Throwback to an ambitious build we did a while back for a long-standing partner of ours, the Kiln Theatre ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ

This build required a unique set design - a split-level, skeletal representation of a New York residential building - for a production of The Purists.

Using a detailed 3D model of the structure for reference, we created a robust raised platform (nearly 4m high!) with the help of rigging hoists to complement the urban design of the show.

And as The Kiln is a member of the Theatre Green Book, we used reusable Steeldeck, avoiding single-use construction and minimising waste.

We worked as a key collaborator on this project over the course of two months, with the build itself taking just 3 days.

The result was a striking and functional set design that perfectly captured the showโ€™s industrial style!

You can read about the project in more detail on our website: https://www.steeldeck.co.uk/portfolio/the-kiln/

And if you've got a similar project coming up, please send us a DM, email or call us and we can chat it through!

We designed a temporary structure for a car launch in a skatepark! ๐Ÿš— ๐Ÿ›น

d&b solutions approached us as they needed help creating staging for the launch of the new CUPRA Raval, hosted at Projekts MCR Skatepark in Manchester.

Steeldeck designed and installed a bespoke structure that could safely support the weight of the vehicle and the performers throughout the event.

The space itself presented a series of constraints, including strict height restrictions that meant the car could not be craned into position.

The solution was to include a temporary load-in ramp system, which was installed, removed for the performance, and then re-installed for an efficient and controlled load-out of the vehicle.

This way, we were able to deliver both creativity and practicality to maintain safety, speed of turnaround and visual impact throughout the event staging build.

Thank you for trusting us with this project d&b solutions, what a cool event to work on!

Are your events accessible?

Accessibility is fundamental to good event design. No matter if it's a festival, theatre performance or a conference, ensuring everyone can access your event is crucial.

Our modular staging allows us to integrate access features seamlessly into your layout, such as DDA-compliant ramps, step units with handrails, accessible viewing platforms, backstage access, and more.

By designing access into the structure from the outset, we ensure a safer, more intuitive experience for all users.

And it's not just staging, it's seating, too. We can configure seating to accommodate wheelchair users, maintain clear sightlines and ensure safe and efficient crowd flow.

Accessible design enhances creativity. When audiences, performers and crews can move safely and comfortably through a space, the overall experience improves for everyone!

Get in touch with the Steeldeck team and we'll help you design accessible staging and seating for your next event. Contact info is on our website.

We stock a huge range of different platforms at Steeldeck, including circular staging ๐ŸŒ€

Reflecting on a project we worked on with Factory International, which required bespoke curved staging to house a lighting installation.

The platforms had to be built to very specific dimensions and heights to ensure that the public could easily move around the installation, and to hide the lighting fixtures so that only the beams of light would be visible.

We worked closely with the team to design a solution using small Steeldeck platforms as the stage base, with bespoke cladding, guardrails and drapes.

This is exactly the kind of project that we enjoy - designing solutions that use our hire stock as the base structure, with bespoke and seamless finishes.

Swipe to see the incredible result! ๐Ÿ”ฆ

Did someone say it's almost festival season already?

Festivals are as diverse as the audiences they attract, and each comes with unique requirements.

For a festival to be a successful event for organisers and a memorable experience for audiences, all elements need to be right, including the quality and appearance of the stages.

That's where we come in! ๐Ÿ‘‡

We're a leader in the stage hire industry, and we'll support you with all kinds of projects, from accessible ramp solutions to tiered seating set-ups and bold brand activations.

As always, we recommend getting organised well ahead of time. Just send us a DM, give us a call or email us and we'll handle the rest!

Some events require extra thought and planning.

We might need to level a sloped garden to support a sizeable marquee or construct a robust stage capable of holding a massive water tank for a magicianโ€™s escape act, you name it, we've done it!

Steeldeck has plenty of experience in assessing structures and collaborating with structural engineers to calculate loads and deliver safe, secure solutions for any design.

Swipe to see some interesting event structures we've helped build over the years ๐Ÿ‘‰

1. An outdoor stage and public access bar area, engineered to support a shipping container with a plane on top
2. Festival stages nestled within the woodlands, with custom-built treads to accommodate uneven terrain
3. A large event structure ranging from 0.2m to 5.5m in height and supporting a 40-tonne glass marquee
