Agricultural shows and similar outdoor events are a popular feature of the country calendar attracting
many thousands of visitors each year.
Not surprisingly, businesses and other organisations use these occasions to promote their products and services with trade stands and exhibits. The Nidderdale system has been designed with
trade stands and exhibits at such events specifically in mind.
DESCRIPTION
Wooden posts, which are supplied in a natural finish, hold the rope approximately
75cm (2' 6") above the ground to form the perimeter of a stand or display.
Decorative
end knots allow an entrance to be formed between two posts.
The posts are securely held in position by square steel cups fitted with a steel spike that is driven into the ground.
ROPES
The system is designed for use with 24mm diameter rope which can be supplied in
staple fibre polypropylene (resembles wool) in a choice of 6 colours: Bright
Red, Royal Blue, Slate Blue, Green, Gold and Black or in natural looking
Polyhemp..
Ropes can be supplied with a decorative rose knot, which acts as a stopper, usually at a gate post. The free end is then threaded through the posts and any surplus neatly coiled.
It is important to note that, in common with many other materials, these
colours will fade over time in bright sunlight.
POSTS AND CUPS
The posts are made from substantial 70mm x 70mm (3" x 3") pine that has been
tanalised to last, leaving the wood
a light brown colour that is naturally attractive in a rural setting.
The modular nature makes it a simple matter to add or subtract posts to allow adjustment for different
sized 'pitches'.
It should be noted, however, that the posts come pre-drilled for 'straight runs'
or 'corners' and these are not interchangeable.
Because the posts are held in a separate steel cup, they are protected from the inevitable damage which occurs when driving wooden posts into hard ground. A specially designed cup lifter is available to assist extraction when the event/show has finished.
Product Notes:
Please remember when ordering to add 5% to any given length if a drape is
required between fixtures.
If ropes are to be stored please ensure that they are perfectly dry before
being put away.
Colours may vary from those shown in the photographs and over time will fade in bright sunlight..
