STAGE EQUIPMENT & STAGE SYSTEMS
Modern theatres are high-tech buildings. We specialize in the technical planning of stage systems.
To give you an idea of what we can do, here are some examples:

Stage machinery usually requires the greatest effort to integrate into the building. These systems include overstage machinery from flying systems to proscenium bridges, and understage machinery from stage elevators to revolving stages. There can be a variety of different stage machinery systems needed to realize your artistic vision. We design all of these. Whatever ideas you want to realise, we will make them work.

The control system is the heart of the entire stage machinery. It must be user-friendly and allow the show to be programmed quickly and the creative team's ideas to be implemented, while at the same time meeting very high safety standards in order to be able to move set pieces and performers over people. We specify the requirements, both technically and in terms of usability, so that the user receives a control system that is precisely tailored to their requirements.

FullScale designs sound systems for music and spoken word performances, live and playback, tailored to your venue and intended use.

We design lighting systems for performance lighting, work lights and blue lights from small scale installations to large scale complex networks. If required, we provide lighting calculations and simulations.

Audio network technology is constantly evolving. Fast networks are therefore the basis for modern audio systems from small systems to large public address systems and complex immersive sound systems. We design audio systems including audio relay using the latest technology and specify sound reinforcement systems for music and speech performances, live and playback, tailored to your venue and purpose.

The demands of current video technology on network capacities are already very high and will continue to increase with increasing resolution of video streams. We plan video systems including video relay that meet the requirements of current and future video technology.

Many different groups of people work in a theatre. In order to ensure a smooth process of setting up and dismantling the stage set for rehearsals and performances as well as coordination of all people involved in the performance, a wide variety of types of communication must be available. This includes verbal communication via intercom and calling systems, as well as visual communication via cue lights. Most theaters have a stage manager's desk as the heart of the communication system, from where the entire show process is coordinated.

We plan these systems exactly according to your needs and scale them according to your organizational structure and workflow.

FullScale designs safety related systems for indoor and outdoor venues, from sophisticated voice alarm systems to emergency guidance systems, from iron curtains to barrier systems.

The safety of the visitors and employees of the theater always has the highest priority. That is why we plan safety-relevant systems such as safety curtains and area monitoring with the greatest of care and in compliance with the applicable standards.

Stage floors come in many different designs. Depending on the requirement profile, a traditional wooden stage floor for opera and theater, a sprung floor for ballet or a heavy-duty floor for shows and events can be the better choice. We design stage flooring with regard to the planned use and provide for the integration of all necessary installations such as trap doors, recessed connection boxes, floor sockets, etc.

Unfortunately, the importance of seating is all too often underestimated. If a chair is perceived as comfortable and the seating arrangement supports the focus on the stage, the visitor can concentrate fully on the performance and the performance experience will not be impaired. We create seating layouts adapted to the venue for you and help you choose the right chair - whether permanent or loose, fixed or foldable seating.

We also design fixed or retractable grandstands - on fixed locations or moveable and reconfigurable. For this purpose, we also carry out line of sight analyzes and determine quantitative and qualitative visual conditions.
