No major event without people guidance systems

Wednesday, August 15, 2018

The importance of people guidance systems at major events can hardly be overestimated. They prevent crowds, avoid panic, direct queues and help prevent accidents. A well thought-out people guidance system is more than waymarking and elegant routes.absperrpfosten-mit-seil-89143_m.jpg

order instead of chaos

Put yourself in the visitor's shoes. You enter a strange place or at least a large room that you have not known in this way before. The guest does not know where to go and initially stops to orient himself. It stands in the way of both newcomers and participants leaving the scene. That's definitely not the welcome you want to give your guests.

With delimitation stands to which belts or cords are attached, you direct the flow of people in the right direction. They create targeted routes to the entrance and exit. In this way, you automatically receive your visitors in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere.

Waiting with a system

Whether in front of the event location or when going to certain attractions - wherever access control is required, visitors have to wait. A large crowd of people waiting is not pleasant. Those waiting lose their overview and feel treated unfairly upon entry.

Create narrow corridors with belt barrier posts or cord stands in which those waiting form a queue. Set up additional floor stands that provide information about the expected waiting time.

Tip : Design the corridor in a meandering fashion to avoid long queues reaching into the room.abgrenzungsstaender-mit-zugband-89157_m.jpg

cord or ribbon

Both options are excellently suited as people guidance systems. A combination is ideal for many major events.

A people guidance system made of cord stands , possibly also with a wall bracket for the cord, looks classy and is reminiscent of the famous red carpet. It is useful for arranging queues or for blocking off areas for visitors in a festive setting. The ropes act more like a request to follow the path and less like an order. The construction is a bit complicated for that.

Boundary posts with belts consist of barrier posts with belt cassettes in which the barrier tape is located. They are set up very quickly. Such people guidance systems have one
strong prohibition character, since the tensioned belt acts like a beam. Red and white ribbons in particular clearly show "Entrance prohibited". They are useful when access is dangerous, for example because there is construction work going on in an area.

Conclusion

When you need to forcefully mark a path or block an entrance, retractable tape barrier systems are your best bet.

However, you should largely do without people guidance systems with bands for exclusive and noble events. Instead, use the corded demarcation stands to discreetly and stylishly direct guests to pathways. For festive events, cords are a more elegant way to guide visitors.
