How to choose
This is the fast end of the catalogue: equipment put out in the morning and collected in the evening. What the products share is that one person carries them and none of them needs installing.
The choice starts with the place of use: on the carriageway the height comes from the authority specification, while indoor and fleet use takes the low type.
Where a written message is needed, the sign answer is quoted from the traffic signs group.
Complements are assessed together with the cone quotation: a connecting bar turns a row of cones into a continuous guidance line, and a weight ring keeps cones in place on an exposed site.
Both are written as items of the cone order.
The commonest mistake is buying cheap and light. Light-based cones scatter in the first season and a second purchase follows, so the total exceeds what the right base would have cost at the outset.
When asking for a quotation, state the place of use, the height and the quantity. Mixed-height loads are common in cone orders: one container covers both the road and the car park need.
Storage is the hidden cost in this family. Nested cones take little room, and for crews with narrow shelf space that weighs as heavily as price.
Fading is the wear most often missed in this family.
An orange body faded by sun reads as grey from a distance and loses its warning function, yet it looks sound and so it is not replaced.
Orders in this family mix heights. Different cone heights in one shipment are normal; the pallet plan is built around that and freight is calculated once.
