Aluminium and Steel Props for TV and Film

When your set designers need steel or aluminium props, backdrops and scenery, Hinton Palmer are here to help. With a proven track record of creating high quality steel and aluminium props for TV and film, you can rely on us to turn your ideas into reality.

From our highly equipped Bristol workshop, we can create or modify almost any type of aluminium, mild steel or stainless steel construction, including:

• Props
• Backdrops
• Scenery

If colour is needed, that is no problem – we have our own powder coating facilities so can apply a huge range of colours and finishes to your props. For more information on the benefits of powder coating, see our powder coating page.

Avoid Filming Delays with our Fast Production Times

As we create and modify metal props entirely ‘in house’, we are able to offer exceptionally fast turn-around times. So when you need steel or aluminium props, sets and backdrops at short notice, you can rely on us to deliver. In fact, for modifications, we can often provide a "while you wait" same-day service.

To illustrate our ability to deliver exceptional steel and aluminium props to tight timescales, we’ve included images from a recent TV project. We were asked by the set designers of a long-running TV series to create ‘dummy’ jet engines for a scene being filmed on an airfield. The filming schedule was very tight, but our team went straight to work and were able to create and install two ‘dummy’ jet engines within a week. Filming of the airfield scene went ahead on time, with no delays.

Over the years, we have created steel and aluminium props, sets and backdrops for a diverse range of films and TV shows, and have built a strong reputation for delivering high quality products on time. So whether you need to alter the appearance of a stainless steel prop or want us to create an entirely new aluminium construct, get in touch.

Just let us know what you need and we will create a high quality mild steel, stainless steel or aluminium prop to your specifications, on time and to budget.
