Prop Platforms
Many events require the use of props to provide a visual perspective that is symbolic of the occasion or product and enhances the viewer experience.
Occasions
Some of the many uses for props include set pieces and backdrops for live theatre, floats for street parades and carnivals, branding for business and product promotional events, decorations and centrepieces for premieres, parties and sporting events.
Safety, Security & Strength
When large props are required for public displays, there is more to be considered than the artistry of creating an enticing visual. To gain council approval for the use of larger sized props at public events, it is necessary to meet specific safety standards. For the safety of participants, guests and spectators, a stable and secure base for the prop is essential. The key elements required for the base are that it is structurally sound and meets engineering standards. It’s also crucial that it is adaptable to specific site conditions and able to have fastenings applied to it. The base platform needs to be large enough to securely accommodate the prop and have the necessary strength to support its weight.
