We designed a Stanchions posts range thats just a little bit different to every other. We wanted a ground up product range that is built on decades of learnings. At Queue tech our products are built with this knowledge at the forefront of our mind. It begins with sustainability. Our 5yr warranty ensures that you have peace of mind, your investing in products that will always perform and at the same time ensure our world is not burdened with unnecessary waste.
Stainless steel bases, post tubes and spring mechanisms ensure issues related to moisture or grease vaporization are an issue of the past. Products that can be used inside or out without fear of oxidation.
A single piece moulded tape end designed to ensure a smooth tight fighting engagement which is both durable yet light. The tape end has an integrated sprung locking system to ensure there is no accidental tape end release.
Our stainless steel springs have ground edges this ensures that the moulded housing that retains them does not suffer from abrasion.
A next generation belt breaking system ensures the release of a barrier tape end cannot cause injury. The retractable belt is not under high tension even at near maximum extension. This ingenious design ensures that even at short extensions there is the same tension. Sufficient to retract the webbing safely and cleanly.
A double mechanical screw fixing ensures the top of the webbing cassette cartridge cannot be accidentally separated even in the most harsh conditions. Many competitor products including leading brands do not have such a feature and this causes premature product failures in the field.
As standard our posts have ADA & EAA compliant bases with minimal leading edge ensuring none of our products can cause a trip hazard. These features often come with additional costs from leading brands.
An industry leading webbing extension as standard. Not a premium. Ensuring the numbers of posts can be minimised or simply to ensure posts cannot be tipped over because the webbing is extended to its max. Saving you cost and ensuring the most efficient layout while at the same time adding to your customers safety.
Queuetech’s post diameter options are unique and allow us to offer webbing extensions beyond the ordinary up to 22.8m (75ft) in extension! This with all the same features noted above. The perfect solution for large expansive areas or events.

A stanchion is a freestanding or fixed post used to guide, direct or restrict pedestrian movement. Stanchion posts are typically paired with a rope, chain or retractable belt to form a barrier line, and are most commonly made from stainless or powder-coated steel. Suitable configurations can support retail, hospitality, transport, events and other public-facing environments where queue management and crowd flow need to work together.
At Queue Tech, we offer a premium range of stanchions built for both functionality and style. Whether you’re organising foot traffic in busy retail environments or enhancing queue flow at public venues, our metal stanchions and stanchion posts deliver the ideal combination of strength, stability, and sleek design.
Crafted to support high-volume use, these systems ensure safety and clarity in any indoor or outdoor setting.

A classic stanchion post connected by rope, giving a polished, premium look suited to hotels, theatres, galleries and VIP areas where appearance matters as much as function.
Stanchion posts with a built-in retractable webbing cassette, allowing the barrier to extend or retract as queue lengths change. This is the most practical format for retail, transport hubs and high-footfall environments.
High-visibility stanchion posts, typically yellow, red or chevron-patterned, designed for workplace safety applications where clear hazard marking matters as much as crowd guidance.
Stanchion posts and webbing finished in your brand colours, with custom graphics or signage options, suited to retail, events and hospitality environments where the stanchion becomes part of the customer experience.
Every Queue Tech stanchion is built around stainless steel bases, post tubes and spring mechanisms, chosen to resist moisture and grease vaporisation so the post performs consistently indoors or outdoors. Build quality is what separates a stanchion designed for years of daily use from one that isn't.
Our stanchion posts use stainless steel throughout the base, tube and internal spring mechanism, avoiding the oxidation issues that affect lower-grade metal or painted-steel alternatives in humid or outdoor environments.
Post style options range from a slimline 50mm/2" profile up to a heavy-duty 75mm/3" post, paired with base styles from a standard rubber base through to super-heavy and magnetic bases — allowing you to match post diameter and base weight to your expected footfall and environment.
The most suitable stanchion material depends on the environment and how the stanchion will be used. Steel stanchions generally offer greater weight, stability and impact resistance, making them a practical choice for high-footfall or outdoor environments. Plastic stanchions are lighter and lower cost, but can be less stable in exposed or high-traffic locations. Aluminium stanchions are lighter than steel and suit temporary or portable setups, though they typically offer less load-bearing stability for permanent installations.
Our stanchion posts are engineered to work across various industries - from airports and exhibitions to cinemas and corporate lobbies , providing safety and clarity in any indoor or outdoor setting.
Stanchions in construction environments provide a practical way to mark temporary work zones, guide pedestrians and restrict access to areas where work is taking place. Portable stanchions can be quickly repositioned as site layouts and access requirements change.
Manage till queues, entrance flow and promotional zones with a stanchion system that can be repositioned as store layouts change.
Use steel stanchions to organise waiting guests at the bar or entrance before they're seated, keeping waiting areas tidy without feeling like a barricade.

Support high-footfall, safety-led environments with durable, accessible base designs and rapid-deployment stanchion systems suited to fast-response queue management.
The right stanchion system depends on your environment, footfall and the look you want to project. Use the points below to narrow down your configuration before you order.
Queue Tech stanchions combine genuine configurability with stainless steel construction and a transparent, long-term value proposition.
Stanchions are a versatile base for several of our barrier systems, including rope barriers and wall mounted barriers. Add signage posts nearby for clear directional guidance, or view our full crowd control barriers range for heavier-duty needs.
A stanchion is designed to guide pedestrian movement and connect to a rope, webbing or chain barrier, and is usually freestanding or easily repositioned. A bollard is a fixed, load-bearing post generally used to protect a structure or restrict vehicle access, and does not typically connect to a barrier line.
This depends on the webbing length and layout you choose. Queue Tech's stanchion posts offer webbing extensions up to 22.8m (75ft) as standard, which can reduce the total number of posts needed compared with shorter industry-standard webbing lengths.
Some stanchion configurations are suited to outdoor or semi-public environments, but suitability depends on the specific post finish, base type and level of exposure. Confirm the selected configuration is appropriate for your location before installation.
Yes. Stanchion posts and webbing can be finished in your brand colours, with custom graphics or signage options available through our custom branding service.
For high-footfall or outdoor environments, a super-heavy or roller base generally offers better stability than a standard rubber base. Speak to Queue Tech about matching base weight to expected footfall and surface type.
Rope stanchions offer a classic, premium appearance suited to hotels, theatres and VIP areas. Expandable belt stanchions use a built-in webbing cassette that extends and retracts, making them more practical for retail, transport and other high-footfall environments where queue length changes frequently.
A minimum of two stanchions is generally required, one to anchor the webbing and one to extend and hook it onto. Longer or multi-directional layouts will typically need additional posts
No. Queue Tech stanchions are designed for crowd control and queue guidance rather than fall protection or load-bearing guardrail use. Guardrail and fall-protection stanchions used on construction sites are a different product category with separate safety standards.
