Delivery & production information

Café Barriers in Use

Every café barrier is supplied as a complete, ready-to-assemble kit with the graphic printed to your design. Choose a full kit for a barrier that stands on its own, and add extension kits to keep the run going.

Full kit

2 polished stainless-steel posts with domed caps
2 weighted chrome bases, 360mm across, with a non-slip, non-marking ring underneath
2 chrome cross bars that latch into the post collars
1 printed fabric graphic with pole pockets top and bottom

Extension kit

1 post and 1 weighted base
2 chrome cross bars
1 printed fabric graphic
Joins onto the post of a full kit, or onto another extension kit

Each barrier in an order can carry a different design at no extra cost, so you can mix menus, offers and brand panels along the same run. Nothing needs tools: the graphic slides onto the cross bars and the bars clip into the collars.

All three widths share the same height, so mixed runs line up neatly. The width is measured between post centres.

Barrier	Graphic size	Post centres	Overall height	Base to base
1000	850 × 850mm	1060mm	955mm	1420mm
1500	1350 × 850mm	1560mm	955mm	1920mm
2000	1850 × 850mm	2060mm	955mm	2420mm

Frame: stainless steel with a polished chrome finish
Bases: 360mm diameter, weighted, with a non-slip, non-marking plastic ring
Graphic: dye-sublimation print on Display Polyester or Fabric Mesh, single or double-sided
Fixing: pole pockets top and bottom, sleeved onto the cross bars

Post height and collar details can vary very slightly between hardware batches.

A full kit has a post at each end. An extension kit has one post and borrows the end post of the barrier next to it, which keeps longer runs tidy and cuts the cost of every extra panel.

Each post collar takes up to four cross bars, so a run can turn a right-angle corner around a seating area, or branch off in a T. Any run starts with one full kit; everything after it can be an extension.

Layout	What to order	Approx. length
Single barrier by the door	1 full kit	1.4m to 2.4m
Straight shopfront	1 full kit (2000) + 2 extension kits (2000)	About 6.5m
L-shaped terrace	1 full kit + 3 or 4 extension kits	Two sides of your seating area
Enclosed seating with an entrance gap	2 full kits (one each side of the gap) + extension kits	To suit your licence area

Send us a sketch of your frontage with measurements and we’ll work out the most economical mix of widths for you.

Display Polyester

A smooth, tightly woven fabric that gives the brightest colour and the sharpest detail. It suits most café frontages and is the one we recommend unless your site is very exposed.

Fabric Mesh

An open-weave fabric that lets wind pass through, so it is the better choice for windier spots such as exposed corners, seafronts and open squares, where a solid graphic would catch the wind. Colours are a touch softer and the graphic is slightly see-through up close.

Single or double-sided?

Single-sided graphics are printed on the street-facing side. Double-sided graphics are printed on both faces and finished with no visible horizontal stitching, so your branding reads properly from the pavement and from the tables. Choose double-sided if people will see the barrier from both directions.

Graphics are dye-sublimation printed, which bonds the ink into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so it will not crack or peel. Supply artwork as a print-ready PDF (AI or EPS also accepted) with fonts outlined, images embedded and full bleed.

Set colours in CMYK: Pantone references are matched as closely as the process allows
Keep logos and text inside the safe area, away from the pole pockets
For double-sided barriers, supply a page for each side
Each barrier can carry a different design at no extra charge

Not sure where to start? Our in-house design team can set up your artwork, and every order gets a free artwork check and a proof to approve before anything is printed.

Slide the graphic’s pole pockets onto the two cross bars, then clip each bar into the post collars
Stand barriers on firm, level ground such as paving or decking
Take barriers down in winds over 20mph to stop them toppling or being damaged, and sooner if heavy rain is forecast
Never lift or carry a barrier while the graphic is still fitted between the posts and bases: the weight of the bases bends the cross bars. Slide the graphic off and unclip the bars first, then move each post separately
Keep graphics away from heavy traffic fumes and prolonged strong sun where possible to slow fading
Wash graphics at 30° without detergent and let them dry fully before storing

With daily outdoor use, expect a graphic to look its best for around a year. Replacement graphics can be ordered on their own whenever you refresh your branding or menu.

Graphics are printed to order once you approve your proof. The chrome hardware is shipped separately from the graphics, so your kit may arrive in more than one delivery. Graphics are sent by tracked courier.

Need barriers for a launch or a licence deadline? Call us on 01736 719111 before ordering and we’ll confirm what we can do on express turnaround.

In England, tables, chairs and barriers on the public highway usually need a pavement licence from your local council. Many councils set conditions on barrier height, colour, branding and where they can stand, so check your licence before you order. Barriers on your own private forecourt do not normally need a licence.

Measure the length you want to cover, then start with one full kit and add extension kits until you reach it. A 2000 full kit covers about 2.4m base to base and each 2000 extension adds a little over 2m. Send us your measurements and we will suggest the most economical mix.

The weighted chrome bases keep them steady in normal conditions. On exposed or windy sites choose Fabric Mesh, which lets wind through, and take barriers down whenever wind speeds go above 20mph to avoid them toppling or being damaged.

Yes. Every barrier in your order can carry its own artwork at no extra cost, which is handy for menus, offers and opening hours alongside your logo.

Yes. Graphics are sold on their own as well, so you can refresh your branding, change a menu or replace a worn panel without buying new hardware. Call us with your barrier widths.

Single-sided graphics are printed on one face. Double-sided graphics are printed on both, with no visible stitching across the design, so they look finished from the street and from your tables.
