Four days of stock for four hours of party.

On the van Wednesday, built Thursday, gala Friday, back in the warehouse Saturday afternoon. Block only the Friday and your stock list is a work of fiction.

  • Bump-in and bump-out are the booking

    The days either side hold the stock as firmly as the event does, so the second enquiry for that weekend gets an answer you can honour.

  • Nobody minds which par can

    Identical stock is counted rather than tracked, so a hire takes twelve fixtures off the number and nobody is picking serial numbers.

  • Held for the whole span

    A confirmed build removes the kit from load-out to return, so the deck on a van on Thursday is not still bookable on the page.

A month calendar with booking dots marking the busy days, the way venue and hire availability is read across weeks.

Built for your warehouse

Built for every kind of production hire

Wedding lighting packages

Put the right lighting fixture, truss or stage deck online with its photo, specifications and price.

Festival stage decks

Protect the full stage-lighting hire span from get-in slot until return, so the same stock cannot quietly leave with two customers.

Conference uplighting

Add the rate rungs you actually sell. Bookables finds the cheapest valid cover for the span, including when a longer rung costs less.

Band lighting rigs

Use named units for condition history or counted stock where named serials do not matter; availability still stays with the chosen lighting fixture.

Multi-day production hire

Keep depot collection and delivery choices on the same booking, with both legs tied to the stage-lighting hire rather than a second message thread.

Truss and cable add-ons

Start the longer stage-lighting hire with an itemised quote, keeping options and the accepted scope beside the final pickup window.

A changed get-in

Move the return to cover a changed get-in. The price follows the new span and any paid extras stay attached. The office has one record.

Rigging checks

Take the unit offline for electrical and rigging check after return, leaving each inspected unit of that lighting fixture.

Pro

The lighting and staging hire fee beside the.

Keep the lighting and staging hire fee, chosen rate cover and any handover bond beside the same pickup-to-return stage-lighting hire.

  • The cheapest valid rate cover

    Your rate card can hold several rungs for the lighting fixture, truss or stage deck. Bookables compares valid combinations and uses the cheapest cover for the complete span.

  • The billable period can differ

    Set a free late pickup day or early return day in your timezone so the charged stage-lighting hire period matches how your counter actually works.

  • Bond handled at handover

    Pro takes card payment for the stage-lighting hire. If you use a bond, the card is set up at booking, held at handover and released or partly captured after return.

A list of payments, each with the customer, reference, date, method and amount, with totals received and still outstanding.

One app for every booking

Everything you need to run your production hire business.

Online booking

Customers can choose the lighting fixture, truss or stage deck, collection and return together. The lighting stays attached to that booking.

Scheduling

See each get-in slot, time out, expected return and electrical and rigging check on one stage-lighting hire calendar, not as one long day.

Standing bookings

Repeat a regular lighting fixture, truss or stage deck hire weekly or monthly on Free when the same customer needs an agreed run of collection windows.

One rig, one job

A confirmed hire removes the stock for its whole span, so the deck on a van Thursday is not also promised to a Friday wedding.

Estimates

Itemise a longer stage-lighting hire, options and agreed delivery in a quote, then retain the accepted hire scope beside the booking.

Email reminders

Email the customer their lighting fixture, truss or stage deck, get-in slot, return time and handover notes before the hire leaves your control.

Customers

Keep the customer’s earlier stage-lighting hire choices, option details and payment history together when the next collection is arranged.

Team

Give the stage-hire owner one hire-desk view of collections, returns, units out on hire and every electrical and rigging check before shutters go up.

Payments

Price the stage-lighting hire from your rate-card rungs, take card payment on Pro and use a handover bond where that lighting fixture.
