🔧 DIY Tips

Setting up rope barriers yourself? Here's what matters:

🔧 What you'll need

📐 Setup tips

  1. Plan on paper first
  2. Space posts evenly
  3. Keep lines straight

⚠️ Common issues

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference from retractable belts?

Rope barriers look more premium - typically brass or chrome posts with velvet ropes. Better for hotels, theatres, events. Retractable belts are more practical for high-volume retail.

Do you supply barriers?

Setup only - we position barriers you've purchased or hired. Event hire companies supply the equipment.

Floor-mounted or freestanding?

Both - freestanding posts we position optimally. Floor-mounted posts we can install with appropriate fixings.

Events setup?

Yes - red carpet areas, VIP queues, event entrance management. We set up, you can reconfigure as needed.
