| Crowd Control Posts |
Crowd Control Posts have been directing indoor public traffic for over a century. However, with the onset of the Internet, more specifically “Search Engines,” the term takes on quite a different meaning. The phrase “Crowd Control Posts” now is a valid search term for a “Police Newsgroup” or discussion thread about Stun Guns and Tear Gas.
Most manufacturers of these products continue to use this term, regardless of how vague it may seem. Other somewhat descriptive terms used are: Public Guidance Posts, Line Posts, Crowd Control Barrier and Crowd Control Stanchions. None of which describe the product as a gentle and dignified way to organize and guide people, which is exactly what they do.
Any suggestions as to what search term regular people would use to find these things on the Internet, would be greatly appreciated. Please write us at: info@glaro.net .
Crowd Control Posts can be found in a wide variety of public locations. You will find the same Crowd Control Posts being used in extremely different types of businesses, from: Banks, Theaters, Restaurants, Museums, Department Stores, Airports, Casinos, Supermarkets, Night Clubs and even Funeral Homes. In addition to businesses and public areas, decorating with the “Posts and Rope” systems is fast becoming the latest craze for Home Theater enthusiasts.
So what’s their purpose and why do I need them? The cold-hearted fact is that they basically funnel people. Large amounts of people can gather, and without unnecessary instructions, can be funneled into a singular line to arrive at a desired destination one at a time. This ultimately increases the capacity of the space allotted for your visitors while creating privacy for the person at the head of the line. Think of these Crowd Control Posts as similar to the lines that are painted on the highway: They do not confine in such a way that you can’t escape (or change lanes), but without them, traffic would come to a stand still. So, to keep traffic flowing smoothly, people need to know where they should be and where they are going. Crowd Control Posts are an invaluable tool for maximizing floor space and bringing order to an otherwise unorganized situation. At the same time, they can be an important decorating component.
Furthermore, signage can be added to any post in the system. These little “Billboards” can be used as a marketing tool, since you will have your visitor’s undivided attention while they are waiting in line. Or, used them for guidance information such as: “Enter Here.”
There are two types of Crowd Control Posts in this category:
Retractable Strap Posts – These have “Spring Loaded” straps and can be repositioned at will. There is never any slack because the excess strap retracts into the unit, thus always providing a neat appearance. Glaro offers the heaviest and most stable crowd control posts available that can guide your guests indoors and out in an organized, efficient, and dignified manner! Glaro’s “All Weather” finishes and its 100% Nylon retractable strap keep their products looking new for years.
Glaro’s innovative 4-way channel design, replaces old fashioned, breakable, protruding, plastic clips. This design provides a firm connection for strap ends, preventing the straps from releasing accidentally. A special internal braking mechanism insures that the strap returns slowly and safely so that posts are ideal for use even around children.

Traditional Posts and Rope – These are the ones that give you the feeling that you are in a really classy establishment. Their limitation is that the ropes are sold in fixed lengths, so you will need to know how they are being positioned before you buy them. But the elegant ambiance that these posts create far outweighs this minor inconvenience.
Glaro's Traditional Posts and Ropes offer a distinguished and respectable way to guide your visitors. The upscale designs, lustrous metal finishes and plush fabric ropes, create an atmosphere of sheer elegance. These graceful systems have guided people for many generations and never seem to go out of style.
Rigid or Fixed Barriers are also available, but have high safety concerns that can prevent people from evacuating the premises safely, and we do not recommend them for inside public buildings.
