Aluminum Stage Risers...
« on: February 06, 2014, 05:15:45 PM »

Hi Guys/Gals,

I am looking for Aluminum constructed Stage risers about 2'H x 4' x 8'.  New to the industry and looking for opinions on the best quality and price, but more importantly where i can buy these locally?  (Sacramento,CA)

thanks!

Wenger, BilJax, Staging Concepts are three great manufacturers. They are not cheap, though. Depending on the size of legs that you use, end height is usually variable from 6" to 4' -- over 4' and you need to engineer very carefully. Even at that point, follow directions precisely.

Not in Sac, so don't have any local options. Look for dealers of any of the above brands?

Grainger sells Bil-Jax multi stage. It's great and flexible. I assume you have Grainger there, but you never know...

StageRight
They are in Michigan but I believe their pricing includes shipping (or maybe they absorb some of the cost)
Great stuff in my opinion way easier and more solid than the BilJax stuff

Agree about the BilJax.  I don't like it, either as a provider or user.  Too often it's inadequately braced, it's time consuming to level, and generally a pain in the ass.  I think I've worked with ONE provider that did the BilJax stage pretty well.  He used his own crew to build it, it went up pretty fast and was 99% right the first time.  My other encounters with BilJax were not so good...

Staging Concepts, Stage Right, Sico and a couple of others are the real deal in staging.  If the OP just needs DJ/keyboard/drum risers, the Wenger StageTek (replaced the Versalite) is a possibility.

If the loads are heavy or dynamic I suggest consultation with the manufacture before making a purchase commitment.
