I made this Geometry Nodes tools to increase the speed while placing this crowd control tape for my project. I share it with you and I hope it will be useful to define retractable barriers in your projects.

FULLY PROCEDURAL
You can design your retractable barriers as you want, this is fully procedural system to help your production time. Materials and texture are also fully procedural.

EASY TO USE
You can simply grab or extrude points in edit mode to achieve your shapes.

CUSTOMIZE COLORS AND MATERIALS
You can choose belt colours and two materials for columns. If you made all in edit mode you can have one style for the entire project. If you duplicate the object you can define different style for any object.

ISSUES
If you need to rotate the barriers you must do in object mode to preserve the cross belt between every columns. When you duplicate the points be sure to bind 90 degrees angle in each direction.

Thank you if you support me in the develop of other geometry nodes tool.
