Guide to Retractable Barriers

To help our customers find the perfect retractable barrier we’ve created this short guide. By understanding the basic options available as well as the finer points of deployment, care and installation of a retractable barrier system, you should be able to find the ideal belt barrier unit for your needs.

How Does a Retractable Barrier Work?

An expandable barrier uses a retractable strap attached to a pole or wall mounted slot. A corresponding attaching point is required to complete the barrier or queue system. When using a system based on poles, a retractable barrier system can become very large and in theory there is no limit to how complex and wide reaching the queue system can become.

It is this incredible versatility that has helped retractable safety barriers become so popular and widespread. Often seen in areas as diverse as airports, coffee shops, cinemas and gymnasiums, stretch barriers have become a vital tool to control pedestrian traffic.

The Advantages of Belt Barriers

There are many immediate attractions for using a retractable barrier. The astounding speed and ease with which one can setup a fully operational retractable barrier system is one of the main reasons for their surge in popularity.

There are other reasons for this popularity; these include the large choice of colour options both in the strap and post itself, the relative low cost for such high quality units, the adaptability and ability to create completely bespoke systems and the durable, rugged construction of many retractable barriers that promise many years of service.

Expanding barrier displays can be very easily altered, lengthened, shortened and repositioned with minimal hassle. This ensures that any business or institution is well prepared for a sudden increase in the amount of pedestrian traffic passing through a specific area.
