We are the inventor of the original retractable queuing barrier – setting the market standard for crowd control products.
Whether you want to manage your queuing space, or cordon off access to a restricted area, there will be a Tensabarrier® for your needs. Tensabarrier® allows you to enhance space, while reducing risks of costly accidents that could be caused within your business area.
Unlike competitor products, Tensabarrier® has an originally patented braking system that incorporates twin brake shoes. As a result, the webbing falls to the floor upon release before slowly retracting back into the stanchion. Tensabarrier® is one of the safest stanchions on the market and has been designed using the highest quality materials and extensive expertise.
Patented locating mechanism for accurate concentric positioning of post to the floor plate ensures queue lines remain straight.
6 neodymium magnets are mechanically secured inside the base cavity with a screw fixing unlike lower-quality, glued-in solutions.
Tool-free installation as you secure the floor plate to site surfaces using a high-strength adhesive. Remove and re-locate without damaging the floor.
Bevelled edge of floor plate reduces trip hazard risk.
Other competitors offer longer belts, but this is only made possible by using thinner webbing, most commonly of lower grade, while keeping the same diameter post. For as long as the post diameters remain the same, longer belts always mean poorer quality webbing, which wear far less well than Tensator’s thicker, better quality material.
Made from 0.89mm military grade fabric, the Tensabarrier® belts are significantly thicker than other retractable stanchions, meaning it is less likely to suffer from degradation over time. Unlike competitor products the thread on the belts will not unravel if cut. Tensator’s digital dye printed webbing offers a higher quality print.
The Tensabarrier® has been designed and refined over its lifetime to ensure it is at the optimum height. At 970mm / 38” tall, it is deliberately shorter than competitor products to prevent people going under or over it. The Tensabarrier® is harder to knock over due to having a lower centre of gravity and less likely to catch on clothing or bags.
The Tensabarrier® steel post offers flexibility in terms of colours and finishes – something that is limited when purchasing an aluminium post from competitors. The Tensabarrier® post material at 1.5mm is thicker than competitor products at 1.1mm, making it a harder wearing product than cheaper alternatives and less likely to get damaged.
Tensabarrier® is the safest retractable barrier on the market – our cassettes have the most unique braking system on the market the webbing retracts 2.5 seconds slower than its closest competitor; making it the safest solution for your customers.
All cassettes have an anti-tamper tape end that prevents the webbing detaching accidentally from the post when pulled out and connected. This connects to all competitor products and is marked with the Tensator® stamp of quality, for instant brand recognition.
