Everything you need to know about flight cases

Panels with the tough Hexagon surface, aluminium profiles and metal corners. The hardware (latches, handles) is genuine Adam Hall and Penn Elcom.

A tough panel with a hexagonal texture — strong, relatively light and easy to clean. The standard for professional flight cases.

Proven brands Adam Hall and Penn Elcom: butterfly latches (lockable too), recessed handles, metal corners and edges.

Braked Blickle 100 mm as standard — quiet, reliable rolling. For heavy cases we specify higher-capacity castors.

In the Czech Republic. We deliver across Czechia and the European Union.

The construction is built for repeated transport: aluminium edges and metal corners take the hits, the surface resists abrasion.

We adapt the build to the environment — state sealing and protection requirements in your inquiry and we’ll design a suitable solution.

With normal care, years of daily use. The hardware is also replaceable, so the case can be kept in shape over time.

A flight case is built for repeated professional transport: rigid construction with aluminium profiles, metal corners, quality hardware and an interior shaped to the contents. A regular trunk protects only partially and wears out after a few trips.

Depending on construction and hardware, typically tens to hundreds of kilograms. We size the load capacity to the contents — state your equipment’s weight in the inquiry.

Depends on dimensions and equipment. We design the construction so the case adds no unnecessary weight — for carry trunks we choose a lighter build, for wheeled cases toughness is the priority.

Typically 7–9 mm with the Hexagon surface; depending on stress and case size we use other build-ups too. We propose the thickness to match the purpose.

Yes — reinforced construction, sealing, tougher hardware and special surfaces. Describe the environment (construction site, outdoor events, industry) and we’ll propose the build.

The standard is Hexagon (tough and easy to clean); other surfaces and colours are possible on request — state it in the inquiry.

Just the dimensions of the equipment you want to transport (w × h × d), or the outer limit (e.g. doorway, van). We design the rest.

Not at all. Send approximate figures, photos or a spec sheet — we fine-tune the dimensions together before production.

An online configurator: choose the case type, dimensions, colour and equipment (drawers, compartments, castors…) and send the design straight as an inquiry.

Yes. We build to order — atypical dimensions and shapes are routine briefs.

From small accessory trunks to large wheeled cases. We’ll discuss specific limits with your inquiry.

Yes, we design interior dimensions with an allowance for foam inserts and padding so the equipment fits exactly.

Absolutely — photos, a drawing or a product link speed up the design significantly.

Yes, for touring, equipment rental and industry we build unified series including marking.

We typically prepare a design with a quote within a few working days of receiving your materials (dimensions, requirements, photos).

Of course — we fine-tune the design together until it fits. Production starts only after your approval.

State the outer limit (door height, load bed) and we design the case to fit — castors included.

Yes — one case with compartments/drawers for the whole set, or a set of cases that fit together logically (e.g. for touring).

We account for airline weight limits in the design and propose a lighter build and dimensions within limits — state it in the inquiry.

Foam CNC-cut exactly to the shape of your equipment — every instrument, tool or part has a defined place and doesn’t move.

Full-extension slides with locking — the drawer pulls out fully and won’t close on its own on a slope.

Yes — fixed, removable or adjustable. We design the layout around the contents.

Grommets, separate compartments and cable spaces per the design — cabling doesn’t tangle with the equipment.

Yes, we routinely combine drawers below and compartments above — try it in the 3D designer too.

Yes — workstation cases with a slide-out worktop and protected space for equipment (a mobile control room).

With soft-lined compartments cut exactly to size, with no contact with hard parts of the case.

Partially yes — depends on the construction. A foam insert can be re-cut to match new equipment.

Professional PE/PU foams of various densities — firmer for load-bearing parts, softer where they touch sensitive surfaces. We choose the combination by the contents.

Yes — foam inserts are replaceable. Send the new equipment’s dimensions and we’ll make a new insert for your existing case.

Yes, inserts can be removable as a whole (tray), so you can carry the equipment outside the case too.

As needed: lid sealing, space for desiccant bags or ventilation elements — describe your storage and transport conditions.

Yes, we can build 19" rack rails into the case for audio and IT equipment — state the number of U in the inquiry.

By agreement, yes — grommets, power strips, lighting or connection points to your brief.

1) Send a no-obligation inquiry, 2) we prepare a design and a quote, 3) after approval we build, 4) we deliver. Simple.

The price depends on dimensions, materials and equipment. We prepare the design and quote free of charge based on your inquiry.

No. Both inquiry and quote are non-binding — a contract arises only when the order is confirmed.

Usually within one working day.

Depends on the complexity and scope of the order — we confirm the exact date together with the quote.

Payment terms are specified in the quote.

With a damp cloth and ordinary non-abrasive cleaners. The Hexagon surface is undemanding.

Get in touch — the hardware is replaceable and most damage can be repaired.

Yes, we use standard proven hardware (Adam Hall, Penn Elcom) that is commonly available.

A new insert can be cut — including when you change the equipment you carry in the case.

Somewhere dry. The case itself then protects the contents from dust and ambient moisture.

The statutory warranty applies; details and possible extensions are stated in the quote.

The Hexagon surface just needs wiping with a damp cloth and a mild cleaner. Check and tighten the hardware occasionally.

Yes — latches, handles, corners and castors are replaceable. We service older cases too.

Usually yes — we replace the damaged parts (corner, profile, panel) and return the case to service.

Somewhere dry, ideally on braked castors or a pallet; keep lids closed so seals don’t deform.

After assessing the condition, usually yes — send photos and a description of the problem.

Regular hardware checks, a clean surface, not overloading the drawers and gentle handling — the case then lasts years of daily use.

A trunk or case with foam cut to the camera body, lenses and accessories — every piece has its place and nothing touches.

A case for the mixer and players with top and front access, cabling space and a wheeled chassis for fast deployment.

Vertical soft-lined compartments cut exactly to the panel — no pressure on the display surface. We routinely handle sets for whole walls too.

A robust case sized to the cabinet, or transport lids and castors — depending on how often you move.

Large wheeled cases with compartments for stands, cables and small items — everything for the show in one.

Yes — for keyboards, drum hardware, guitars and other instruments, with custom foam or padding.
