Poly Board Stand
$50.00 /day
A dependable, lightweight all-metal floor support frame specifically designed to hold rigid reflector panels like poly boards or beadboards in an upright vertical position, now available for rental in Hong Kong. Combines a stable, low-profile base with a dual-bar structure to ensure reliable positioning of your light modifiers on busy studio sets. (Note: This rental package covers the metal support stand only; reflector boards are available for rent separately.)
A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.
The Rigid Reflector Floor Support Stand—crafted from durable, lightweight structural metal—is a practical lighting control accessory designed explicitly for solo video creators, lifestyle portrait photographers, and location film crews renting gear in Hong Kong. Unlike complex mounting setups requiring clamps and heavy stands, this floor frame offers a quick, stable solution to hold standard 3×6 or 4×8 feet rigid reflector panels vertically without propping them directly against walls or using excessive tape.
When executing an equipment hire for fast-paced commercial video interviews, lookbook fashion shoots, or premium product sessions, maintaining a clean and safe floor space is crucial on Hong Kong production sets. The stand’s low-profile base handles wind resistance beautifully, making it an exceptional rapid-deployment tool for outdoor sets in locations like Central alleyways or Tsim Sha Tsui plazas. It features an integrated dual-wire frame structure with a precise spacing channel, allowing you to slide a standard polystyrene board smoothly into place for reliable tracking.
Applicable Scenarios:
-
Stable Half-Body Portrait Fill Light: Placed beside your subject to re-route natural window ambient light or continuous LED streams cleanly into facial structures inside tight location offices in Central.
-
Product Negative Fill Structuring: Positions a black foamcore panel precisely beside glossy items or jewelry to control ambient reflections inside commercial studios in Kwun Tong or Chai Wan.
-
Blocking Stray Studio Lights: Deploys rapid-deployment light flagging between high-output fixtures and the camera to block non-axial light paths and eliminate unwanted lens flares.
-
Practical 30cm Base with 60cm Height: perfectly scaled physical profile provides useful full-screen vertical tracking while remaining easy to handle in compact spaces.
-
Stable Low-Profile Metal Framework: Keeps the board perfectly flat, smooth, and rigid under on-set stretching, eliminating the excessive bulk and weight of traditional heavy framing setups.
-
Structural Dual-Wire Frame Design: Features a integrated spacing channel that holds standard poly boards or beadboards firmly and securely without slipping.
-
Ultra-Lightweight Rigid core: Flexible framing design uses a weight-saving, all-metal composition, allowing field assistants to shift and pan the bounce tracking seamlessly.
-
Pure Color Temperature Neutrality: Advanced neutral metallic finish guarantees that no reflected light paths shift color temperature indices.

(Note: This listing covers the standalone metal support frame only. Light stands, universal grip heads, poly board panels, and sandbags are available for add-on rent separately at our Hong Kong studio.)
-
Q: Is the black and white poly board panel included inside this rental package?
A: No, it does not. This specific rental listing covers the all-metal floor support stand only. It is intended for crews who wish to use their own existing rigid boards on set or select their own board separately. If you require the complete setup, please remember to add our matching 90x180cm or 120x240cm Black & White Poly Boards to your Hong Kong rental allocation.
-
Q: How does this metal support stand hold a poly board without clamping?
A: The stand features a deliberate integrated spacing channel between its two upward-pointing parallel metal wire frames. You simply slide the bottom edge of your standard 1.25-inch thick poly board smoothly down into this channel. The framework is engineered to hold the board upright via gravity and tension, ensuring stable positioning without requiring mechanical puncture.
-
Q: Is this floor support frame safe to use outdoors on location in Hong Kong?
A: Yes, but we highly dictate that for outdoor use, you should place a heavy sandbag over the base framework. A large 4×8 feet foam board acts like a massive sail that can trap wind paths instantly. To ensure absolute structural safety on Hong Kong location sets, always anchor the support base to prevent accidental tipping.
-
Q: How is the rental fee calculated?
A: The rental fee is calculated on a 24-hour basis per rental period at Dream Scenes Studio Hong Kong.
-
Q: Is a deposit required?
A: Yes, a corresponding deposit is required for all equipment rentals in HK.
-
Q: What payment methods are accepted for the deposit?
A: We accept credit card authorization for the deposit, which is fast and convenient for local and international crews.
