staging needs.

How do I set up a portable stage for an event?

To set up a portable stage for an event, first ensure the ground is level and clear. Begin by attaching the legs or base-frame structure, making sure they are securely in place for stability. Next, join the platform sections and lock them together using deck connectors, linkers, or bolts, depending on the design. If necessary, add steps, guardrails, or skirting/valances for safety and aesthetics. Finally, inspect the stage to ensure everything is securely fitted before use.

How much does it cost to buy portable staging?

Can portable staging be rented for events or performances?

Yes, portable staging can often be rented for events or performances. Renting is a flexible and cost-effective option for temporary needs, such as concerts, conferences, or other short-term events.

What are the benefits of using portable staging for schools?

Portable staging for schools offers several benefits. It provides flexibility, allowing schools to quickly set up and dismantle stages for a variety of events such as assemblies, performances, and presentations. The lightweight, modular design makes it easy to store and transport, and its adjustable configurations can suit different spaces and event sizes. Also, portable stages are cost-effective, as they can be reused for multiple purposes throughout the school year.

What materials are used to build portable staging platforms?

The materials used to build portable staging platforms depend on the style of the stage. Our Debut system features powder-coated mild steel frames and phenolic wooden tops, while our TopDeck, Cameo, Performa, and Ovation systems are manufactured using aluminium frames with timber tops. The choice of materials ensures durability, strength, and adaptability for different event needs.

How do I transport and store portable staging?

We offer various storage and transport options for portable staging, which can be customised to suit your needs. These include trolleys designed to fit through different doorway sizes, as well as stillages for more secure storage. Our solutions ensure that your staging can be easily transported and stored safely when not in use. For specific requirements, we can provide tailored options.

What are the best portable staging options for outdoor events?

For outdoor events, large and heavy-duty portable staging options like Performa and Ovation are ideal. These systems can be designed to withstand outdoor conditions, offering robust strength, durability, and stability. With weather-resistant materials and strong frames, they are perfect for outdoor performances, ensuring a safe and reliable stage for any event. Also, their flexibility and ease of assembly make them suitable for a wide range of outdoor settings.

Is portable staging safe and stable for large crowds or performances?

Our portable staging is designed to be safe and stable for large crowds or performances when properly assembled and used according to our manufacturer’s guidelines. Our systems are built with robust materials such as aluminium frames and timber tops to support high loads, ensuring stability and safety. Proper assembly and regular inspections are key to maintaining this stability.

How customisable is portable staging in terms of size and design?

As the manufacturer, we can customise portable staging to meet any specific requirements you have. This includes options such as triangular or uniquely shaped decks, custom accessories, and tailored storage solutions. Whether you need a specific size, design, or additional features, we can work with you to create a stage that perfectly fits your event or venue.
