Rental Solution for Crowd Control
Stanchion Rental in High River
High River has an unusual event mix for a town its size: a heritage main street that gets closed for programming several times a year, and a steady film and television trade that has been shooting here for decades. Both need routing equipment, and they need it for very different reasons.

Events we supply in High River
The community half is street-level — parades, markets, seasonal festivals and the Christmas programme downtown. Barriers and belt stanchions do the routing: closing a block, holding a parade line, keeping a crossing open through a crowd.
The production half is quieter and more specific. Film and television shoots need public separation from a working set, and that is barrier work with a clear line and no ambiguity about which side people stand on. It is also work where the equipment has to look neutral rather than decorative.

Delivery to High River
High River is a straight run south of Calgary. For a street closure the useful detail is the block and the crossings; for a production it is the call time and where the unit base sits, because the drop usually has to happen around a shooting schedule rather than into it.
What delivery to High River comes to rests on two things: the address and the size of the order. A single crossing and a full downtown closure are the two ends of the range here. Give us the street or location address with your dates and the delivery is priced in the quote.
Book ahead for peak dates — the summer street programme and the December downtown events fill first. Outside those there is no minimum notice, and production dates tend to arrive at short notice, which is normal — send them anyway.
High River questions
Do you supply barriers for film and television shoots?
Yes. Galvanized steel sections, 3.6 ft × 6.9 ft, interlocking into a continuous run — which is what a public separation line needs. Tell us the length, whether it is holding a sidewalk or a road, and what your access window is, and we will schedule around the shooting day rather than through it.
Can you work around a street closure permit?
Yes, and it is worth sending us the permit conditions with the enquiry. They usually dictate where a run can and cannot sit, where crossings must stay open and when equipment can arrive — all of which we would rather plan around than adjust on the day.
Topper or sign stand — which one do we want?
A topper mounts on top of a belt stanchion post; a sign stand is a free-standing floor post with a frame on it and stands on its own. Both take 8.5 × 11 in inserts, which you supply and print yourself — any office printer sheet drops straight in.
