Our Special Double Decker Booth Design Service in India with the brands ensuring maximum exposure and floor space with raised, two level exhibition pavilions. We offer our Double Decker Booth Design service that integrates structural knowledge and artistic design, so each booth will not only be aesthetically pleasing but will also be safe. In our double decker booth design service, we handle all the design and installation processes including the original concept up to the last stage hence offering a smooth experience to the clients in the entire process. This strategy enables exhibitors to create a greater visual impression without having to occupy more floor space. Due to this reason, businesses that want to shine among the crowd in the show floor are increasingly opting to use double decker formats.
Exhibits Expo offers reliable Double-Decker Booth Design Services in Newcastle for exhibitors looking to maximise floor space, create a striking presence, and maintain the highest standards of structural safety. Every project is planned with engineering precision, ensuring your two-level booth is not only visually impressive but also fully compliant with venue regulations. Our in-house design and engineering teams work together from concept to installation, delivering seamless execution without unnecessary delays or unexpected modifications. With extensive experience across exhibition venues in Newcastle, we create double-decker booths that combine innovative design, functionality, and structural integrity.
A double-decker booth is not a one-storey stand which has a second storey attached on top with a bolt, but rather an entirely different engineering issue that will alter the manner in which weight, access and visitor flow is designed at the very first day of the project. We have a Booth Design process that starts by getting the knowledge of your product mix, number of guests and how you would like the upper deck to be utilised before a single concept is drawn on the paper.
Each plan is sketched considering how it will be built and not how it will be photographed in the portfolio or social media post.
Height provides visual appeal, though it also creates some danger, unless the structural planning is taken seriously in the first place, particularly in the crowded Newcastle exhibition centres. Our Two-Story Booths The design procedure is built on proven engineering and not on trial and error; thus, your upper level is sturdy and not shaky.
The visitors must not fear to walk in to be afraid that the structure cannot bear their weight, but that will be based solely on the calculations happening behind the scenes, not the finish at the top.
The majority of stalls constructed dwell on the appearance of a double decker booth. The first thing we pay attention to is whether it is even permitted, structurally, and can be constructed within the time frame of your show in the venue in Newcastle since a beautiful render will do no good when the venue refuses to approve it. The feasibility review of our double decker booth will occur prior to the finalisation of design work, not after.
Getting this step correct early will save you the expense of redesigning or last-minute rejections closer to your show date, and there is no more room to make changes.

These differences are best comprehended at the outset in order to make realistic expectations prior to investing in a double decker format of your next show.
The impressive double decker stands are calculated on calculations that most visitors would never see, but every exhibitor must enquire about before signing off on a design. Our structural team collaborates with the designers at the earliest level of the concept; hence, fated ideas are evaluated on their construction viability before anyone becomes attached to a design that may not pass the inspection.
This is the engineering-first solution that allows a truly safe double decker stand to be distinguished by instead of appearing as the part on a render.
All the loads of all the double-deckers are actual – people, furniture, equipment, and decor – and all those loads must be calculated, not guessed at. We consider it as an irreducible phase of any project, no matter how simple the general design on paper might be.
Such a high standard of rigour ensures your visitors, your employees, and the reputation of your brand are on show on day one, when structural doubt is unacceptable.
Maximum stand height, structural documentation and multi-level build approval rules exist in every exhibition venue in Newcastle and can be highly varied across venues. Forgetting a requirement can slow down your booth or may result in last-minute redesigns in build-up week, when there is already a time constraint.
By managing this administrative level ourselves, clients are unlikely to experience delays in the approval process directly, although the process occurs at all levels behind the scenes.
As a trusted Double-Decker Booth Design Company in Newcastle, Exhibits Expo delivers a complete solution that combines creative design, structural engineering, fabrication, and installation under one roof. From the initial concept to the final handover, every stage is managed by our in-house team, ensuring clear communication, consistent quality, and full compliance with venue requirements. By integrating design and construction into a single workflow, we eliminate coordination issues, reduce project delays, and deliver a seamless exhibition experience.
Not all design studios possess the structural know-how to render to a Newcastle show floor a double decker concept on paper. Being a double decker booth design agency and having in-house engineering capability, we do not have that distance between creative hope and construction.
This mix is what makes brands revert to us directly to taller, more ambitious stand formats they would not want to take on with an entirely creative studio.
Not all exhibitors require two levels, but in some categories, the increased height and privacy area warrants the additional complexity and additional cost of engineering the extra height correctly.
In these types, a double decker stand can be very easily paid back by higher-value client interactions conducted off the main floor in a more intimate space.
The price of a double decker booth is very sensitive to the complexity of the structure and the use of the upper deck as well as the speed with which a venue approves documentation, and in this case early planning is more important than with single-level stands.
The average six to nine weeks between initial brief and installation is necessary in most double decker projects, with time to revise structures and make any changes suggested by the venue.
At Exhibits Expo, our Double-Decker Booth Design Agency in Newcastle transforms your initial exhibition brief into a complete brand experience. We begin by understanding your objectives, products, audience and how you want visitors to interact with your booth. Our creative team then develops a tailored concept that balances visual impact, functionality, and effective space utilisation. Through detailed 3D visualisation, you can experience the proposed booth before fabrication begins and provide feedback with confidence. Once approved, our production and installation teams bring the concept to life while maintaining the approved design details.
We are the designers and engineers of double decker projects for the exhibitors around the city of Newcastle, and we connect with the venue authorities at major exhibition halls and centres of the city. Our clients are located in {Local_Hubs}, where we handle projects regularly.
Irrespective of the Newcastle of your office, our structural and design teams can visit the site to determine the feasibility of the project before any obligation is taken to ensure that there is no surprise later in the project.
Should you wish to have a two-level presence in an upcoming exhibition, Exhibits Expo will be able to evaluate feasibility, manage venue approvals, and provide a fully engineered stand under consideration of just one responsible team, all the way to final walkthrough. Height will have an effect, but it will only work when the engineering of it is properly considered initially.

