The wall mounted barrier reel box metal housing — BASIC spare part

The wall mounted barrier reel box metal housing is the protective shell that covers the BASIC range wall-mounted strap reel. Sold individually as a spare part, it is designed to restore a wall barrier system whose housing has been knocked, scratched, or deformed — without needing to replace the entire unit. This wall mounted barrier reel box weighs just 335 g, making it easy to handle and install.

It is a simple, cost-effective repair: you keep the existing strap reel and wall receiver already in place, and simply replace the metal casing that protects and holds them to the wall. A practical way to extend the life of your equipment rather than discarding it over a damaged outer shell.

What this part does

The housing is the element that mounts to the wall and encloses the mechanism. It serves two functions: protecting the strap reel from everyday impacts (trolleys, handling, public foot traffic) and providing a clean, stable mounting support. Over time, or after an impact, it is often this outer casing that shows wear first, while the internal mechanism remains perfectly functional.

Replacing only the housing allows you to extend the service life of your installation and keep your wall barrier system looking neat and presentable, with minimal downtime.

What is (and is not) included

This product is intended solely for repair purposes. It includes the metal casing only, with no other mechanism components.

• Replacement metal housing, finished to match the BASIC range — black finish.
• No strap reel or wall receiver is included: you reuse the components from your existing unit.
• Part designed to fit the existing mechanism of the BASIC wall-mounted strap reel.

If your reel has a different fault (strap, return spring, receiver), other spare parts from the range will be required: this housing only addresses the outer shell.

Compatible model

This housing is designed for the BASIC wall-mounted strap reel. It replaces the original casing using the same fixing points, so installation is identical to the original housing.

If your installation includes several wall-mounted units, simply verify that your reel belongs to the BASIC range before ordering: housings are not interchangeable between ranges.

Installation

The operation is straightforward. Remove the old damaged housing, reposition the mechanism inside the new casing, then refix the assembly to the wall using the same anchor points. No specialist tools are required beyond standard screws, and your wall barrier system is restored to its original appearance.

Typical use cases in B2B environments

This replacement metal housing is particularly well-suited for facilities managers and maintenance teams in retail stores, exhibition halls, hotels, airports, and public administration buildings where BASIC wall strap reels are installed for queue management or area delineation. Rather than procuring a full new unit and disrupting operations, a quick housing swap keeps the barrier system compliant and professional-looking — a common requirement in trade show venues, convention centres, and corporate reception areas across the UK, US, and international markets.
