DIY SERVICE

DO IT YOURSELF PROPS

The DIY service is a great way to save money and utilise props in areas where decorators are hard to find.

Installing our props is not too difficult but it does required a practical mind set.

Please find below the important issues that require a little forethought and planning:

1. VEHICLE

You will need a 1-Tonne flatbed (it must be accessible by forklift) Utility

2. PICK-UP

You will need to check the address and the operation times of your nearest NQX/TOLL depot.

Please click on the following link for this information:

You will need Rope or Straps to secure the Crate to the back of the Utility Tray.

3. TOOLS & CONSUMABLES

You will need the following tools and materials:

- Drill and Phillips Head Screw bit

 - Rubber or Wooden mallet

- Cable Ties (100 x 300mm x 4.8mm Black)

-  Black Gaff Tape (15mtrs)

 - Multi-coloured Electrical Tape and Cutters for cutting the cable ties.

4. Unpacking

Unless you have a forklift leave the crate on the back of the Utility (if raining unpack under cover preferably…but props are water resistant*).

Step 1. You will need to remove the screws from the crate lid.

Step 2. If raining unpack what you can carry then loosely (no screws) replace the lid to reduce exposure to the rain.

Step 3. Once fully unloaded replace the lid and screw down.

Step 4. Then tie the Crate to the Tray.

Note: When the crate is most likely to move and float off the tray whilst empty.

5. Installation

6. Pack-Down

Step 1. Disassemble the props in much the same manner as you assembles them.

Step 2. Tie all related Framing and components in bundles using the electrical tape in the colours indicated.
