Our padlock controlled, removable bollards offer a simple and effective approach to controlling vehicle access. The bollards feature two components:

• a sleeve which is concreted in-ground and
• the stem which slots into the sleeve, and is secured to the sleeve by padlock

Two sizes:The bollards are available in two different sizes. The 90mm diameter bollard is ideal for most light vehicle applications, whilst the heavier duty 140mm diameter bollard is more suited to heavy vehicle applications (such as loading docks or freight yards).

This style of removable bollard is recommended for environments with any type of heavy or frequent traffic.  Drawing from experience, frequent traffic movements, especially from semi-trailers, over the low traffic 'flip-top' style sleeve, will eventually break the lid away from the sleeve, rendering the bollard useless. To cater for this, we have designed a sleeve that has no critical moving components that are exposed to the forces exerted by vehicle tyres.The sleeve features a locking mechanism that slides back into the sleeve when not in use, protecting it from wear and tear. The high traffic sleeve is supplied complete with a galvanised steel sleeve plug that covers the hole whilst traffic and pedestrians pass over. A lifting key for the plug is also supplied to make removal of the plug easy.
