Summer Solstice for J&C Joel

Supplier: J & C Joel Ltd

More J & C Joel Ltd details
J&C Joel has supplied and installed nineteen 200 KG SWL electric Pilewind winches into the overstage area of the main auditorium within the brand new Solstice Arts Centre in Navan, County Meath, Ireland.

The system is designed for the quick and easy rigging and de-rigging of lighting, audio and AV equipment, scenery items and props.

Each winch is designed to raise and lower a 12m long ladder framed suspension bar at a single speed, and includes multi-grooved ball-raced pulleys, steel core suspension cables, standard and back up limit switches control the distance of travel.

Control is via a wall-mounted, illuminated, push button panel, with the ability to select up to 5 units to run simultaneously.

Upstage, there's also an additional manual/electric drill operated Pilewind that lifts a 12m wide black backdrop which when required is lowered to create a Rearstage crossover.

Complementing the Pilewind system J&C Joel has also supplied and installed a complete set of durable stage drapes, consisting of blue velour lined main curtains and house border, on-stage black wool serge curtains, including borders, legs and tabs. The curtains are complemented with a 12m wide x 6m drop white seamless cyc.

Solstice, the county's first major cultural centre, is the result of a €13.5m project and owned and operated by Meath County Council. It was designed by Shelly McNamara of Grafton Architects and the space includes a 320-seat theatre, three visual-arts areas and a café/bar.
