Café Screens & Barriers for Hospitality


Shades of Comfort
Experience the joys of outdoor living, all year round

Café Screens are an excellent way to advertise your company and mark out your trading area to stand out from surrounding businesses. It works well for cafes, pubs, restaurants, hotels and even for queuing systems in public place such as theme parks. Café Screens are also known as café barriers , pavement screens and banners and they aid social distancing, providing vital re-assurance to your customers.

Why café barriers are a great option

They are a highly popular choice with the hospitality sector because of their ease of use where there is often a requirement to put them out at the start of a days trading and then put them away at the end of the day. They also enable different shape areas to be created when required for example with special events.

Advantages of Screening

  • SAFETY

    Councils are increasing the number of cafes and hospitality trades that are being asked to put banner screenings up as a safety measure. A physical boundary can prevent customers from tripping over your furniture, and the lower bar acts as a tapping rail for the visually impaired. The Disability Discrimination Act introduced this new feature, along with the gradual incline of a weighted base, to ensure that wheelchair users can safely roll over the posts. Our Café Screens comply with building regulations part M and part K.

  • ENCLOSING YOUR FURNITURE

    Along with the safety aspect, enclosing your furniture with screen banners can help to ward off thieves. Your customers will also find it more difficult to move your furniture to where it is not permitted, thus reducing the chance of violating your set boundary which could result in a warning or a fine.

  • A MARKETING ASSET

    Our screen banners can be branded on one or both sides to create a highly visible advert for your business. As a low cost and low maintenance advertising solution, your barriers will stand out on the high street and create a stylish, organised atmosphere for customers.

Tilt and Pull Café Barrier System

Suitable for both internal and external use, the Tilt and Pull Café Barrier System is the perfect balance between easy mobility and a sturdy base. Corrosion resistant and SGS certified, our durable and innovative bases create an attractive clean finish with a low maintenance cost.

Each screen comes at a standard of 1.2m centre to centre high quality cotton canvas (used to make awnings!) but we can produce any size required, and selected sizes available in PVC and PVC Mesh. Customise each screen with your logo/brand/text to increase your kerb appeal and stand out from your competitors.

PVC Mesh Banners

PVC Mesh Banners are available in sizes 1.20m, 1.50m and 1.80m, 2.0m. All our screens come with both top and bottom crossbars to clip onto the posts, although if you already have a screen system and would like to replace your screens only, this is possible. This makes re-images or re-branding of your pub, restaurant, hotel or theme park cheap & easy when it comes to banner screens.
All sizes are that of the crossbars and are not the width of the actual material. All banners are 860mm depth.

Cotton Canvas Banners

Cotton canvas banner screens are available in sizes 1.20m, 1.50m and 1.80m & 2.0m. All our screens come with both top and bottom crossbars to clip onto the posts, although if you already have a screen system and would like to replace your screens only, this is possible. This makes re-images or re-branding of your store cheap and easy when it comes to banner screens.
The sizes are those of the crossbars and are not the width of the actual material. All banners are 860mm depth. The cotton canvas banner screens are a very popular choice as they give a bold, long lasting colour, with the eye catching impact that pubs, cafes and restaurants in particular, require.

Tilt and Pull Café Barrier System

The Shades of Comfort Tilt and Pull Café Barrier Systems are Corrosion resistant and SGS certified (giving you the comfort of knowing that our products meet national standards). Our durable and innovative bases create an attractive clean finish with a low maintenance cost.

In addition to a beautiful brushed stainless steel finish, these 1000mm high, 15kg weighted posts have integrated rollers and rubber floor protectors. These are hugely beneficial for reducing potential damage to the equipment, reducing manual handling activities and saving your company valuable time.

Each 50mm diameter post has a 350mm dome shaped floor plate and a 65mm flat top crown decoration. Metal cross bars with beam clips attach onto an 8 way connectivity disc at both the top and bottom. The lower ring is floating to allow the banner to act as a shock absorber in windy conditions, thus reducing the risk of the posts from becoming dangerous and moving. The height of the lower ring is calculated to act as a tapping rail for the visually impaired, allowing the system to be recognised as DDA aware, particularly important for businesses in high footfall areas.

Each barrier comes at a standard of 1.2m centre to centre high quality cotton canvas (used to make awnings!) but we can produce any size required, and selected sizes available in PVC and PVC Mesh. Customise each screen with your logo/brand/text to increase your kerb appeal and stand out from your competitors.
