Removable Bollards in Johannesburg
Looking for removable bollards in Johannesburg? Say how many posts, how wide the opening is, whether the surface is paving, tar or a slab, and how often the posts will come out. Suppliers and installers around Johannesburg can then quote for the posts, sleeves and fitting.
The main removable bollards page explains the types, the fixing and the costs in more detail.
Security & access in Johannesburg: local notes
Ram raids on shopping centres, cellphone shops and ATMs keep security bollards in demand from Northcliff to the south. Ask what a post is built to stop, because a hollow tube bolted into paving only deters. Townhouse complexes in Fourways and Melville often fit removable posts at a second gate, and warehouses in City Deep and Wynberg want yellow steel posts at dock doors and racking ends to keep forklifts and trucks off the walls.
Johannesburg: the properties, the ground and the installers
In Johannesburg the bollard question is usually about the sidewalk. Minibus taxis pulling onto pavements around the CBD ranks, delivery trucks mounting kerbs in Marshalltown and Braamfontein, and cars parked across shop entrances in Soweto and along Louis Botha Avenue all push owners and the city towards rows of posts. Shopping centres and cash handling sites deal with ram raids, while townhouse complexes from Fourways to the south want boom gates and humps. Steel fabricators and precast suppliers sit in City Deep, Industria, Denver and Wynberg, close to the M1, M2 and N12. Under old CBD paving there are cables, fibre and water mains nobody has drawn properly, so ask about a cable locator and a municipal wayleave before anyone breaks ground.
Typical removable bollards requests in the area come from:
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: delivery lanes at a small centre opened once a week for a truck
- Municipalities and public spaces: market squares and parks opened for event setup and cleaning trucks
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: emergency access lanes kept closed with posts the body corporate holds keys for
Local tips for Johannesburg
Common here: sidewalk and taxi rank bollards, ram raid posts for shops, complex boom gates. Ask each installer about this: ask who arranges the wayleave and the service scan before sidewalk work starts. Where they work from: city Deep, Industria, Denver and Wynberg, with yards along the M1 and N12.
Removable Bollards usually suit fire lanes, deliveries, events and driveways. The fixing: post locked into a cast-in ground sleeve. For shops, malls and petrol stations, the biggest group here, that usually means delivery lanes at a small centre opened once a week for a truck. On the ground and weather: summer storms and hail from October to March; rocky ridges in the north and west.
