Make a statement for your VIP area with these gold ropes for hire. These pair well with both our gold and chrome posts to create an impressive VIP space.
Running a VIP space at your event? These gold ropes are perfect to work with our chrome or gold posts to elegantly section off areas. The ropes come with gold ends and a soft, textured feel. They can easily be attached to a wall or post.
How do I figure out how much barrier hire I need?
Although setting it up is straightforward, figuring out how many ropes and posts you’ll need is a bit of an art. For straight lines, you’ll always need one more post than ropes. For more complex setups, it’s good to draw it out first to make sure you’ve got it right. Remember, though the ropes are 1.5m long, they should “sag” a little, so plan for about 1.2m per rope.
Tensabarriers are easier to manage. They come with a post and a stretchable piece of fabric that recoils when it’s not clipped to another post. Measure the area you want to block off and divide by 2m to figure out the number of posts. You can attach up to three posts to one tensabarrier, making it simple to block off multiple sections.
Picket fences are 6ft (1.83m) long and don’t interconnect. They’re mostly for decoration rather than security, so you’ll want to leave a little space between them. To figure out how many you’ll need, take the size of the space you wish to enclose and divide by 2m per picket fence, leaving extra space for entrances and exits.
There are many different styles of barrier hire, which work for a number of different spaces and setups. We have three main types available which are ropes and posts, tensabarriers and picket fences.
Rope and post barrier hire is often used for events where a VIP space needs to be sectioned off, for example a red carpet entrance area. While the ropes and posts cordon off space, they are more for decorative value than any kind of security.
We offer rope barrier hire in a multitude of colours, as well as both chrome and gold-coloured metal posts. Ropes have a clip at each end to allow them to be attached to posts. These clips can also be in chrome and gold-coloured configurations.
Tensabarriers don’t have quite the same VIP look like ropes and posts do but are a bit more secure and are great for constructing queueing areas. Each tensabarrier post comes with a 2m retractable tape which can be attached to another tensabarrier, which can quickly be put together to section off space.
Our picket fences for hire are a great decorative way of sectioning space into areas and are particularly useful for big festivals and exhibitions. Our fences are painted white and are free-standing in supplied “feet” but cannot be linked to each other.
