Grip & Support Rental · Barcelona

Grip Equipment Rental in Barcelona.
From the C-Stand to the Manfrotto MegaBoom 425.

Light stands, C-stands, boom arms, clamps, flags and scrims. Professional grip for advertising, editorial and film shoots.

The physical structure of the set, ready to work: self-locking stands, articulated arms, Avenger gobo heads and a full selection of clamps and rigging accessories. Available as standalone rental (or hire) or as part of your studio production.

C-STAND · THE STAND

“On a professional shoot, the C-Stand isn’t the flashiest piece of gear on set — it’s the most reliable. A staggered three-leg base, articulated arm included and a real payload for modifiers of any size. No improvising, no compromising the structure.”

The reference stand in professional photography and film. A staggered base that lets you nest several C-Stands without taking up twice the space, a rotating head with a 5/8" stud and an articulated arm ready to hold gobos, flags, softboxes and accessories of any weight. Available in three configurations: column only, with articulated arm, and with arm and wheels for sets that move.

Some sessions can’t compromise on stability. The C-Stand holds loads a standard light stand can’t, reaches positions other stands can’t, and frees up hands on set when the crew is small. One well-placed C-Stand replaces two people holding things.

That’s why we recommend it for editorial photography with gobos and flags, film shoots that need light control, and any production where the set structure can’t fail halfway through the day.

Ready when you arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
What grip equipment can I rent in Barcelona?

At openbcn studios you’ll find light stands, C-Stands with articulated arms, counterweighted boom arms, clamps, rigging accessories, power cables and strips, sandbags and professional wind machines. All the physical support a photo or film production in Barcelona needs, available individually or as part of your studio production.

02
Do you offer grip equipment delivery and pickup in Barcelona?

Yes. We work with external couriers for delivery and pickup, subject to availability. Get in touch with enough notice so we can arrange it without rushing.

03
Can I pick up the gear on the day of the production?

In many cases, yes, as long as the gear is in stock and we can handle it operationally. To be sure without relying on luck, the smart move is to confirm availability in advance. A quick inquiry avoids surprises on the day of the production.

04
Do you have multiple units available for large productions?

Yes. For productions with long gear lists, we work with partners who help us complete the order when our own stock isn’t enough. The idea is that you deal with a single point of contact and can rest assured the gear will arrive, without coordinating several suppliers yourself.
