Middelburg notes on bollard types
Grade 304 stainless is enough this far inland, so there is no need to pay for 316 unless a chemical plant says otherwise. For impact, ask for a steel or concrete core inside the tube. Plant roads use painted mild steel pipe, and the municipality has used precast posts along sidewalks in the CBD. Bollard lights along paths in Aerorand complexes are usually mains powered by an electrician who issues a CoC.
Middelburg: the properties, the ground and the installers
Stainless steel is made on the edge of Middelburg, and that shows in what buyers here ask about. Architects and office owners in town are more likely to specify brushed 304 posts for a forecourt, and local fabricators are used to working with the metal. The rest of the demand is industrial: smelters, ferrochrome works and the coal mines toward Hendrina want heavy steel posts and guardrails along internal roads. Retail centres near the N4 and the N11 deal with trolleys, delivery trucks and the odd smash and grab, while Aerorand and Kanonkop have newer complexes with boom gates. Precast yards are fewer here than in Gauteng, so heavy concrete units often come in on a crane truck.
Typical concrete bollards requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: big units around gas tanks, transformers and yard corners
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: a heavy row in front of shopfronts and around fuel pump islands
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: dome bollards along visitor parking and the edges of internal roads
