Mobile racks

Appointment of mobile racks

Portable fences do not have a stable base and can be installed in any places to designate the territory or borders of a particular zone of control.

Such racks were widely used in the design of municipal points:

At least 50 cm, at least 2m50 cm - the organizer has the right to choose the distance between the bars at his discretion.

Mobile support with a sliding tape

Easy installation is also supported by the possibility of orientation in place: you can operate not only with the height of the uprights, but also the distance between them. At the same time, the weight of one support determines the stability of the whole structure: if the metal is heavy, you can save on the connecting ropes and vice versa. The accompanying installation manual allows you to implement any type of fencing configuration, distinguish zones by color - for example, install red ropes in one, blue in another, and so on.
