These 2000mm wide Espresso café barrier cross arms are the largest option within the Espresso Café Barrier System from Printdesigns, designed for creating wide-span barrier sections with fewer posts. They are ideal for cafés, restaurants, bars and hospitality venues looking to define larger outdoor seating areas in a simple and cost-effective way.
The extended 2000mm width allows you to maximise coverage while maintaining a clean, open appearance, making it particularly suitable for larger frontage areas or layouts where minimising the number of uprights is preferred.
Each pair of cross arms provides the horizontal support required to hold a single printed café barrier graphic when used with Espresso posts and bases.
Manufactured from durable steel with a hard-wearing black powder-coated finish, these cross arms are built for reliable everyday use. The top rail supports the graphic via a sewn pocket, while spring clips secure the lower edge of the banner to the posts, helping to keep the graphic correctly tensioned and in position. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Cross arms are supplied in pairs and are available in three standard widths: 1200mm, 1500mm and 2000mm, allowing you to configure barrier layouts to suit your available space.
Compatibility Information
Important: These cross arms are designed exclusively for use with Espresso café barrier posts supplied by Printdesigns.
They are compatible with:
- Espresso café barrier posts and bases originally supplied by Printdesigns
- Espresso café barrier graphics designed specifically for this system
They are not compatible with:
- Café barrier systems or components from other manufacturers
- Posts not supplied by Printdesigns
- Other café barrier ranges including Medio or Primo
Due to differences in fittings, connection methods and component sizing, these cross arms are not intended for use with third-party café barrier systems.
System Configuration
The Espresso café barrier system is modular, allowing you to create layouts that suit your available space.
To assemble a single 2000mm wide barrier panel, you will typically require:
- 2 x Espresso posts and bases
- 1 x pair of Espresso 2000mm cross arms (this product)
- 1 x printed graphic panel
For longer runs, each additional panel generally requires one extra post, one pair of cross arms and one additional graphic.
Wall mounting brackets may also be used where a barrier run needs to be fixed to a wall rather than supported by a freestanding post.
