Our experts have decades of experience in installing and inspecting all types of rigging systems.

We offer systems integration, design and installation, and inspection and maintenance for the following rigging types: 

  • Motorized rigging: We are an ETC-certified rigging dealer that provides several motorized options to allow your staff or students to hang equipment safely and more efficiently than the manual rigging counterpart.
  • Manual rigging: All of our manual rigging is made in the US and is custom-made per project. Our rigging meets all ANSI Standards requirements.
  • Pipe grids: We provide custom studio pipe grids that include both track and curtain systems.
  • Curtains and track: VLS technicians visit each site to ensure proper measurements are taken. A wide range of fabric choices and construction are available to meet your preferences, budget, and other needs. All curtains are manufactured in the US. Every curtain is custom-made for each application, guaranteeing the best fit and finish.

We’re a proud distributor and installer of some of the best rigging systems, gear, and curtain systems available, including ETC, IWEISS, Columbus McKinnon, and many others.
