Props & Set Pieces
The pieces that set the scene
Props are the awkward ones. They are tall, they are wide, and they still have to get through the loading door of a hotel at four in the afternoon. That constraint shapes everything we build here — which is why ours fold, detach, and come back out of storage in one piece. Typical lead time 2–4 weeks.
The Range
What lands in this category
Walk-in pieces
Booths and structures a guest steps into — a British telephone box reworked as a photo booth, a built station with a working counter. Tall, freestanding, and engineered not to wobble when someone leans on it.
Scene setting
The oversized cutouts, arch-adjacent shapes, and themed pieces that turn a corner of a room into somewhere else. Usually the thing people photograph without being asked to.
Seasonal sets
Minarets, domes, and crescents for Ramadan; whatever the season needs. Made to order in your colours, and built to come back out of the garage next year.
Getting It In The Door
Built big, moved in pieces
The measurement that decides a prop's design is rarely the one people give us first. It is not how tall you want it — it is the narrowest thing between the van and the ballroom. Wings fold, panels detach, tall pieces split at a seam the camera never finds.
Send venue access details with your enquiry and we will design to them. It costs nothing at the drawing stage and it is expensive to discover on site.

Good Questions
The practical ones
- How does something seven feet tall get into a venue?
- By being designed to come apart before it is designed to look good. The food-station facade is eight and a half feet wide with two-foot side wings that fold and detach; the telephone booth stands seven and a half feet but breaks down to pass a normal doorway. Give us the venue access — door widths, lift size, whether there are stairs — and that becomes a constraint in the drawing rather than a problem on the day.
- Can we keep it and use it again?
- These are plywood, not foam or cardboard, so yes — and most clients do. Pieces get repainted between themes and stored flat where the build allows it. If reuse matters, tell us up front: it changes how we detail the joints and whether the piece is built to stack or fold.
- Can you do a whole themed set rather than one piece?
- Yes, and that is often the better answer. A single prop in an otherwise plain room reads as a single prop. We have built full themed environments where the facades, the stations, and the small details were drawn together so the room reads as one scene. Bring the theme and the floor plan, not just the one item you had in mind.
