Product Overview: Tensabarrier Advance Chrome Post

The Cobolt BQT188 is the professional choice for sectors requiring the safest and most reliable queuing solutions. Supplied with Free UK Mainland Delivery, this unit combines a sleek 2.3m retractable belt with a market-leading safety braking system, offering a superior solution for guiding footfall in busy, prestigious locations.

Advanced Safety Technology

  • SlowRetract™ Braking System: Unlike cheaper alternatives, the Tensabarrier mechanism slows the belt as it retracts. This anti-whiplash feature prevents the metal end from snapping back dangerously, protecting customers and staff from impact injuries.
  • Anti-Topple Design: The post features a calculated 35° displacement angle. If pushed or bumped by luggage, it will tilt but return to an upright position rather than falling over, preventing domino-effect accidents in crowded queues.
  • Low-Profile Base: The weighted cast iron base has one of the lowest leading edges on the market. This thoughtful design allows pushchairs, suitcases, and wheelchairs to roll over the edge without obstruction, enhancing accessibility.

Premium Build & Flexibility

  • Polished Chrome Finish: The mild steel post is finished in high-shine polished chrome, offering a sophisticated aesthetic that complements modern interiors, reception areas, and retail floors.
  • Universal Connectivity: The post head features a 4-way connection point, allowing you to link belts from three other directions. It is compatible with most standard barrier systems, making it easy to integrate into your existing setup.
  • Tamper-Proof Lock: The belt end features a locking clip that prevents accidental release by children or queue jumpers, ensuring your cordon remains secure at all times.

The Cobolt Commitment

  • Free UK Mainland Delivery: We manage all logistics to provide a transparent, all-inclusive price for your facility budget.
  • UK Based Support: Technical assistance from our team who understand the operational requirements of the UK events and retail sectors.
  • Heritage Reliability: Drawing on nearly 50 years of expertise to provide commercial-grade display solutions you can trust.

The Specification Choice for Crowd Safety

The Tensabarrier Advance Post is primarily specified for environments where safety and brand image are paramount. It is the standard for International Airports and Ferry Terminals, where thousands of passengers pass through daily without incident.

In Luxury Retail and Banking, it serves as a polite but firm guide. The high-quality chrome finish reflects a premium service environment, whilst efficiently managing customer flow during peak hours.

  • 2.3m Black Webbing – Standard reach.
  • SlowRetract™ Brake – Anti-whiplash safety.
  • Low Profile Base – Wheelchair accessible.
  • Polished Chrome Finish – Premium look.
  • Anti-Tamper Tape End – Secure locking.

Cobolt Service & Trust: Professional Excellence

  • Free Delivery (UK Mainland): Our all-inclusive pricing model provides budget certainty for facilities managers and event planners.
  • Institutional Support: Dedicated assistance for large-scale queuing layouts, ensuring efficient passenger flow.
  • Manufacturer Direct: We maintain deep stock levels of this industry-leading barrier for immediate UK dispatch.

Built for Safety. Backed for Years.

  • This barrier is engineered to exceed safety standards. The Centrifugal Braking System is the safest on the market, ensuring the belt retracts at a controlled walking pace rather than snapping back instantly.
  • The Weighted Cast Iron Base (9kg) provides a low centre of gravity, making the post extremely difficult to knock over, even in crowded conditions.
  • The Anti-Tamper Tape End requires a specific push-release action, preventing children or impatient customers from unclipping the barrier and disrupting the queue.
  • The Bevelled Base Edge reduces the risk of tripping, a critical consideration for public liability in retail and transport hubs.
  • We offer a comprehensive 2-year manufacturer's warranty covering the spring mechanism and structural integrity.

Expert Advice: The Best Retractable Barrier

Q: Why is the braking system important?

A: The SlowRetract™ system prevents the belt from snapping back at high speed if released. This significantly reduces the risk of impact injury to children or customers standing nearby, making it the safest choice for public areas.

Q: Can I connect this to other barriers?

A: Yes. The post features a universal 4-way connection splice. It is compatible with most other major brands of retractable barriers, allowing you to extend your existing system.

Q: Is the base suitable for wheelchairs?

A: Yes. The cast iron base has a specially designed low profile with beveled edges. This allows wheelchair wheels and pushchairs to roll over the base edge easily without becoming stuck.

Q: How stable is the post?

A: Very stable. It weighs approx 10kg and has a low centre of gravity. It is designed with a 35° topple angle, meaning it will self-right if tilted slightly and is hard to knock over completely.

Q: Is it suitable for outdoor use?

A: This specific model has a polished chrome finish on mild steel, which is best suited for indoor use. For permanent outdoor use, we recommend our weather-resistant plastic or stainless steel ranges to prevent corrosion.

Q: Is assembly required?

A: Minimal assembly is required. The post usually ships with the base separate to prevent damage. You simply bolt the post to the base using the included fixings (usually a single large bolt/tool provided).

Q: Is delivery included?

A: Yes, Free UK Mainland Delivery is included. We ensure your premium barrier posts are delivered safely to your venue.
