Australian-Made Café Barrier Boards – Built to Last, Designed to Stand Out

by kyle Sevenoaks

Outdoor dining areas are more than just extra seating — they’re a direct extension of your brand. A well-designed café barrier not only defines your space, it attracts foot traffic, blocks wind, and puts your business name front and centre.

At Stick-Dat, we now design and fabricate Australian-made café barrier boards, built from steel pipe frames with custom printed panels to suit cafés, restaurants, bars, breweries, and pop-up food businesses.

Why Café Barrier Boards Matter

A proper café barrier does more than separate tables from the footpath:

  • Clearly defines your trading area

  • Improves customer comfort and privacy

  • Reduces wind exposure

  • Acts as permanent street-level advertising

  • Gives your venue a more professional, established look

Cheap imported systems often flex, rust, or fail in wind. Our barriers are designed to be strong, stable, and made for Australian conditions.

Built Locally from Steel Pipe Frames

Every café barrier board is fabricated locally using steel pipe frames, with smooth pipe-bent corners for a clean, professional finish — not welded elbows or bolt-together kits.

Each unit features:

  • Pipe-bent steel perimeter frame

  • Flat steel feet for stability (long, slim footprint)

  • Optional height adjustment

  • Powder-coated finish available

  • Designed for repeated setup and pack-down

This makes them ideal for both permanent and semi-permanent outdoor dining setups.

Custom Sizes to Suit Your Space

We offer practical, industry-standard sizing options that work for most café layouts:

Heights

  • 600mm – standard café barrier height

  • 900mm – increased privacy and wind protection

Widths

  • 1800mm

  • 2400mm

  • 3000mm

Multiple panels can be combined to create a continuous barrier run.

Panel & Printing Options

We don’t use fabric banners. Instead, we supply rigid panels that look better, last longer, and hold print quality.

Panel options:

  • 5mm Corflute – lightweight and removable

  • Metal / Aluminium – premium, rigid finish

Printing options:

  • No print (blank panel)

  • Single-sided full-colour print

  • Double-sided full-colour print

Your branding, menu items, or graphics are printed in full colour and mounted cleanly inside the frame.

Designed for Real-World Use

Our café barrier boards are designed with actual footpaths, weather, and compliance in mind:

  • Slim feet reduce trip hazards

  • Strong steel construction handles wind better than lightweight systems

  • Easy to reposition or remove if required

  • Built to survive daily use, not just look good in photos
