This set of 2 stanchion posts is an affordable yet stylish way to manage crowds. Each stand measures 39 inches tall and is equipped with a 15-pound weighted round base for added stability. The stanchion posts are constructed from steel and feature a matte black finish. The classic tulip tops have a polished chrome finish that matches the hooks at the ends of the rope. Included with a purchase is a 6.5-foot-long black velvet rope that is soft to the touch. The crowd control rope easily attaches to the top of a post. Each stanchion has a 4-way adaptor, thus allowing users to expand a system with more ropes. This set of 2 posts is therefore ideally meant for blocking a doorway or for roping off an area, such as within a gallery or a museum. When purchased in multiple sets, the stanchions can be used to queue up guests in an organized and space-saving manner. These crowd control posts are typically found in retail stores, banks, airports and restaurants. The stanchion posts may be used outdoors; however only during dry weather. It is recommended to bring the poles indoors in-between uses and during inclement conditions.
