The pinnacle of exterior confidence

Not all belt barriers are created equally.  When situations call for outdoor usage, you can count on our outdoor products to stand strong against the harshest elements mother nature can conjure.  

Pictured above at WeatherMaster all-weather retractable belt stanchions from Queue Solutions.  The yellow powder coat finish protects the stainless steel posts from deteriorating, while the 100% recycled rubber base provides both the stability and durability needed for years of exterior crowd control abuse.

WeatherMaster barriers come with an unmatched selection of belt lengths.  Standard WeatherMaster 250 posts are available in 11' & 13' options.  WeatherMaster 300 stanchions have 16' long span belts.  And the all-new WeatherMaster 335 employs a 35' extra long span retractable tape.

Need more belt coverage or need to be ADA Compliant?  We get it.  WeatherMaster Twin units come complete with a dual belt system.  One belt half way up the stanchion post and another at the standard top location.  Mix and match the belts as well.  Maybe you want a diagonal chevron belt on the bottom and Caution Do Not Enter belt on the top.  Done.  No problem.

Combine these options with 46 standard color and message belts, and the WeatherMaster series of outdoor retractable belt stanchions has you covered in every possible situation.

Usually exterior stanchions like aren't in stock and ready for same shipping...not the WeatherMaster.  Almost every option is ready to hit the loading dock and ship off to locations around the world the same day or the next day.  Pro Stanchions long-standing relationship FedEx can have these to you overnight, or as soon as you need them.

None of the 46 standard belt options get the job done for you?  No problem, we'll customize your belts with any color and/or message you want with custom belt screen printing.  Want multi-color logos or printing instead?  Digital dye-sublimation custom belt printing allows every type of customization you desire.

Don't waste your time or money on any other belt stanchion.  Do your research.  If it doesn't specify it's made for exterior use, it will NOT hold up.  We've had too many clients say they bought stanchions that they thought would work outside, not understanding that untreated metal and outdoor elements don't mix.  Stanchions are heavy (or at least they should be).  Which means that shipping costs can take their toll if you have to replace equipment sooner than expects.

Invest wisely.  Choose the right equipment for the right situation.  WeatherMaster outdoor retractable belt stanchions are the right choice for all your exterior crowd control needs.

Pro Stanchions doesn't mess around.  You may think you want to buy cheap stanchions, but you don't.  You want durable, trusted stanchions at the cheapest possible prices.  We're not here to sell you crowd control equipment, we're here to get you the equipment you need at the prices you want to pay for it.

Grand Island, NY

It's that time again.  This year's season of giving resulted in two young gentlemen on behalf of Pro Stanchions' and its clients, making extraordinary donations to local food banks.  Pro Stanchions charitable program "Fighting Child Hunger" makes donations based qualifying purchases of crowd control belt stanchions, rope posts and wall mount belt barriers.

The first of the donations was once again made at Huth Road Elementary School in Grand Island, NY.  23 boxes (276 individual bars) of Kutoa health bars were donated during the school's annual holiday food drive.  The food drive annually supports the local Grand Island Neighbors Foundation.  Cody Schoen, the proud second grader pictured above, shows off Pro Stanchions' 3rd consecutive year of donations to the annual food drive. This was Cody's second year of donating to the food drive (last year Charlotte Sidway Elementary in Grand Island, NY) and first at Huth Rd. Elementary.

The second of the donations, consisting of 28 boxes (336 bars in total) of Kutoa health bars, was made by Tucker Schoen at Veronica Connor Middle School in Grand Island, NY.  This was Tucker's 3rd year of contributing to the annual food drive (2 previous years at Huth Rd Elementary) and his first at Veronica Connor Middle School.

In total, the 51 boxes of vegan, gluten-free health bars provided 612 individual bars to the local Grand Island food pantry.  With Kutoa's promise to donate a meal to hungry children both nationally and globally, this donation will help feed 1224 hungry mouths. 

None of this is possible without our clients.  So again, we thank the Pro Stanchions customers that have helped us help others.  Thank you.

Thank you Kutoa.  Thank you, Huth Rd. Elementary.  Thank you, Veronica Connor Middle School.  Thank you, Grand Island Neighbors Foundation.  Thank you, Tucker and Cody. 

Happy Holidays from Pro Stanchions.

ALL proceeds from the sales of our all pink retractable belt Stanchion for the Cure now donated to Breast Cancer Awareness & Research

Our Stanchions for the Cure initiative has grown over the years and we found it only right to take it to the highest level.  In the past, we've done specials where all proceeds from the sale of our exclusive all pink Stanchion for the Cure were donated during the month October.

Now these exclusive custom powder coated stanchions will be provided without profit. Pro Stanchions will now donate all the profits from these stanchions to Breast Cancer Awareness and Research charities, all year long, for any order.

