stanchions
Upright metal posts
Stanchions are upright posts or supports, typically made of metal, used to hold something in place or create barriers.
In crowd control, stanchions connected by ropes or retractable belts guide people into orderly lines at banks, airports, and theaters.
On ships and docks, stanchions support railings or secure cargo.
In farming, stanchions are frames that restrain cattle by the neck during milking or feeding.
The velvet ropes hung between brass stanchions at the museum entrance.
