Two Combinations, Bought As One

Event Package Rentals in Edmonton

Some entrances need one product. Most need two working together — posts and a runner, or posts and the signage that explains them. A package is that pairing ordered as a single item instead of assembled by you and hoped to match.

Gold rope stanchions with red velvet ropes along an indoor red carpet runner

Red carpet package

Arrivals, premieres, galas and award evenings — anywhere a camera is aimed at the door.

A carpet runner and rope stanchions, ordered as one thing:

  • A runner cut to the full length of the walk
  • Rope stanchion posts down both sides of it
  • Velvet rope hung between the posts

This pairing is what makes an entrance photograph well. The runner provides the surface and the edge; the rope line keeps everyone off it so the frame stays clean. Each does half the job alone — a runner with nothing flanking it fills up with people, and a rope line on bare floor is simply a queue.

This one is quoted against the walk itself: its length, its width, and how long it stays down. Describe the space and we will assemble the combination and quote it as a single item.

Belt stanchions carrying blank sign toppers during an event setup

Crowd control package

Festival gates, registration desks, concert doors — anywhere under arrival pressure.

Belt stanchions and the signage that names them:

  • Belt stanchion posts carrying retractable belts
  • Sign toppers mounted on the posts

Posts and belts on their own are not a queue, they are a shape. The stanchions draw the lane and the toppers name it — "line starts here", registration, which way to check in — so guests read where to go rather than being told. Unlabelled posts mean somebody on your team repeats one sentence all evening.

This one is quoted against the queue: how many entry points you are running, what each has to be labelled as, and how long the doors stay open. Send the shape of it and the combination is quoted together.

Which package fits your event

It depends what the entrance is being asked to do. If it is a moment — guests arriving, being photographed, walking in rather than waiting — the red carpet package is the one. A premiere, a gala, an awards evening, a launch with a photo wall: the entrance is part of the event rather than merely the way in, and it wants a runner with a rope line down both sides.

If it is a volume problem — festival gates, registration desks, doors opening onto a crowd that has already gathered — the crowd control package is the one. Posts draw the lane, toppers explain it, and together they keep a busy door moving without anyone having to stand there directing traffic.

A good number of events are both. A conference with an awards dinner runs a registration queue through the day and an arrival in the evening — two packages, one delivery.

Building something else

The two packages ship exactly as configured. If neither of them fits what you are building, order the items individually and the whole lot is still quoted as one order:

FAQ

What does each package contain?

The red carpet package is a carpet runner with rope stanchions — the runner for the walk, posts and velvet rope along both sides of it. The crowd control package is belt stanchions carrying retractable belts, with sign toppers mounted on the posts for your queue signage.

Is there any advantage to ordering a package?

Only that the pairing is what does the job, and ordering it as one item takes the guesswork out of what goes with what. If the spec is already settled in your head, ordering item by item is completely normal and is quoted the same way — a package is a shortcut, not a requirement.

Can the contents be changed?

The packages go out as configured. For a different combination, order the items individually from the product pages and it is still quoted as a single order with one delivery and one contact. Belt stanchions → · Rope stanchions → · Carpet runners →

How is the quantity worked out?

From your entrance rather than from a table. Send the event address, your dates and a sketch or a photo of the space if you have one, and the quantities are worked out against what is actually there and come back itemised on the quote.

Which colours can a package be built in?

Runners come in five: red, white, black, green and navy. The rope colour follows the post you pick — see carpet runners → and rope stanchions →. Describe the look you are after on the enquiry and we will confirm the pairing before anything is booked.

Does a package arrive assembled?

We deliver across Edmonton and Alberta and collect afterwards. Having the crew set it out and strike it is optional — send the event address and your access window and it is standing before doors, or we drop it off and your own team places it.

When should a package be ordered?

A package draws on two product lines at once, so it is worth settling early on any date when either of them is busy — gala season and the summer run in particular. Otherwise there is no minimum notice: send the dates and we will come back on what both lines can cover.
