Spread the cost of staging, trussing and decking systems from £5,000 to £150,000+ with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, staging systems are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £5,000 to £150,000, and most deals are written over 24–72 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Staging systems qualify for Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the qualifying cost from taxable profits in the year of purchase. Trussing, decking and stage structures are modular and demountable rather than fixed installations, which is what keeps them financeable as plant and equipment. HP allows you to claim capital allowances directly; finance lease payments are generally deductible against profits instead.
Staging systems, trussing, decking and stage structures, are bought by production companies, festival organisers and AV hire businesses building out a stock of sections they can configure differently for each job. Trussing and decking earn their keep by going out on many separate bookings rather than a single event, so it is utilisation across the touring and festival calendar that services the finance rather than any one show. Demand is heavily weighted to the UK event season from April to September, so lenders familiar with the sector assess several years of seasonal trading rather than a single quiet quarter. Because sections are modular and demountable, a stock can be reconfigured for very different stage sizes, which also supports a healthy trade in used truss and deck sections between hire companies.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
