Simplifying Set Design with Modular Flats
In theatre production, efficiency, safety, and reliability are critical, but traditional wood flats often fall short—warping, breaking down, and needing frequent repair or replacement. Technical Theatre Products’ flats solve these issues. A combination of our plain, window and door flats are engineered to withstand humidity, maintain precise alignment, and be used repeatedly. Flat construction is virtually eliminated. With very few tools, flats can be assembled, reconfigured or changed. Flat faces, windows and door frames, and trim can be changed in minutes. Transform your production process with Technical Theatre Products’ innovative modular flats.
