Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is stage engineering?
Stage engineering refers to the design, installation, and maintenance of mechanical and structural systems used in performance spaces. This includes lifting equipment, winch systems, rigging, stage platforms, and flying systems that allow lighting, scenery, and equipment to move safely and efficiently.
Q: What are stage flying systems?
Stage flying systems are mechanical setups that raise, lower, or move scenery, lighting, and curtains during performances. They can be manual rope systems or fully motorised winches and hoists, allowing precise and safe control of equipment above the stage.
Q: What types of stage engineering systems do you install?
Stage & Studio Projects install a wide range of systems including manual and motorised winches, hemp rope lifting sets, staging and tiering systems, acoustic treatments, and full rigging installations. We also provide inspection and testing services for existing equipment.
Q: How often should stage engineering systems be inspected?
All lifting and rigging systems should be inspected regularly to comply with safety regulations such as LOLER and PUWER. Stage & Studio Projects carry out thorough inspections, testing, and certification to ensure every system operates safely and efficiently.
Q: Do you provide maintenance and safety reports?
Yes. We offer complete maintenance and inspection services, including LOLER, PUWER, EICR, and PAT testing. Each inspection is followed by a detailed safety report and recommendations to help you maintain compliance and reliability.
Q: How much does a stage engineering or flying system cost?
Costs depend on the size of the venue, the type of system, and whether it’s manual or motorised. We provide bespoke designs and detailed quotations after a consultation to ensure your system meets performance, safety, and budget requirements.
