At Rental Stop, we offer a wide selection of pipe and drape options to help you define, divide, and decorate any space with ease.
What Is Pipe and Drape?
Pipe and drape systems use a framework of adjustable uprights and crossbars with fabric panels to create soft, stylish partitions or backdrops. They’re incredibly easy to set up and can instantly turn a blank room, gym, warehouse, or ballroom into a tailored and professional event space.

Pipe and drape isn’t just for hiding unsightly walls (though it does that beautifully!). It’s perfect for:
• Backdrops for weddings, photo booths, and head tables
• Trade show booths and vendor displays
• Room dividers for multi-use event spaces
• Stage backgrounds for presentations or performances
• Walkways or entryways that guide guests with elegance
Options at Rental Stop
We offer a variety of fabric colors and lengths to match your event’s theme and space requirements. From crisp white for weddings to black or navy for corporate events, we have what you need to make your space shine. Our pipe and drape inventory includes:
• Standard 8-foot height (ideal for most events)
• Adjustable height options for taller spaces or more dramatic designs
• Multiple fabric styles, including poly, velour, and sheer
• Color options like white, black, red, and more available upon request

When you think of planning an event, fencing may not be the first thing that comes to mind—but it should be.

At Rental Stop, we offer decorative fencing solutions that are as functional as they are beautiful.
Whether you’re organizing a wedding, corporate event, festival, or private party, our white picket and split rail fences provide the perfect finishing touch.

Our white picket fencing is a customer favorite for good reason—it instantly adds charm and structure to any event space. Clean lines, a fresh white finish, and a timeless design make this fencing ideal for:
• Weddings: Use to line aisles, define ceremony areas, or create photo-worthy backdrops.
• Private Parties: Add a polished look to garden parties or backyard celebrations.
• Corporate Events: Create defined spaces for VIP areas, registration, or lounges.

This fencing isn’t just for show—it’s also practical. It helps gently guide guests through your event without the need for obtrusive barriers or signage.
Split Rail Fence: Rustic Appeal with Structure
For events with a rustic or outdoor vibe, our split rail fencing is a perfect fit. Its natural wood finish and simple design add warmth and authenticity while helping you manage crowd flow or section off spaces. Ideal for:
• Country-themed Weddings or Receptions
• Fall Festivals or Pumpkin Patches
• Petting Zoos or Children’s Areas
• Equestrian or Farm Events
Split rail fencing can define space without making it feel closed off. It’s a fantastic way to blend function with a down-to-earth aesthetic.

“Miracle on Stadium Street”
Posted by rentalstop in General on November 30, 2010
Miracle on Stadium Street
It all started about 2 months prior to the 2010 NBA All-Star Game when Rental Stop was approached by the National Basketball Association (NBA) regarding tent rentals for the big game at the new Dallas Cowboy Stadium. The tents were needed to cover the security gates at all the entrances to the stadium. We were honored that the NBA had chosen to use our Services and Tents for the largest crowd in All-Star Game history.
The install earlier in the week went well. It looked like another perfect and smooth Rental Stop Event was going to happen on Sunday. However, we had one unforeseen complication; Mother Nature had different plans for all. The forecast was calling for snow or some type of freezing precipitation late in the week but the real question is how much and where in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
While we were anticipating the weather we were also getting ready for the 
arrival of some close business friends from the North East Coast. They operate an event and party rental store and were coming back from the American Rental Association (ARA) Convention that was held in Orlando, Florida. The reasoning for them to show up in DFW was that a Blizzard was hitting the east coast and their flight was cancelled so they decided to visit us for a few days. They thought they were getting away from the white stuff by coming to DFW. They were in for a rude awakening. That very next morning after their arrival we all awoke to a white blanket of snow. By 8 am the Dallas Fort Worth area had a total of 4” snow and it was still coming down quite heavily.
Normally, light snowfalls do not affect tents; unfortunately the tents that were erected per the NBA requirements did not have sidewalls on them. With no sidewalls installed on the tents prohibited us to use tent heaters that would help eliminate accumulation of heavy wet snow on top of the canopy top. Accumulation of snow on top of the tents could possibly cause the tents to collapse thus creating issues that are not needed right before this huge event. Plus we wanted to show the entire Dallas Cowboy Organization including Jerry Jones we were able to handle an unusual situation.
With that said, we were blessed however to have good fellow tent friends in town that knew how to work in the snow a
nd to deal with the tents. After 24 long hours, a total of 12” of snow and a lot of hard work, the snow stopped, the skies cleared, the tents were still standing, and the crowds started to come for the big event.
We thank God for this “Miracle on Stadium Street” he showed us this past February. He tested us and gave us just enough to handle and we thank Him each and every day. We thank all who were involved on and off the site as well as those who prayed for the safety and the positive outcome that was achieved. This Event was truly a Team effort for all involved. Thank you LORD.
