Event stanchions are a versatile and essential tool for any event planner. They can be used to create a variety of configurations, from simple crowd control barriers to elaborate walkways and displays. Stanchions are also available in a variety of colors and styles, so you can find the perfect ones to match your event’s theme.
TYPES OF EVENT STANCHIONS
There are two main types of event stanchions: retractable and post and rope. Retractable stanchions are the most popular type, as they are easy to set up and take down. They also have a variety of features, such as locking mechanisms and wheels, that make them ideal for use in a variety of settings.
Post and rope barriers are a bit less flexible than retractable stanchions yet they are versatile in their own way and a more attractive choice for upscale and higher end events such as weddings and formal events.
