Backdrop hire

Wooden panel backdrops for hire in London.

A real stained or painted wood panel, not a printed vinyl standing in for one. We keep a rotating range on castors, from a weathered dark stain to a crisp white panelled wall, ready to wheel in front of a set in minutes.

Backdrops are available to hire as an add-on to any studio booking alongside the Colorama paper and styling kit, so a shoot can move between a seamless background and a textured one without losing the day to a changeover.

Need something specific? We run an in-house carpentry service for bespoke set builds, so a backdrop or a prop built to your brief is made on site rather than sourced and hoped for.
