Bollards are short, sturdy vertical posts designed for safety, security and traffic control. They are manufactured from various materials, with metal and steel bollards being the most durable and widely used in high-impact or high-security environments. Below is an overview of the different types of bollards and their main applications, followed by an explanation of the manufacturing and production process for metal and steel safety bollards.
Types Of Bollard
1.Fixed Bollards – Permanently installed for long-term security or boundary control.
2. Removable Bollards – Can be detached to allow temporary vehicle access.
3. Retractable (Telescopic) Bollards – Mechanically or manually retractable for flexible access control.
4. Flexible (Bendable) Bollards – Designed to bend upon impact and return to shape, ideal for low-impact zones.
5. Decorative Bollards – Combine functionality with aesthetic appeal, often used in architectural settings.
6. Crash-Rated (High-Security) Bollards – Engineered to withstand vehicle collisions, protecting buildings and pedestrians
7. Lighted Bollards – Equipped with integrated lighting to improve visibility and enhance safety at night.
8. Traffic Guide Bollards – Used to channel traffic flow and mark restricted or hazardous areas.
