In event management, stanchions serve as sturdy bars or posts that incorporate retractable belts, velvet ropes, or plastic chains, often combined with wall-mounted barrier devices, barricades, and printed signs to effectively control crowds and engineer people flow in addition to ensuring construction site safety. In architecture, a stanchion is the robust iron bar found in windows that passes through the eyes of saddle bars or horizontal irons to stabilize the leadlight. The French term for this component is traverses, while the stanchions are referred to as montants, and the entire arrangement is known as armature. These stanchions frequently terminate with ornate heads forged from iron. Stanchions also function as metal supporting members of lighting fixtures mounted from a lower elevation, such as the inclined metal member used to attach a streetlight to a telephone or power pole, or the dedicated vertical support of a self-supporting or bottom-fed streetlight. In this context, the stanchion pole may double as the raceway for the electrical feed to the lighting. In industrial settings, walkway lighting is often mounted with a stanchion that is securely fastened to a handrail. Stanchion lights are typically spaced 50 feet apart along walkways, such as conveyor platforms. Stanchions (balusters or bollards) also serve as upright posts inserted into the ground or floor to protect the corner of a wall.
