The main driver for Outdoor use is material, followed by color options. Both Aluminum and Stainless Steel can be made Weatherproof or Weather Resistant, while Plastic is always ready for Outdoor conditions. The Economy line materials can be made Weather Resistant, which means they can stand up to wet conditions but are susceptible to rusting over long periods of exposure. However, the Premium line materials can be made Weatherproof which is rust resistant for extended Outdoor use. Base material also plays an important role. Outdoor models come with either an ABS base, typically in black, or Recycled Rubber that can either be solid or fillable with sand, water, or other such materials for stability. These bases can be used indoors as well, however many of our indoor models come with matching material bases such as polished Aluminum or Steel.
Another important factor for outdoor use is visibility, which is why our Outdoor models are available in vibrant colors such as yellow or high luster silver.
Permanent mounting options are available for most Queuing System Stanchions that we carry. Fixed bases are permanently attached to the floor and Removable bases have a socket permanently attached to the floor but the Line Post can be removed. Removable bases can be standard size sockets, Mini for reduced visual impact, or Magnetic bases for easier assembly / disassembly.
However, we prefer you contact our team of Crowd Control Experts as these options require more planning to ensure the correct Crowd Management Solution is chosen.
Your satisfaction is our business too. That same belt tension, along with interaction with your staff and patrons, puts stress on the Stanchion Post and Base. How the Crowd Control product is assembled, the post to base connection, impacts the ease to assemble and connection durability. We have chosen models that have EVERstraight® or EVERstraight® PRIME Technology. EVERstraight® PRIME features an innovative self-straightening pipe thread connection. EVERstraight® Technology features a 2.5″ thick threaded steel pipe that ensures posts remain straight for their lifetime. Both versions have an easy no tool assembly. If the post was ever to come loose you can easily re-tighten with a simple twist. No lifting the base or tools required, and the post is guaranteed not to lean even if loose.
A Stanchion is an upright pole or post that can be either Fixed, Removable, or Portable with a method for connecting one Stanchion Post to another. The methods of connection include Retractable Belt Straps, Ropes, Chains, or Panels to create channels for Crowd Control Systems. Line posts come in a variety of materials including Aluminum, Stainless Steel, and Plastic for both Indoor and Outdoor use.
Aluminum is an affordable, yet durable option available in multiple colors including black, yellow, or polished finishes that can be polished brass or silver chrome plated. Stainless Steel is heavy duty, high quality material available in different grades of steel and finishes. We carry an economical 201 alloy and a long lasting 304 alloy for heavily trafficked areas, both are available polished or with a satin finish for additional luster. Plastic products are designed to be outdoors made from high density ABS.
There are many belt lengths available in the market, all within a tight range from 7’ to 16’. Retractable Belt Stanchions can typically only handle up to 16’ foot Belts before they are subject to tipping / leaning or fast snap back, which is dangerous to your patrons. Belt length capability is determined by the Stanchion Base material and weight, our Economy lines have lighter bases and our Premium lines have heavier bases.
That said, the longer the belt the less stanchions you need. We have chosen models that are either 10’ for lower prices but more belt compared to many cheap Stanchions on the market, or 15’ for maximum belt length to cover larger areas. Note: we recommend to extend your belt at least 6’ to reduce stress on the mechanism, plan your Queue Management System wisely!
The models we have chosen have belts that are Compatible with most major brands.

Your Safety is our business. Retractable Belts are under a lot of tension to create a proper Traffic Control Barrier. When the belt end is released it can snap back to the Stanchion if there is no mechanism to control the speed. We have chosen models that have E-Z Back Technology which features the Safest and Quietest slow retracting belts on the market. All models also feature a safety lock to reduce the chance for unintended belt release.
This includes our Economy line, make sure to check competing products to ensure they include technology that will ensure the Safety of your patrons.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits discrimination against and ensures equal opportunity for persons with disabilities. In relation to Crowd Control Stanchions two main categories are visual impairment and the use of wheel chairs.
Any Crowd Control Barrier must be detectable by a person using a cane to find their way. Single Line Belts are too high to be detected so a Dual Line Retractable Belt is required. Dual line belts also help keep children from easily ducking under your Line Management System.
The regulation also states that lanes formed by Crowd Control Barriers must be at least 36” wide for wheel chair access. This applies to 90 degree or less turns as well, however for greater than 90 degree turns, (180 degree, etc.) the distance must be at least 48” wide.
There are also fire safety compliance and crowd management regulations based on locality which speak to easy and safe evacuation practices. We offer products with Magnetic Breakaway Belt Ends. Other options are available as well so speak to a Crowd Control Expert today for more information.
