Pipe & Drape Uprights

Pipe and drape uprights form the vertical structure of professional pipe and drape systems, supporting crossbars, drapes, and accessories across a wide range of event and venue applications. They are a core component for creating backdrops, draping runs, and temporary installations.

Pipe & Drape Uprights for Professional Event Systems

Uprights determine the overall height and stability of a pipe and drape installation. Different upright formats are used depending on ceiling height, layout requirements, and frequency of use.

What Are Pipe & Drape Uprights?

Pipe and drape uprights are vertical poles designed to connect securely with compatible base plates and crossbars. WeddingMart supplies professional-grade SpliTex uprights that integrate within standard pipe and drape systems.

Telescopic (Adjustable) Uprights

Telescopic uprights feature an extendable inner section, allowing height to be adjusted on site. SpliTex V2 telescopic uprights use a twist-lock mechanism to extend and secure height, rather than traditional push-button systems. This provides smoother adjustment and reduces wear during repeated use.

Fixed-Height Uprights

Fixed uprights provide a consistent, predetermined height and are often selected for repeat installations where layouts and ceiling heights remain constant. They offer operational simplicity and fast setup.

Designed for Professional Hire and Venue Use

Both telescopic and fixed uprights are designed for durability and repeated assembly. Twist-lock mechanisms reduce maintenance requirements, making these uprights suitable for professional hire stock and venue-owned systems.

Compatibility Within Pipe & Drape Systems

Pipe and drape uprights are compatible with standard crossbars, base plates, and accessories, allowing systems to be expanded or reconfigured as requirements change.

Choosing the Right Pipe & Drape Upright

When selecting uprights, key considerations include required height range, load requirements, and how frequently the system will be adjusted or transported. Choosing the appropriate upright type helps ensure efficient setup and long-term usability.
