eZ-Hoist believes that scenic automation should be easy but not rudimentary.

eZ-Hoist was started by ZFX, Inc. founder Robert Dean.  He felt quite frankly that the same productions his hard
working staff put their heart and soul into providing exceptional flying effects where being limited by basic scenic automation.

No one goes into this business with the goal of creating an average production – so we created an automation system with the goal that your only limitation should be your imagination.

eZ-Hoist’s professional scenic automation components cost almost the same as the entry-level ones, while remaining easy to incorporate into your production. These devices are assembled by real American craftsmen, and designed by dreamers.

Isn’t it time that your automation caught up with your imagination? Contact us to learn what we can do for you.
