Equipment Rental
As well as carrying one of Dublin's largest ranges of demonstration models for people to try out in our shop we also make this range available for hire. This gives consumers access to professional kit for a special occasion, and gives professionals access to specialist items for a one-off job. Our 'try before you buy' policy also means that if you decide to purchase the item within a short time of hiring it we will deduct that hire fee from the purchase price.
