15' Retractable Belt Stanchions FEATURES
- Inside RETRACTA-BELT
- Straightest Post Proof
- Tough Posts
It's what's on the inside that counts.
With more than 20 years of use and abuse in airports, we have perfected every detail of the RETRACTA-BELT® and engineered the highest quality product on the market.
Seeing is believing!
Watch our rooftop test where we try, but fail to break our premium sloped base stanchion.
The toughest stanchions on the market.
Bored-kid tested.
We’re control freaks.
Not all stainless steel is created equal.
Built to last.
Born in airports over 25 years ago, RETRACTA-BELT® stanchions have been tested to withstand the use and abuse of millions of people large and small.
By building our products in-house from raw materials to finished jobs, we ensure 100% quality in every step.
We use marine-grade 304 stainless steel for our outdoor posts, which is virtually rust-proof. Competitors use 201 grade, which will rust within months of exposure to the elements.
Not only do we offer an industry-leading Ten Year Warranty, we make sure that any improvements are reverse compatible with legacy products.
