The PiXAPRO Autopole set (235-400cm) is a heavy duty and durable solution for a functional background support and grip system. The black finished metal construction provides extra support and protection during use, and is suitable for extended periods of time. Each Autopole allows for a wide range of adjustments between height and length, making it suitable for different sized backgrounds and backdrops. This is the ideal stand for backgrounds and when use in conjunction with a professional background, helps to make a professional style and great addition to all fields of photography and videography.
Each Autopole can be steplessly adjusted in height between 2.35m and 4m in height, and as each Autopole is individual and not directly connected to the other, it is capable to set these as wide apart as required, this makes them ideal for a wide range of different lengths of background and backdrops. They have been designed for multiple styles of use, as they are able to be used vertically from floor to ceiling and horizontally from wall to wall, allowing for unlimited possibilities and styles.
Each Autopole features a unique lever locking mechanism, designed to exert tension and pressure in order to make sure that they stay in place during use and prevent them from moving or potentially collapsing. At each end of the Autopole, there is a solid rubber suction-cup in place to provide a non-slip grip to your ceiling, wall or floor, with the design of each rubber-cushioned foot created to minimise any potential marks or damage during use. This makes these suitable for use in a wide range of environments such as studio or simply used in-home.
Constructed with a high-quality and tough metal design, the Autopoles offer a strong support for your backgrounds and backdrops, capable of holding a maximum weight of up to 15KG. Due to this design, not only can they be used with backgrounds, they can also be used with lighting and grip arms, opening up their potential endlessly. This makes these the ideal support system for every photographer’s set-up due to the wide range of uses available.
The Autopole set is a high-quality and dependable stand set, helping to add a professional style and result to a wide range of photography. The adjustability and the large maximum weight capacity create endless possibilities for use, and the locking mechanism and cushioned feet keep everything safe and protected during use.

Bolt 2 should not be loosened under any circumstances, so if it feels a little on the loose side, please tighten with an Allen key
Once Bolt 1 has been tightened, Pull the handle down on the lever, (3) and until it locks, and then your Autopoles should be ready for use. If the lever doesn't go all the way down, you might need to shorten the Autopole by a few centimetres more, to give the Autopole enough room to extend and wedge itself between the ceiling and wall (or the two walls if being used horizontally).
Once extended, please be sure to leave a small gap between the top of the pole and the ceiling or wall (about 1-1.5cm or so) which will give the Autopole enough room to extend and hold itself firmly in place once the handle has been returned to its “Locked” Position.
Pleas Note, You will need at least two Convi clamps to do this (one for each bracket), however if you are planning to use heavier backgrounds such as larg vinyls etc. we would recommend four convi-clamps.
You can attach the feet to the bottom of the stand by slotting the thinner end of the cap into the bottom of the stand, here is a demonstration of how to do this:

Floor to ceiling poles for backgrounds
Delighted with this product. I had to cut one pole 6 inches shorter as my studio has a slightly sloping ceiling but this was no problem. Quite large when not extended so will extend if your ceiling is quite high. Like the lever locking mechanism that is spring loaded so you cannot exert too much force on the ceiling. These came with two useful clamp on accessories that you can attach background or rim light flash heads and other item to quite simply. This is a good rival for the Manfrotto autopole system. Advantage over tripods is that you don't have to worry about the legs - there aren't any!

Sturdier than others
I was looking for a support system that would be strong enough to hold a 2.7m backdrop without having to worry about it falling over. I've had cheaper ones in the past but were very unstable. You won't regret getting this Pixapro support system.
