There are five unique designs in the Shackle Plates line. Each one allows you the freedom of choice as you design the rigging requirements of your scenery, as well as meeting the changing needs of every production. Quick and easy to use.
Attach the Shackle Plate by bolting to the lowest point of the scenery directly in line with the Keeper Plate that you have bolted to the top of the scenery. The cable line used to suspend the scenery is attached to the Shackle Plate and then run though the Keeper Plates eye opening and finally onto the suspending point.
