What Is a Bollard? A Brief History & Modern
Use
From the early days of embedding cannons upside-down into
the ground to moor ships, or installing timber posts to manage horse-drawn
traffic, bollards have evolved into a highly effective solution
for traffic management, access control, and security.
Today, a bollard is typically a vertical post,
manufactured from materials such as steel, stainless steel, or timber, and
either concreted into the ground (root-fixed) or surface-mounted using
a base plate. Advanced options include removable and retractable
(telescopic) bollards, providing flexibility in access control without
compromising on durability or strength.
Key Applications of Bollards
Bollards serve a variety of critical functions:
- Vehicle
Access Restriction – while maintaining free pedestrian flow
- Impact
Protection – outside storefronts, ATMs, roller shutters, and loading
bays
- Building
& Machinery Protection – in commercial settings, factories, and
warehouses
- Perimeter
Security – as a cost-effective boundary marker
- Internal
Safety – creating safe walkways and preventing forklift damage in
industrial facilities
Their robust construction, long lifespan,
and minimal maintenance requirements make bollards a smart choice for
both permanent and semi-permanent installations.
Bollard Materials Available
Galvanised Mild Steel Bollards
Strong, cost-effective, and highly versatile, our galvanised
mild steel bollards are fabricated in-house and available in round or
square profiles. They are galvanised to prevent rust, with the option
of powder coating in any RAL colour. Available in standard and custom
sizes, these bollards are ideal for access control, traffic management, and
perimeter protection.
Stainless Steel Bollards
Combining strength with modern aesthetics, our stainless
steel bollards offer a low-maintenance, anti-vandal solution. Available
in Grade 304 or marine-grade 316 (ideal for coastal areas),
these posts do not require galvanising and come with various fixing, top cap,
and banding options. Custom fabrication is available upon request.
Timber Bollards (Hardwood & Softwood)
For a more natural appearance, timber bollards are an excellent choice. Available in Oak, Iroko, Larch, or Tanalised Softwood, these wooden posts offer strength, visual appeal, and long-lasting performance. Fixed or removable versions (with galvanised sockets) are available. All timber is sourced from sustainable forestry schemes.
If you already have your timber bollards or fence posts, we supply the ground sockets separately.
An eco-friendly alternative, our recycled plastic
bollards are made from 100% recycled materials. These posts offer
excellent resistance to weathering, UV, and impact—with zero maintenance
required. A great choice for environmentally conscious projects.
Types of Bollards
For permanent security solutions, fixed bollards offer
unmatched durability and cost-effectiveness. They can be concreted in
(root fix) or bolted down using base plates. A minimum 300mm
depth is recommended for standard posts, with heavy-duty options requiring
up to 600mm for optimal impact resistance.
These are constructed from larger diameter,
thick-walled steel tubes and are designed for maximum impact
protection. Ideal for commercial premises, these bollards can be filled with
concrete on-site and are commonly used to protect shopfronts, shutter doors,
and high-value infrastructure.
Designed for flexibility and convenience, these folding
bollards are surface-mounted and can be locked in the upright position.
When lowered, they allow vehicles to pass freely, making them perfect for private
driveways and commercial car parks.
Retractable (Telescopic) Bollards
Our telescopic bollards are embedded into the
ground and feature a key-operated locking mechanism. The bollard retracts
into a flush-fitting ground socket when not in use. These are ideal for residential
driveways, commercial entrances, and vehicle theft prevention.
These bollards sit in a galvanised steel socket and
can be completely lifted out when not in use. A shallower socket depth
(approx. 300mm) makes them ideal for areas with underground services or
digging restrictions.
Bollard Installation Depth Guidelines
To ensure maximum stability and security:
- Standard
steel bollards (1200mm): Minimum 300mm into concrete
- Heavy-duty
bollards (1500–1800mm): Minimum 500–600mm foundation depth
