Scheel Brace Cleat

A Brace Cleat is attached to scenery flats and used to fasten a Stage Brace to the scenery.  This is a newer version which has a groove to allow the stage brace hook to rest flat against the scenery.  Also available in a traditional non-grooved version.

Stage Braces are an older method of securing flats (normally used along with lashing), these braces are made with pieces of wood and have adjustable clamps for the length.  Stage Braces connect to a scenery flat using a Brace Hook which hooks into a Brace Cleat that is attached to the scenery flat.  The other end of the Stage Brace is attached to the floor via a curved piece of strap steel which is bolted to the floor with a Steel Stage Screw (see accessories tab).
