Rental & Staging

Gear that earns its keep

Brands that riders ask for, the cases, power and accessories that go with them, in stock locally and backed by people who know rental.

Why rental companies work with us

Live experience

Built for the work behind the show

Rental and staging businesses need more than a box mover. They need a partner who understands load-in pressure, the cost of downtime and equipment that is not earning on hire. Our team brings front-of-house, touring and live-production experience, shaping practical advice, equipment choices and support.

Complete rigs

A complete solution, not only gear

A deployable system includes cases, power distribution, accessories, bags and covers, not just loudspeakers, consoles or screens. Stage Audio Works supplies the complete package for every budget: premium audio solutions from d&b audiotechnik and Plus Audio, video and lighting brands such as Analog Way, Appotronics, Pixel Plus and Plus Lighting, alongside locally manufactured Stage Plus cases, power distribution and staging solutions.

Fleet planning

Scale the fleet to the opportunity

We distribute d&b audiotechnik, Sennheiser, Yamaha, Appotronics, Waves, Analog Way and Blackmagic Design: brands recognised by visiting productions, designers and riders. We help you build scalable fleets around the work you win: premium rider-led systems where required, dependable value-driven alternatives, and the accessories, staging and infrastructure that complete every deployment. The goal is equipment that fits your client base, supports utilisation and enables future expansion.

Stock and support

Stock, spares and people who answer

We hold locally supported stock in Midrand and advise on spares, accessories and backup equipment that protect uptime. Plus Portal provides 24/7 stock visibility, ordering and account statements, while your named account manager offers direct access to experienced support.

Live streaming

Add streaming capability

StreamWorks, our streaming platform, enables rental and staging businesses to extend events beyond the room and deliver a more complete production service to remote audiences.

Questions we’re asked

Can we buy a whole rig from you, not only the boxes?

Yes. Tell us what you hire out and we’ll quote the boxes with the Stage Plus cases, power distribution, accessories and bags or covers that go with them, so the order arrives complete.

How do we know a brand will be accepted on a rider?

Send us the riders you’re asked for most. Your account manager will show you which of our brands cover them, and which don’t, before you buy.

Are the Plus brands only for small fleets?

No. We suggest Stage Plus and the Plus family where they suit the fleet, the riders and the budget, and another brand where it fits better, the same as for any brand we carry.

Can I order outside office hours?

Yes. Plus Portal is open 24/7: check stock, order and download statements whenever you’re quoting, including nights and weekends. Your account manager handles anything that needs a person. About Plus Portal
