Before you call

Common questions

How quickly will we hear back?

Quoting starts once we understand the space. Time-critical? Call 1300 439 872.

Do you visit venues before quoting?

Where the job calls for it. For new drapes, a stage plan, photos and rough sizes are usually enough to quote.

Do you work outside Melbourne?

Yes. We make for venues across Australia, and hire stock goes out Australia wide.

Do I need exact measurements before contacting you?

No. Rough sizes, a stage plan or photos are plenty. We confirm finished sizes with you before anything is cut.

What about tracks, motors and rigging?

One enquiry covers both. Tracks, motors and fly systems are engineered by Theatre Safe Australia, our parent company.
