Doughty Engineering Ltd
World leading manufacturers of rigging, suspension and lifting equipment for the film, TV and theatre industry.
Doughty Engineering is a world leading manufacturer of rigging, suspension and lifting equipment for the film, TV and theatre industry. From stage lighting clamps, to curtain track and studio rail, tank traps, pantographs, boom arms, brackets, and transporter trolleys, we can provide it all. Our industry knowledge, outstanding customer service and high standards have made us the go-to brand for entertainment professionals, providing off the shelf or bespoke solutions to even the most demanding and challenging of projects.
Over the years, cheaper imitations have come to market but with Doughty you can be guaranteed of a quality and standard that cannot be replicated. We design and manufacture all our products in-house at our factory in Ringwood, Hampshire in the UK which means we have complete control over every item that comes off the production line. So, if it doesn’t say Doughty on the outside, it’s not Doughty on the inside!

Consists of a 600mm square steel plate with a 48mm receiver welded to it. There is a cut out in the base to allow compact stacking for transport and storage.
