General Features

Portable & Telescopic Grandstands

Portable and telescopic grandstands can help venues make more efficient use of available space. Depending on the design, these systems may be suitable for sports halls, multipurpose arenas, training facilities and selected outdoor applications.

Portable systems are intended to be moved or repositioned according to their design. Telescopic systems retract or extend to change the amount of space occupied by the seating structure.

Flexible Seating for Different Venues

A suitable system can help a venue adapt its spectator capacity to different activities. The choice depends on the building layout, available storage space, intended frequency of use and the operating method of the system.

Planning Considerations

• Available space: room required when the system is open and, where relevant, retracted.

• Capacity: the intended number of spectators.

• Operation: manual or powered operation, where offered by the selected system.

• Floor and structure: compatibility with the building and installation surface.

• Access and evacuation: safe circulation routes and exits.

• Maintenance: inspection and servicing requirements.

The system must be selected and installed in accordance with its technical documentation and applicable local requirements.
