01 — The Atlanta market
Aluminium box truss, towers, bases, and rigging hardware — the structural backbone that everything else in the rig hangs from. This page covers buying them specifically in Atlanta — who buys here, what the local work demands, and how to get fixtures direct instead of through a distributor markup.
Atlanta has one of the densest concentrations of large churches in the country alongside a busy wedding, concert and film production scene. Buyers often need gear that looks right on camera one week and carries a live congregation the next.
For lighting truss, Atlanta demand concentrates around church and worship services and weddings and receptions, with fixtures going into rooms ranging from hotel ballrooms to the smaller stages and studios around Alpharetta. The buyers are mostly event production companies and church production teams.
02 — Specification guide
Five decisions that determine whether a fixture fits the room.
Box truss is the standard four-chord structural section for spans and towers. Lighter duty triangular and single-chord sections suit decorative and short-span work only.
Load capacity falls off sharply as span increases. Always design to the published load chart for the actual span, not a general rule of thumb.
Conical and bolt connections behave differently in assembly speed and rigidity. Consistency across your inventory matters more than which system you pick.
Ground support towers with proper bases and outriggers let you build a rig in venues with no rigging points — a very common requirement in hotels, ballrooms, and outdoor sites.
Mixing truss brands and profiles across an inventory creates real problems on site. Standardising on one system is worth the up-front discipline.

Acue Express carries its own line and ships it from Van Nuys, California. For Atlanta customers that means three concrete things: direct pricing with no distributor tier, consistent stock so a multi-unit order arrives matched, and warranty support handled by Acue rather than a third party.
Buying direct gives Atlanta customers repeatable pricing across a multi-room or multi-campus rollout, so a second or third space matches the first.

Still unsure? Call 818-646-7526 and talk to someone who has hung these fixtures.
For most portable stage and event work, 12-inch box truss carries typical lighting loads over standard spans. Larger spans and heavier rigs move to 20-inch and above. The correct answer always comes from the load chart for your specific span and point loads.
Yes — that is exactly what a ground support tower system is for. Towers with weighted bases and outrigger arms let you build a self-supporting goalpost or box rig in venues with no overhead rigging capability.
Standard box truss assembly is straightforward with trained hands. Anything involving overhead flying, motorised hoists, or loads over people should involve a qualified rigger — this is life-safety work and local requirements vary.
Yes. Bases, hinges, junction blocks, couplers, outrigger arms, TV mounts, and clamps are all available individually so you can expand or repair an existing system.
Yes. We ship lighting truss to Atlanta and throughout metro Atlanta from our Van Nuys, California facility. Atlanta is a strong freight lane with reliable three-to-four-day transit, and the metro's warehouse infrastructure makes dock delivery straightforward.
Yes — call 818-646-7526. We will work through room dimensions, throw distances, power availability and quantities before you order. For Atlanta projects that usually saves more money than any discount, because the most expensive mistake is buying the wrong fixture count.
