Stage machinery
We offer any mechanical system to be installed within a stage, both in standard and customized production when it is required. Inside an infrastructure, we install fly facilities to support any stage element (lighting projectors, scenery, scenic clothing...), stage lifts for orchestras or actors, variable speed motors, chain motors, etc.
Most of them are manufactured in our factory in Barcelona, and some others come from the most prestigious international brands. All these products are always manufactured according to today’s security regulations.
Fly facilities
We have 3 different systems to support the scenic elements and we install each one depending on the weight of the element. Our professional team will decide which the best solution is in each case.
Manual system: To support low weight elements (curtains, some scenery…)
Motor system: To support heavy weight elements (lighting projectors, big scenery…)
Counterweight system: To support scenic elements with 500kg of weight as maximum.

We install stage lifts in the stage floor, which can be used to elevate any element from under stage. Many times are used in orchestra spectacles.
Strong Stage specialists have the certification required to install the prestigious international brand Spiralift. This is a lift system created by a Canadian company called Paco Corporation. It is based on spiral columns that allow elements to rise to the stage very quickly and safely with no need of unused space in the bottom and without drilling holes in the ground because the body can be stored in a column at a maximum space of 60 cm.
