'ABOUT US

Since our start in 1997, Ready Set, Inc. has been the standard bearer for set-building in the NYC metro area. But that only tells part of the story of who we are and what we do.

We know we are a service company first. And that’s good because, let’s face it, in this industry, there’s no such thing as an ‘easy job.’ As our client, we know you are often caught between your client’s demands and the constraints of time and money. Therefore, every new project, regardless of size, has complexity and variables that must be reconciled and resolved.

That’s where Ready Set’s expertise and customer service approach comes in. When you reach out, your Producer will consider your job with a ‘we can do that’ attitude, and then will call upon their years of experience on the shop floor manufacturing and delivering custom solutions to create your estimate. Everyone at Ready Set has access to the accumulated wisdom from our three decades of problem solving. Across the entire team of producers, the production team, management and a world wide web of suppliers, we have ample resources to tackle anything you can throw at us. Couple that with our continuing desire to grow, learn and create new opportunities for our team, and we know we’re a great fit for you!

The list of services and our portfolio as shown on our site only touch the surface of how we can help you. Our goal is always to finish a job to your complete satisfaction, as well as your client’s! In the process, if we can improve our methods, learn new techniques and continue to expand, that’s our reward!

As our client, you can be confident in knowing that your job is being looked at as an integral organism, rather than an integer. We want you to be able to focus on the aspects of your job you enjoy, and not have to worry about the ‘nuts and bolts.’ During the production phase we’ll send you drawings, pictures and updates and we always encourage you to visit our shop, as seeing what we’re working on is as important as knowing you don’t need to.

Our Brooklyn facility spans a full block with 6 access points on two streets to accommodate loading in and out to and from every section of our 30,000 square foot location. We are located minutes away from the myriad event spaces, venues and studios that make up our arena. But that doesn’t mean we don’t deliver out-of-town solutions.

Our Custom Shop specializes in building for demanding studio photography projects, film and video, public space events, retail and showroom display, fine art fabrications, gallery build outs, furniture, props and beyond. 

And importantly, when your budget drives you more to a DIY solution; our Rental Shop stocks pre-made floors, shapes, backdrops and set kits that you can transport and assemble. Of course, we can offer customization and painting to assist you when you receive the products.

In short, after nearly three decades, the possibilities are still endless and the future is still unfolding.
