The Column Sentry FIT is an innovative modular column protection system designed to prevent impact damage to columns and vehicles in warehouses, factories, and parking facilities. Its unique four-piece interlocking design allows the protector to form a perfect fit around the column. Installation is fast and easy: the parts are secured without tools using strong, reusable hook-and-loop straps.

The Column Sentry FIT is made from expanded polypropylene (EPP) – a strong, lightweight, and resilient material with high compressive strength. Tested and proven to be stronger than the original Column Sentry, it withstands repeated impacts without permanent deformation. The FIT also features Sentry®’s patented air-chamber technology, which deflects impact energy away from the column, minimizing collision force and reducing damage to both the structure and vehicles.

Adjustable, Expandable, and Combinable

The smart FIT design consists of four identical panels that slide together like puzzle pieces, creating a secure and adjustable fit for various column sizes without the need for custom models.

The optional Extension Kit adds even more flexibility. The kit includes two expansion panels and matching straps. Each expansion section increases the protector’s size by approximately 25 cm per side, allowing it to adapt to larger or irregularly shaped columns. The Extension Kit is finished in black, creating a high-visibility contrast when combined with the FIT’s bright yellow panels – ideal for busy industrial environments. It also maintains full corner protection and is tested for use on solid columns.

The FIT Small and FIT Medium can also be combined to create the FIT Combo, adjustable between 100–200 mm and 200–300 mm. The Combo is ideal for rectangular columns with varying side lengths or locations with multiple column sizes. When paired with the Extension Kit, the Combo can also be reconfigured into a fully square protector while maintaining high visibility and robust protection.

Thanks to its modular design, the Column Sentry FIT is a more cost-effective solution than traditional column protectors. One system covers multiple column sizes, reducing the need for different models and simplifying inventory management.

Installation

• Position the four FIT panels around the column.
• Slide two panels together to create two halves.
• Slide the halves toward each other until the protector fits snugly around the column.
• Secure with the included hook-and-loop straps.
• When using the Extension Kit, add the two extra panels between the existing ones and resecure the straps.
