Manage crowds at corporate awards and gala dinners with this tensabarrier - black tape - hire. Each 6kg post features a 2-metre retractable belt.
Directing guests at corporate awards and evening receptions requires clear visual boundaries. You can manage pedestrian flow using this tensabarrier - black tape - hire. The dark finish creates a strong contrast in event photography without distracting from your main presentation. Each unit stands 1 metre tall and weighs 6.00kg, providing a stable base for busy exhibition halls. The £18.00 ex-VAT hire price makes it straightforward to calculate your budget for large-scale crowd management.
Black retractable barriers blend into formal settings. You route attendees past registration desks or section off VIP areas at conferences. The 2-metre black tape pairs with any coloured linen hire you select for your dining tables. Guests navigate your venue safely while your staff maintain order. The self-retracting mechanism recoils the belt when you unclip it, keeping walkways clear of trip hazards. Connecting multiple posts creates a continuous physical boundary across wide hotel lobbies or exhibition centres.
Organising a large-scale event involves protecting valuable assets and defining restricted zones. You secure these areas by linking multiple barrier units together. Expo Hire includes a free minor damage waiver on every order, giving you peace of mind during high-traffic gatherings. We operate 11 regional depots across England and Wales, delivering commercial-grade equipment directly to your venue from £40 ex-VAT. You track your delivery vehicle live on the day with an SMS ETA, helping your team plan their setup schedule.
Coordinating an evening reception often requires additional supplies. You might need glassware hire for the bar or catering equipment hire for the kitchen. Booking your entire inventory through one supplier reduces administrative work. You pay no security deposit when ordering through our website. Prices and live stock levels display immediately on the product page. Add the required number of barriers to your basket and confirm your dates online.

Unless the two person carriage charge has been paid for, deliveries and collections are made by a single driver, who has 15 minutes to deliver or collect your order.
Our drivers are not allowed to take items up or down stairs or into lifts, and all deliveries need to be made within 50 metres of the vehicle. Any delays beyond the standard delivery time caused by access issues or items not being ready will be charged at £120 per hour or part thereof.
If a driver arrives and delivery or collection is impossible then unfortunately a wasted journey charge will apply. You will be sent a live tracking link so you can monitor your delivery in real time — our drivers do not make phone calls to notify of arrival times.
If access to collecting the hired equipment is denied, blocked, or impassable, a wasted collection journey will be automatically charged. Any parking tickets issued to vehicles whilst executing a delivery or collection will be charged for whilst we appeal.
