What we do.
We aim to give our viewers the most up to date and complete information regarding the smoking laws for the state of New Jersey. We also showcase products and services that restaurant and hotel owners are utilizing to regain smoking sections that were lost due to smoking legislation
The Letter.
Throughout the globe, smokers and their arch enemies,
non-smokers have combated over who has the rights to air space.
Smoking bans, due to the rise of ant-smokers have flourished
through the world. Countries, states and cities have devised
their own modeling approach on how to circumvent the regulations
on who can smoke and when with the greatest smoking bans being
put on restaurants, bars, café’s the like. Smoking bans have
changed the way food service establishments and alcohol serving
businesses are able to satisfy their bottom line, daily gross of
sales. Even though, as many would confess, eating a fine meal
and having a puff of smoke linger through the air definitely
changes the way food tastes. Clothes are every much affected as
well from the second hand smoke that is sent out by smokers.
Second hand smoke has been defined as one of the greatest sins
in a smoker’s world. Affecting others ability to have a clean
smoke free air space probably is the number one reason that so
many people have drawn so close to supporting the smoking bans
going on everywhere. While many smoking ban laws are curving the
ability of hospitality businesses income potential, many
restaurants, bars, cafes’ the like have used their outdoor
patios as their accepted smoking space. In most cases, this is
legal and without penalty. Each governing body has their own
rules and regulations which you, as the restaurateur would need
to verify.
Roll-A-Cover, Intl, which doesn’t advocate smoking by no means,
does support businesses rights to options. While many businesses
are expanding their outdoor areas into enjoyable open air space,
many of them are forced to have expensive canvas or awnings
installed as a roof top covering from the unwanted elements.
This has been the only alternative that outdoors patio’s or
patio enclosure spaces have had available. But, in today’s
market, a industry leader has developed the original retractable
sunroom product. While awnings and tents are very usable, they
offer a solid and permanent overhead covering, which by most
smoking ban laws, would be fineable as a smoking room. No
overhead covering while someone is smoking is the general rule
of thumb. These tents and awning style enclosures with flimsy
plastic walls are as illegal in most anti-smoking establishments
as the inside of these establishments’ main areas. Roll-A-Cover
has developed a product that not only provides structural
strength during high winds and heavy loads of snow but when the
weather is fine with a simple roll of the enclosure sections,
the retractable sunroom system becomes a outdoors space. With
the roof rolling with the walls as a telescopic enclosure
product, our enclosures warrant, in most cases the ability of
smokers to enjoy their habits in an area that is often
acceptable to all, the great outdoors. Many patio enclosure type
products and sunrooms that are fixed glass enclosures are no
different than being inside of a conventionally built
structure,. On top of that, sunrooms, whether known as a four
seasons concept versus a 3 seasons product is also classified as
a hot box where air-conditioning costs are often the root to a
loss of profits or a drop of the bottom line in businesses. With
our trackless retractable telescopic enclosures, your ability to
be outdoors and have a comfort level equal to the outdoor air
space is second to non in the sunroom industry. Smoking bans
all over the world have changed businesses income levels and fan
fair, but with retractable sunroom by Roll-A-Cover, your options
for added successes and an increase in clientele may be the
remedy to a pain that has altered your growth.
As we all attempt to grow with the times, we often are hit with
a curve ball that makes us re-evaluate our business profiles.
Outdoor patios have become an income generating machine for many
hospitality businesses alike, so maybe its time that you
consider changing the way you’re restaurant or bar business is
designed and consider being the “new guy on the block”. Its
always time to change and Roll-A-Cover will be there with you
growing with a change of design which will give you and your
guests, “a breath of fresh air”.
