Stage
Engineering
We’ve come pretty late to the industry, we weren’t around for Plato, or the colosseum, Georgians or the Victorians for that matter. Today, whilst stage engineering is still mainly focused on the stage, its products and services have expanded out to wider industries. Our parent company Triple E is best known and loved for its stage engineering solutions.
What Is Stage Engineering?
Well briefly put it is all the Back of house Engineering that makes a stage work, and makes shows happen. Specific Engineering for the stage can perhaps be traced back to 375 BCE and Plato. This is where the scenic Element of Periaktos is first mentioned in writing. But if one considers all the winches, floods, flown gates, and trapdoors in the Colosseum, one can start to see how stage engineering developed. Stage Effects (end the engineering required) was vastly improved by the Georgians and Victorians. And now we find ourselves in the digital age of top quality stage effects.
At EEE Build, we are highly competent in installing all of Triple E’s world leading range of products. Bringing our own experience to bear, we are also competent in a wider range of services.

Safety is the bedrock of EEE Build. Inspections are a key part of our business. Our competence in inspecting lies heavily in the mechanical and structural departments, but we have partners who are NIC EIC and PAT accredited to work on all manner of stage equipment.

We not only inspect equipment we have installed, but in the right circumstances are happy to inspect all manner of stage equipment. If you know you need an inspection to be legally compliant, but aren’t sure which… Then give us a call!
04
Maintenance
Equipment needs to be maintained, and quite often this maintenance need is raised from an inspection or a break down. Whilst we would always prefer to be completing preventative maintenance to avert machinery failures. Sometimes equipment just goes wrong. As such we are able to troubleshoot, test and bring back on-line all manner of stage equipment.
Working in the theatre industry, we understand that sometimes an agile response is needed to ensure that broken equipment doesn’t become a show-stopper!
05
Load Testing
Sometimes it is necessary to load test equipment, whether by LEEA recommendations, manufacturers instructions, or structural Engineers request.
We stock a Modest amount of test weight, and have partners and associates who can supply more in a short space of time alongside all manner of accessories such as load cells and monitoring.
