Stands And Brackets

Lifting and mounting hardware for lighting, PA and video lives here, from Gravity steel speaker stands to the Kuzar and VMB lifting towers that put truss and line arrays several metres in the air. The category spans six ranges: telescopic lifters, front loading lifters, ground support tower systems, brackets, lecterns and the accessories that make them all fit together.

The lifter types answer different questions. Telescopic lifters, like the Kuzar K-8 at 6.5m and 300kg, wind a load straight up on a compact footprint and suit truss crossbars and one-day jobs. Front loading lifters, including the VMB TL-A300 line array lifter at 6m and 300kg, let you load near the base and are the standard tool for flying arrays where there are no house points. Ground support tower systems, such as the Kuzar K-10 at 7m and 500kg, are the step up for full outdoor structures. Around them sit the details that make a system usable: T-bars, truss adaptors and TV spigot adaptors from Kuzar, 35mm loudspeaker adaptors from VMB, and floor and VESA brackets from Elumen8 and Global Truss. Kuzar accessories are model-specific by design, so always match the adaptor to the exact lifter.

Speccing a lifter against a real load is exactly the conversation our trade customers have with us before ordering, and the truss it lifts is in the neighbouring categories.

Stands & Lifting FAQs

Telescopic or front-loading lifter? Telescopic (like the Kuzar K-8: 6.5 m, 300 kg) winds straight up on a compact footprint, right for truss crossbars. Front loaders take the load at waist height then climb, which crews prefer for heavy PA and line arrays.

Speaker stand or lifter? Stands carry a cabinet at head height; anything heavier, higher or shared across a span needs a lifter or ground support, and rated hardware throughout.

What am I responsible for legally? Lifters used at work fall under LOLER like hoists do, inspection duties are summarised in the chain hoist guide.