Usual minimum footprint
Weeks before approval deadline
Usable area from the same floor
Refusal ends the build
Four of these eight items do not appear on a single storey project at all. They are the reason two storey design costs more per square metre, and the reason a build gets approved rather than refused.
Whether two storeys makes sense for your footprint, venue and budget — before any drawing starts.
Rendered from the aisle and from the upper deck looking down, because both views sell the stand.
Two plans drawn to scale, with the staircase footprint shown honestly against your usable area.
Frame, deck, connections and staircase, drawn to the standard your venue’s engineer will assess.
Live load for the upper deck to the venue’s stated kN/m², stamped by a qualified engineer.
Filed with the organiser inside their window, tracked, and chased until written approval arrives.
Staircase width, headroom, handrails, occupancy limit and escape route checked against the manual.
The pack your supervisor hands the venue inspector on build-up morning, so nothing stops the build.
A stand contractor is easy to judge on one job. These clients judged us and booked the next one — across different countries, venues and build regulations
On a single storey stand the immovable date is build-up. On a double decker it is the organiser’s structural submission deadline, which falls six to ten weeks earlier and does not move.
Each of these started as a blank floor plan. Photographs are from the show floor, not renders.

A double decker costs more than a single storey stand of the same footprint, and the increase is not only structural. These are the five lines that change.
| Variable | What it changes | How to reduce it |
|---|---|---|
| Structural frame | The deck and its supports are engineered rather than assembled. Heavier materials, more connections, more weight to ship. | Nothing safely. This is the cost of putting people above the ground. |
| Engineering & certification | Structural drawings and stamped load calculations from a qualified engineer, per venue and per edition of the show. | Reuse the certified design across shows where the venue accepts it. |
| Organiser charges | Most venues levy a fee for two storey builds, often calculated on upper deck area, plus a structural review charge. | Fixed by the venue. Budget for it at feasibility stage rather than being surprised. |
| Build-up time | Two storey stands take longer to erect, sometimes requiring an early access day and extra crew. | Book early access at the same time as the space, not afterwards. |
| Lost ground floor | A staircase consumes four to six square metres of the level that faces the aisle — the most valuable area you have. | A mezzanine over part of the footprint needs a smaller stair and less structure. |
Earlier than you would for a single storey stand, and the reason is the structural submission deadline rather than production time.
Most venues close their two storey submission window six to ten weeks before build-up. Working backwards from that — engineering takes about two weeks, design freeze must precede it, and concept and feasibility need three weeks before that — a comfortable start is sixteen to eighteen weeks before the show opens.
If you are inside twelve weeks, tell us anyway. Sometimes a mezzanine rather than a full deck, or a venue with a shorter window, still makes it work. If it does not, we would rather design you an excellent single storey stand than miss a submission and leave you with crates in the hall.
Everything exhibitors ask us before they commit — including the questions where the honest answer is that we are not the right supplier for you.
A double decker exhibition stall is a two level space which enables the exhibitors to use both the floor area and the vertical space, thus increasing the usable exhibition space by a factor of two.
Product displays, brand messages and interaction with the visitors is done at the ground floor and the upper floor is used as a private meeting space, lounge or a VIP space.
Some of the main factors are design of the load bearing, location of the stairs, railing security and the structural stability inspection to make sure that the stall will support the top floor and the flow of visitor foot traffic.
The height of the venues and their heavy load capacity should be checked by carrying out a feasibility test as well as a structural drawing should be checked and signed by the owners of the venues before fabrication commences.
The overall design and planning process is affected by structural complexity, material selection, size of stalls, and customization level in both floors.
It is reliant on the height limitations and rules of the venue, and this is the reason why a feasibility check is done early enough to ensure the format fits in a certain venue.
Tell us the show, your stand size and how many sides are open. We come back with a rendered concept and an honest cost band — before you have committed to anything.
