How to Choose Sidewalk Barriers and not to Mess up Your Restaurant Storefront

Sidewalk barriers are great for business owners. Cafes, restaurants, stores, and hotels benefit from having an extended space to work with. Moreover, they are affordable.

The variety of models is impressive. They include patio dividers, as well as sidewalk and planter barriers. They come in different sizes. You can order one with custom height and width. Exquisite designs create a unique atmosphere. Your architecture reaches a new level of style and chic.

Modular partitions are ideal for a sidewalk cafe. They create extra room for more clients. Furthermore, you welcome new types of clients. Some enjoy urban life, and some are searching for new experiences. An outdoor cafe matches both groups’ needs. Visitors enjoy a delicious meal and feel like they are a part of the city. The partitions also reduce the noise from the crowd.

These are but a few of the competitive advantages that are waiting for you. Yet, you must choose correctly to reap the benefits. In this article, you’ll find information about the main types of sidewalk barriers and guidance on their pros/cons.

Types of Sidewalk Barriers

Outdoor partitions create a comfortable atmosphere while sitting in a sidewalk restaurant. Clients eat delicious dishes and enjoy the fresh air.

Although outdoor partitions are a common choice for a summer terrace, it’s hard to differentiate them from another cafe – but we offer plenty of sidewalk barrier models to solve that:

  • Patio fencing. This suits anything from a cafe/restaurant to camps, vineyards, hotels, and stores. This is a multipurpose partition. The size varies. It can be medium or high (about 7 feet). You can create a separate leisure space, build a terrace, or hide something. The durable frame, which is made of metal, guarantees good weather resistance and years of service. You can also use them as a plexiglass protective barrier.
  • Outdoor patio fencing. This type is like the previous model. However, it can only be used outside. It is robust and made of metal. It’ll endure the harsh and unpredictable weather of NYC. Outdoor patio fencing for restaurants consists of large panels that create a cozy atmosphere. Clients will enjoy leisure time there.
  • Restaurant patio enclosures. This model features a style reminiscent of a summer terrace. But outside restaurant partitions aren’t limited to cafes. Stores and hotels can use them too. The barriers have a middling size (they are usually about the same height as a table). They don’t separate clients from the noise of the street but still mark the territory of the store. Even though it doesn’t give as much privacy as a high whole-panel outdoor partition, the passers-by won’t disturb the visitors. At the same time, they feel like they are part of the crowd.
  • Planter barriers. The most exquisite solution. Such decorative outdoor fencing separates a sidewalk restaurant from the street. The movable partitions can also serve as a flowerpot. This adds extra detail to the outer design. Moreover, the unending stream of aesthetes will result in a higher income.

Any model can be unique. Designers work with a variety of materials such as wood, glass, plexiglass, fabric, and metal. The same applies to colors. Moreover, Fortuna Visual Group creates branded space partitions for companies in NYC. We print your logo on any surface. This will help with advertising.

How to Choose the Suitable Model of Outdoor Partitions

Sidewalk barriers help maximize comfort in a sidewalk cafe. They account for privacy, reduce noise and chaos, and serve a decorative purpose. An area with nice partitions attracts more clients. Who wants a spare lonely table in the middle of an NYC street?

To ensure a lucrative investment, barriers must meet your demands. After all, there is no panacea in business and design. The initial step is to define what you need. Work out the following:

Purpose

The most important question: why? Different models help with different goals. For instance, space partitions serve help separate one area from another but don’t provide an enclosed space.

Patio dividers fulfill the same purpose but for a restaurant. A restaurant patio barrier usually has a lower height; therefore, it is more suitable for a terrace. Restaurant patio fencing allows creating a large closed outside dining zone. They usually resemble a high fence.

The barrier heights must match your purpose. Medium or small partitions suit zoning, while you’ll need high ones for privacy.

Design

Some models like space partitions are plain. They divide the zones with a whole-piece panel. If you are looking for a fancier alternative, choose patio fencing. The variety of patterns is huge. The most widespread is dark-brown wood for nature-themed designs.

Modern looks usually include glass or metal dividers. The patterns can be different, for example, a monochrome design, or a sophisticated and complex pattern.

Marketing

Fortuna Visual Group can print any picture on all surfaces. A logo will improve the brand’s image and recognition. A photo of the bestselling dish may increase your revenue. A photo of a set of delicious meals will stimulate a customer’s appetite, contributing to a larger order.

You are not limited to these questions. The most important thing is to define your needs and find a suitable solution.

Outdoor Partitions Are an Essential Element of a Reputable Facility

Sidewalk barriers transform the business. They are a customer-oriented approach to improving your profits. Clients can enjoy drinks or meals outdoors without feeling that they are in the busy streets. Apart from that, outdoor partitions, dividers, and barriers allow you to:

outdoor partition
  • Have extra seats. Install a sidewalk cafe in several hours and earn more for months. This can be temporary or permanent. Either way, the cafe will have more tables available in summer. High restaurant patio fencing with a roof provides a protected winter terrace. Place heaters and serve customers in autumn or even during a warm winter.
  • Divide the space. Order a removable restaurant patio fence and adjust it. The construction is robust but simultaneously lightweight. You won’t require professional help. Even the waiters alone will manage.
  • Keep the chaos of the street away from the cafe. Depending on the model, you can have complete privacy. High, whole-panel space partitions ensure that no pedestrians will disturb clients.
  • Promote a brand. Add a logo, and customers won’t forget the branded patio fencing. It is both chic and classy. Create a reputation using magnificent outer design. Small details make a difference.

Although the idea of a sidewalk cafe isn’t modern, it brings a decent profit. Otherwise, why would it still be on the market?