Pro Stanchions is proud of our tradition of charitable giving and alongside our clients, will look forward to continuing to explore more and more ways to give back.

Confessions about the inadequacies of 2" retractable belts:

"You just aren't satisfying me anymore" - Branding 

"Only barriers with small belts say that size doesn't matter" - Advertising

"I want a thicker belt!  I want big logos tattooed all over it.  Is that too much to ask?!" - Marketing 

For decades, the 2" wide nylon retractable belt set the standard for an industry.  But over the years, research has proved that MORE is needed.  Thin 2" belts just aren't getting the job done. The cries have been heard in the past.  There have been overcompensating 6" wide belt options offered by manufacturers, however, the lengths are shorter and the costs associated with them are high.

4 years ago however, 3" Xtra Wide retractable belt stanchions and retractable wall mount belt barriers were introduced to the Crowd Control and Safety Barrier industry, and their beefy widths have been creating belt envy since!

Since their introduction, Custom Printed Belts have restored their confidence with Xtra Wide 3' belt barriers.  How couldn't they?!

It's like comparing a bumper sticker to a bill board....a carrot to an eggplant...you get the idea.

Xtra Wide models have you covered in every application and price point, from Premium to Pro Grade Economy, including:

• Xtra Wide Retractable Belt Stanchions
• Xtra Wide Dual Line Retractable Belt Stanchions
• Xtra Wide Wall Mount Retractable Belt Barriers
• Xtra Wide  Retractable Belt Safety Barriers

Pro Stanchions understands you want that Xtra 3".  You want the Xtra width on demand when the moment arises and don't want to let your queues down.  These thick, Xtra Wide belts won't leave you hanging, they are are in stock and ready for fast shipping or custom printing.

Xtra big is Xtra better.  Don't leave your custom printed belts unsatisfied, call Pro Stanchions today and grow that Xtra 3".

Grand Island, NY.  April 22, 2015

How do you provide unobstructed views while limiting physical access to an exhibit?  PEZ Candy needed this solution for both a vintage candy machine display and their custom produced Orange County Chopper, and Pro Stanchions was honored to assist.

The custom Post N Panel system with clear acrylic panels by Visiontron Corp. of Hauppauge, NY, provides the ability for full visual inspection without obstruction.  This aesthetically pleasing satin aluminum barrier increases the limitation of physical contact much greater than typical belt or rope stanchions by forming a solid surface obstacle.

PEZ® Chopper

Built in 2006 by Orange County Choppers in Newburgh, NY

“American Chopper” was a show featuring the Teutul family; it was one of the best rated cable television shows in 2006 drawing millions of viewers each week. Our chopper was not featured on the show but can be seen in the background in several episodes while it was under construction.

Part of our agreement when building the motorcycle was to make the family; Paul Sr., and his sons Paul Jr, and Mikey into PEZ dispensers. They are the first, living people to have their head on a PEZ dispenser!

Some of the choppers unique features include; policeman and fireman dispensers in the wheels, candy tablet rear view mirrors, PEZ dispenser holders on both sides of the bike, retro candy pack gas tank and a large Darth Vader dispenser as the oil tank.

The chopper is over 10 feet long and weights just over 800 lbs! The chief builder was Rick Petko of OCC and the PEZ themed paint was done by ‘Nub Grafix’.  Along with the classic PEZ girl, various candy tablets and wild graphics, there is a tiny Mickey Mouse dispenser painted on the bike.

The dual line receiver posts used in this application are outfitted with Visiontron's exclusive Mini-Socket mount, which allows the posts to be screwed into a small socket in the floor, reducing the floor space needed to install.  The 2" or 4" deep sockets are approximately 1" wide which reduces the amount of drilling needed in the floor surface.

Shawn Peterson, Project Manager at PEZ Candy Inc. explains the display above and why the new solution was needed

"This display consists of vintage vending machines from the 1960's and corresponding advertising sheets for each. The 2 red machines are from the U.S. and the yellow and small white machine are European. Kids LOVED to turn the knobs and would go right under the previous stanchion and straps we had to touch them, despite several ‘please do not touch’ signs. The new post and panels allows for full display as before but gives us a child proof barrier."

The PEZ Candy Visitor Center located in Orange, Connecticut is more than 4,000 square feet that offers a glimpse into the full world of the PEZ brand.  Self guided tours can experience PEZ manufacturing through viewing windows while video monitors detail the processes of producing both the famous PEZ dispenser as well as PEZ candy.

The Visitor Center houses the most comprehensive assortment of PEZ memorabilia on public display anywhere in the world.

The world's largest operational PEZ dispenser welcomes visitors to the facility.

The interactive time line lets visitors travel back through the decades and discover PEZ Candy's rich history.
