Expo Hire stocks glass display cases for exhibitions, product launches, retail pop-ups and museums across England and Wales. The range covers lockable glass showcases in multiple sizes, tower showcases, flat display counters and display plinths. All cases are delivered clean and in good condition.

What's available

Lockable glass showcases protect high-value or fragile items while keeping them visible from all sides. They are available in multiple footprint sizes to suit different stand layouts. A standard showcase has a glass top, glass sides and a lockable door, with an internal shelf to present items at the right height. Showcases are the standard choice for jewellery, watches, medical devices, collectibles and any product with a high unit value.

Tower showcases are narrow and tall and suit jewellery, trophies and items that benefit from eye-level presentation without a wide footprint. Flat showcases with a low profile suit watches, coins and flat items where the viewing angle matters more than vertical display. Display plinths are solid surfaces at varying heights used to present single items: a plinth at 900mm brings a product to hand height, while a plinth at 1100mm lifts a smaller item to eye level.

Events that use display cases

Exhibitions at the NEC and ExCeL use lockable showcases as standard for any stand displaying products that should not be handled unsupervised. For technology, jewellery and medical device companies, a lockable showcase protects the product while keeping it visible throughout the show.

Product launches use showcases to present the hero product as a centrepiece. A single showcase at the focal point of a launch space, lit from above or below, gives a product a premium presentation without requiring extensive set design. Retail pop-ups and temporary shops use showcases to present merchandise securely where customers can view items without unsupervised handling.

Ordering

Display cases are available individually. Expo Hire delivers across England and Wales. Consider internal lighting when the showcase is being used for a presentation or launch context where visibility in a dim venue matters. Book at least two weeks ahead for exhibition orders.

No Need to Worry About Security Deposits

With Expo Hire, there’s no need to stress about a damage deposit when placing an exhibition hire order. We provide a complimentary minor damage waiver scheme to cover small damages, so you can relax if an item gets minor damage. Please note that excessive or negligent damage may incur charges at 10x the hire price. For complete details, please refer to our terms and conditions.

How Delivery and Collection Works

We offer a fixed carriage charge for many major exhibition centres in the UK, which includes timed delivery and collection. You can check if your exhibition centre is covered by entering the venue postcode on our carriage calculator page. For most exhibition centres, this fixed delivery charge is £100, and there is a minimum order value of £500.

When placing your order, it’s important to provide your hall and stand number. This ensures we can deliver directly to and collect from your stand, even if you’re not present. Delivery should correspond with your exhibition setup day, while collection should align with the breakdown day.
