Crow Control Barriers

After a long search and testing numerous samples we have lunched a range of crowd control barriers. There are two main types the tensabarrier style retractable crowd control barrier and the traditional rope and post pedestrian stanchion. We felt the key to the crowd control barriers and retractable belt barriers was firstly stability so we have opted for a filled stable base and reliability of the belt mechanism. These retractable tape barriers need to be reliable so we have tested our extensively. Many samples we had failed after a few tests. The retractable mechanism either failed totally or lost tension so the tape would not fully retract. The conclusion? Cutting quality on retractable barriers is counter productive. Fortunately we have found a suppliers who can supply industry leading quality at a very competitive price. We chose two types of retractable tensabarrier stanchions. A single tape and a double tape. The single tape is available in red blue black and green tape and a choice of silver or black stanchions. Our double tape retractable barrier is ideal for banks and high traffic areas and is available with a silver stanchion and black tape.
For more traditional application we have top quality stainless steel stanchions with the use of rope barriers. Our full range of crowd control barriers can be found at our dedicated web site http://www.discountbarriers.com/
