On Your Bike! Benefits of Barriers For Valuable Exhibits

Iconic bikes don’t come much more recognisable than the roaring engine and sleek looks of Harley-Davidsons’. An event we visited early this year saw a venue where enthusiasts of the brand turned out in large numbers to view brand new and vintage models, with some exhibited behind our chrome tensa barriers.

From bike to motorbike...

The outlet has been an expert dealer in the bikes for 90 years and celebrated with a stunning display of bikes from all the decades. The first retail premises selling Harley-Davidsons opened in Chicago in 1904, showing the long history of the brand. Called the Serial Number One, the initial plans for a bike showed a product that was more akin to a bicycle, than the large, speedy machines we associated with motorbikes today.

Exhibit with confidence!

It didn’t take the manufacturers that long to produce fast, innovative models, which we were delighted to view when we visited the major European outlet of the bikes. Models ranged from vintage World War creations, to those made in very recent times. Our barriers were used to protect exhibits, and we think they are the ideal furniture hire product for valuable items - but why are they so effective? Read on to see why our black or chrome tensa barriers are the must-have item for exhibitions of all kinds.

1. Add to the exclusive feel

For this event, we installed our chrome tensa barriers, which have a polished post and blue webbing. The design is stylish and perfect when you’re looking for smart crowd control. But, we also have ropes and poles, featuring a chrome post and braided red ropes. These look really sophisticated and they’re great for contributing a VIP feel to occasions. Use them for exhibits or for crowd control by marking out places to stand, queue or to define executive areas and lounges in venues.

2. Create a visitor-free buffer

One of the most common uses for our tensa barriers is to provide a polite indication where visitors can/cannot go. This is really effective in terms of smooth crowd management, as you’re able to set up the barriers exactly where you’d like people to enter/exit buildings - which may be essential in terms of fire policies. When you have very precious exhibits, such as invaluable Harley-Davidsons, then you’re able to display them with confidence they’ll be untouched when you select our tensa barriers.

3. Utilise all the space available

Tensa barriers give you the tools you need to cordon exhibits, direct people into, around and out of buildings, but they’re also a fantastic space saving option. Many of us may have had the experience of waiting in a queue that isn’t ‘managed’ in some way - a line of people can quickly fill a smaller space and those waiting may be unsure of where they’re standing. To preserve space within your venue, whether this is in an airport, exhibition, retail venue or other location where you expect larger numbers of people to gather, then our tensa barriers can help you to do exactly this!
