Easydeck
Modular System
Easydeck is a modular performance system, perfectly suited for use in smaller
venues. Designed to provide temporary staging. It is a ‘no fuss’ system which is
simplicity itself to install and requires no special tools to assemble.
The Deck Panels are phenol coated birch ply and feature a
smooth surface and a non slip surface on opposing sides.
Easydeck conforms to the following standards, DIN 53799, BS6566:1 1985
IMPORTANT NOTE: Responsibility lies with the user to undertake their own risk assessment
following installation, to ensure the floor plan is set-out such that injuries resulting from falling
objects, e.g. furniture falling from staging, are either eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level.

All units and parts should be visually inspected before use. In the event of any damage the
parts should be taken out of service and returned to an ‘Approved Doughty Service Agent’
for inspection. (see our dealer locator on our web site for a comprehensive list of Authorised
Service Agents)
WHEN WORKING WITH EASYDECK, CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO AVOID THE FOLLOWING:
• Manual Handling injuries: Persons assembling the units should be trained in manual
handling techniques, especially when removing frame units that have been stacked for
storage purposes.
• Entrapment/Crushing: Keep fingers clear when lowering the floor panels into the frame
modules.
• Slips: Assemble the floor panels, ensuring the ‘top-side’ is suitable for the intended
purpose.
NB: Floor panels are reversible – one face ‘smooth’ and one ‘non-slip’.
• Trips: When assembled, the entire floor area must be level, stable and devoid of any
‘ramps’ between adjoining modules that may present a trip hazard.
• Modular separation: Modules must be firmly secured to one another using the proprietary
Joint Channels and Joint Clips provided.
• Collapse: Modules that are stacked must be positioned and secured using proprietary
Riser Brackets.
• Falls: Handrails should be fitted where there is a risk of injury from falling.
