Leave Your Limitations Backstage.
We don’t believe in live show limitations, when your event exists to evoke special feelings in the audience, you need an event stage that supports this unique connection. Our event stage design experts work with you, learn about your show and its needs, and provide recommendations and possibilities for you to make an informed decision on your custom-built stage.
Constructing your stage with only trusted stage deck brands, such as Steeldeck, StageRight, and our very own Uni-Dec provides the structural integrity to support the design capabilities. We’ve created circular stage options, raked stages, rough terrain solutions, and multi-tiered platforms that have been the canvas for countless remarkable shows.
We offer stage decks in 4x8, 4X6,4x4, 3X8, 3X4, 2x8, 2X4, 2X2 and 4ʹ triangular, and custom round sections.
Additional options include rolling stages for both indoor and outdoor applications. We can customize staging to suit nearly any situation, including tiered stages for seating risers, and choral risers. Staging applications include concert stages, drum risers, mix positions, choral risers, fashion runways, AV platforms, and camera support. We have a wide assortment of accessories including staircases, skirting, handrail, chair rail, and ADA-compliant access ramps.
The unique perimeter extrusion of Uni-Dec creates new capabilities for stage accessories that deliver versatility in both the range of accessories and on-the-spot adjustability.
With an in-house design and manufacturing team, you can capitalize on the capabilities of Uni-Dec with our designers equipped to fulfill your custom stage and accessory solutions.

Ballast systems secure your ground-supported structures. This is especially important for outdoor stages that are subject to winds and offset structures like delay towers and video hangs.
There are different types of ballasts:
Concrete ballasts are large concrete blocks that can come with or without rebar anchor points. They are moved by forklift and are often anchored to a top rebar point using steel and ratchet straps.
Good for placing outside the stage footprint where, once placed, they will not need to be moved until loadout.
Water ballasts use the weight of water to hold down stage elements. They come in many varieties such as water totes and folding frame water. Once in place, fill them with water. Water must be drained of properly for loadout.
With each cubic foot of water weighing over 62lbs, water ballasts are good for when you need a lot of counterweight.
UNI-BLOC is our patented stage ballast designed specifically for the live-event industry. With fork and pallet jack pick points on all four sides, and the ability to attach truss to the sides and top, UNI-BLOC is made to work with and into your stage design.
It is also highly adjustable with a top-floating plate that allows for minute adjustments, even after truss is attached.
UNI-BLOC NOW COMES IN TWO SIZES!
