Selecting the Right Material and Finish for your Traffic Bollard

When choosing bolt-down bollards, it's important to consider the material and finish based on your specific needs. Steel bollards offer strength and durability, while stainless steel bollards provide additional corrosion resistance. Aluminium bollards are lightweight and resistant to rust, making them ideal for coastal environments. Finishes such as powder coating or galvanising can further enhance durability and visual appeal.

 

Height and Diameter Considerations

The height and diameter of bolt-down bollards are crucial factors in ensuring proper protection and visibility. Taller bollards provide increased visibility for drivers, while wider diameters offer greater impact resistance. Consider your site's specific requirements and potential hazards when selecting the appropriate bollard dimensions.

 

Regulatory Compliance

When installing bolt-down bollards, it's essential to ensure compliance with local regulations and safety standards. Consult with relevant authorities and guidelines to determine the appropriate placement, spacing, and dimensions for your specific application.


Bolt-down bollards are a versatile and effective safety solution for various commercial, industrial, and public spaces. Their ease of installation, customisation options, and adaptability make them a popular choice for protecting pedestrians, buildings, and other assets.
