Key features

The Snake Runner is a hinged section with a narrow door for cable runs. Crew feed multi-cores and power cables through it while the line goes up, once it stands and while it comes down.

The Snake Gate has the wider door, so crew can walk through with flight cases as well as feed cables. It creates a controlled entry point for crew within the line. At the door, two floor plates and side ramps form the base.

Both openings belong to the Mojo stage barrier range and share the material specification of the Straight Section, the standard barrier of the line, and have a similar construction.

The Snake Gate is ideal for camera platforms, mix positions and crew gateways. The Snake Runner is suitable where cables cross the barrier line and a narrow door is enough.
In numbers
The Snake Gate fills one place in the line, and a tested specimen took more than the required load.

FAQ
Two contacts, depending on the question:
A crowd barrier gate is a section of a crowd control barrier line with a hinged door, so crew and cables can cross at a set point while the line stays closed to the people in the crowd. In a Mojo Barrier line there are two of them: the narrow Snake Runner and the wider Snake Gate, each designed for its own use.
| Need | Opening |
|---|---|
| cable runs only | Snake Runner |
| crew walking through | Snake Gate |
| rear step for security staff at the opening | Snake Runner (fixed part) |
| larger cable runs | Cable Gate |
Multi-cores and power cables up to 35 mm thick fit through the doors of both openings, so cables between stage, mix position and camera platforms can cross the line. For larger cable runs, the Cable Gate has a 110 mm opening below its door.
Yes. Both openings are hired out through the rental companies of the MOJO Holding Group, for concerts, festivals and other events, indoor and outdoor. Speak to the rental company in your country about the units and door widths in stock. For product questions, contact our team.
