Product Information

Product Description

The DragonStage 7.40x8.26m Backstage Equipment Loading Ramp is a modular access system designed for concert stages, festivals, exhibitions, and temporary event platforms where production equipment needs to move between ground level and the stage.

Instead of requiring one long straight access route, the ramp uses an L-shaped 90-degree layout with an intermediate landing.

The overall footprint shown in the drawing is approximately:

24 ft 3⅜ in × 27 ft 1¼ in
7.40m × 8.26m

The ramp surface is assembled from standard 4 × 4 ft / 1.22 × 1.22m modular deck panels, making the complete structure easier to transport, store, install, replace, and reconfigure for repeated event use.

For other modular access configurations, see Typical Aluminum Ramp.

For matching temporary stage systems, see Stage Platform.

Designed for Backstage Load-In and Load-Out

This product is especially suited to the backstage workflow of live events.

Typical wheeled equipment can include:

• lighting flight cases

• audio equipment cases

• cable trunks

• mixer and control cases

• moving-head cases

• production carts

• small speaker carts

• event hardware trolleys

A continuous ramp route allows suitable wheeled equipment to move without having to be manually lifted over stage stairs.

The final allowable equipment weight should be confirmed according to the required project load and support configuration.

90-Degree Layout for Limited Backstage Space

Concert backstage areas are rarely completely open.

Space may already be occupied by:

• truss components

• sound equipment

• LED equipment

• flight cases

• backstage tents

• generators

• barriers

• cable routes

• crew working areas

A straight ramp can therefore become difficult to position.

The 90-degree configuration allows the access route to turn at an intermediate landing and approach the stage from another direction.

This makes the ramp easier to integrate beside or behind a temporary stage.

Intermediate Equipment Turning Landing

The turning area is not simply a connection between two ramp sections.

It also provides a transition point where the direction of movement changes.

This is especially useful when moving wheeled event equipment because the operator does not need to make the entire route in one straight line.

The landing connects:

• the first ramp run

• the 90-degree direction change

• the second ramp run

• the stage connection area

The exact landing and support arrangement follows the final production layout.

Standard 4 × 4 ft Modular Deck Panels

Each standard deck section measures:

4 × 4 ft / approximately 1.22 × 1.22m

The same module can be used throughout the system for:

• inclined ramp sections

• landing sections

• upper transition areas

• lower access sections

A repeated panel size also simplifies:

• packing

• transportation

• warehouse storage

• installation

• replacement

• future expansion

The final quantity of panels and support components depends on the confirmed stage height

Dual-Side Guardrails

Guardrails are installed along both sides of the ramp.

Confirmed guardrail height:

3.28 ft / 1.0m

The guardrails continue around the access route and turning area, providing a defined passage for crew members and wheeled equipment.

Why Use a Loading Ramp Instead of Stage Stairs?

Stage stairs are practical for performers and crew, but they are not convenient for heavy wheeled cases.

A loading ramp creates a continuous route for suitable wheeled equipment.

For event rental companies and touring productions, this can simplify movement of:

• flight cases

• lighting equipment

• audio accessories

• cables

• control equipment

• event hardware

This ramp therefore serves a different purpose from a normal performer stair.

For other stage-access products, see Stage Accessories.

• Touring stage equipment

• Exhibition equipment loading

• Corporate event production

• Church event stages

• Temporary performance platforms

• Stage crew access

• Event equipment carts

Modular Aluminum Structure

The ramp is designed as a temporary modular event structure rather than one permanently welded unit.

This allows individual sections to be:

• transported separately

• stacked for storage

• installed repeatedly

• replaced individually

• extended for future projects

• rearranged for different site layouts

This is particularly useful for rental companies that may use the same ramp components with different stage projects.

Can People Also Use This Ramp?

Yes.

Although this product page is primarily positioned as a backstage equipment loading ramp, the continuous access route can also be used by performers, technicians, and other event personnel.

If the main requirement is a dedicated mobility-access route, the final stage height, slope, clear passage, and layout should be confirmed separately according to the intended use.

How to Confirm the Correct Configuration

For quotation, please provide:

• finished stage height

• available backstage area

• ramp entrance position

• stage connection position

• equipment type

• approximate equipment weight

• whether equipment uses wheels or carts

• indoor or outdoor application

DragonStage can then confirm the final ramp length, support height, panel quantity, and landing configuration.

Important Product Note

The confirmed product configuration includes:

• overall dimensions: 291⅜ in × 325¼ in

• metric dimensions: approximately 7.40 × 8.26m

• standard deck size: 4 × 4 ft / 1.22 × 1.22m

• L-shaped / 90-degree layout

• intermediate turning landing

• aluminum structure

• guardrails on both sides

• guardrail height: 1m / 3.28ft

The final stage height, ramp slope, allowable load, support arrangement, and connection details should be confirmed according to the actual project.
