When the Stand Manager 52 is positioned on its rear panel, the main compartment lid faces upward, and skid rails elevate the rear panel to shield it from abrasions and moisture. The lid of the main compartment can be easily opened using a durable zippered closure that runs around the top and bottom of the case, as well as down one side. Inside the main compartment lid, a stretchable pocket provides space for accommodating lighting umbrellas or background support components. Both the lid and rear panel are reinforced for added crush resistance, and the overall durability of the case is enhanced by tall wheel housings that safeguard its corners from impacts on escalators and curbs.
With the lid securely zippered shut, the Stand Manager 52 can be easily transported on its wheels and bottom bumper, measuring up to 137 cm in height, 32 cm in width, and 20 cm in depth on the exterior. For convenience in handling and transportation, handles are affixed to the top, bottom, and both sides of the case, making it effortless to pick up and place it in car trunks or onto elevated surfaces. Additionally, dual carry straps, which can be connected using an integrated handle wrap, enable the case to be lifted with the top lid facing upward. The Stand Manager 52 also includes adjustable webbings along its sides, which, when tightened, reduce the case's depth by up to 9 cm.
To ensure that the contents remain secure during transport, multiple tie-down straps equipped with convenient side-release buckles prevent any shifting. The internal bottom lining along the wheels is reinforced to withstand the weight of any light stands placed against it. For added security, the two adjoining zipper pull tabs on the main compartment feature shackle holes. While traveling, you have the option to use a separately available TSA-accepted lock to fasten the two pull tabs together, preventing the sliders from opening the zipper chain and enhancing the security of items stored inside the Stand Manager 52.
The case is constructed with nylon throughout, and its underside is coated with polyurethane, providing excellent weather resistance. To ensure user-friendliness and convenience, the wheels are designed to be user-replaceable, making it easy to replace them if they wear out over time.
