ProMat 2025: Column Sentry FIT System Protects Any Column Size
March 20, 2025
Sentry Protection Products' Column FIT System uses three separate pieces that are interchangeable and lock together to protect column bases of any size.
The Column Sentry FIT System is comprised of three separate, interchangeable parts that work together to expand protection for larger and odd-sized columns. The system is a combination of two different sizes of column protector corners and extension pieces that cover just about every size column no matter how large.
Each of the FIT pieces slides along a patented interactive spine, connecting with its neighboring pieces, offering adjustability and spreading impact absorption, allowing equal protection around the column.
The FIT small and medium expand or contract to fit different square column sizes between 4 and 12 in (10 and 30 cm). The extension pieces extend the reach of any side of the column. Built with the same spine as the corner pieces, these energy-absorbent molded pieces can be added to each other to cover larger column sizes.
The new FIT Medium interacts with the original FIT Small to cover rectangular-sized columns beginning at 4 x 8 in (10 x 20 cm).
Sentry Protection is also working on a tool that will show exactly the number of pieces and sizes needed to install the column protector. Customers will be able to plug in the column size and shape, and the configurator will build the column protector.
