Safety is the priority of businesses everywhere. Whether you’re working on the street or have a remodeling project in your store or office, you want your guests, employees, and the people working on the project to be safe. A good safety barrier system can make that happen. At VIP Crowd Control, Inc., we know that not all safety barrier systems are the same. Here are some of the benefits of a retractable belt system.
Storage and Transportation
A retractable belt stanchion is easily stored and transported. Stanchions with retractable belts can be loaded into most small cars and taken anywhere they are needed. For a company that has multiple floors, buildings, or workplaces, these stanchions can be taken to each project site in turn without having to incur the extra expense of purchasing a new system for each site. When they aren’t needed, they fit conveniently into a designated storage area, ready for the next project.
Visibility and Recognition
Everyone knows what a retractable belt barrier looks like. Because people have already encountered this type of barrier, there is no question about what they are supposed to do. Whether it is to avoid an area or follow the belts to an appointed place, the system itself brings security by quickly communicating to newcomers that there is something to avoid or follow.
Convenient and Customizable
The retractable belt feature of a retractable safety barrier system is what makes it such a good system. The belts and stanchions can be easily adjusted by 1 or 2 people, depending on the weight of the stanchions. Simply detach the belt, move the stanchion, and reattach the belt. Multiple configurations give you the opportunity to provide protection for whatever type of space is involved in the construction or pathway layout. When you are done, the whole system is easily stored, with the biggest pieces being the bases of the stanchions. Many systems come in different colors, too!
