Retractable Belt Barriers

Our retractable belt stanchions have a clean, modern style and give a feeling of professional security.

Retractable posts are available in metal and heavy-duty plastic bodies. Aluminum and steel stanchions are designed to withstand long-term weather conditions. Plastic stanchions, however, may also be used outside.

Pro Tip: The retractable belt cartridge can be easily swapped out on a post so that you can change the length/style of your belts as needed.

Retractable belt barriers make it easy to quickly organize a crowd in a professional way – all while staying on budget.

Retractable Belt Barrier Comparison

A retractable belt barrier differs from a rope barrier stanchion as it has built-in retractable belts rather than hanging ropes. This kind of retractable barrier is especially valuable in line formations, as its belt conveniently stretches or retracts to accommodate custom lengths and gives much-needed control to both small and large numbers of people in a line.

Easy to install, our affordable and durable stanchion posts are portable and quick to set up so that you can reuse them for all of your crowd flow needs.

When choosing the right high-quality retractable belt barrier for your business, consider these three factors:

Your business profile. Heavy-duty safety plastic stanchions will look out of place at a luxury hotel. Likewise, stylish and sleek metal belt barriers will not serve the intended purpose in a manufacturing facility.
Your crowd profile. Crowds come in all types. If you’re laying out a simple retail line system, then single belted stanchions will work fine. However, if you are expecting larger unruly crowds, need to stop people from ducking under a single belt, or have a heavy equipment or safety hazard situation on your hands – then consider a double or triple belted stanchion.
Your marketing and message. Before you settle on the perfect retractable belt barrier consider if this is a good chance to create a custom printed belt. A great marketing opportunity for your business and brand is at your fingertips. Or you can reduce crowd confusion and hassle for your staff with clearly printed messages on your belts. Think: ‘VIP Members Only’ or ‘Pass Required for Entry’.
