Concrete bollards are an essential element of safety and security, protecting pedestrians and buildings against vehicle-borne threats, including ram-raiding. These heavy duty barriers can be sub-mounted to ensure they will not easily be knocked over, and offer a wide range of design options to suit any architectural aesthetic. Whether you are looking to create an effective perimeter around traffic controlled zones, demarcate areas for pedestrian use, or simply protect your building from ram-raiding and vandalism; our range of bollards is the perfect solution.

A bollard is a short, solid post that was originally used for mooring ships but has since expanded in meaning to include posts installed to control road traffic and prevent automotive vehicles from crashing into pedestrians or structures. Increasingly common in public spaces, they can be found guarding businesses and historical buildings, shopping centres, schools, airports and residential complexes.

The most obvious and common use for a concrete bollard is to keep pedestrians safe, preventing them from crossing roads or walking too close to dangerous vehicles. However, they also serve a number of other valuable functions that can be very beneficial to businesses and public spaces alike.

When selecting a concrete bollard, you will find that the Street Scape range offers a selection of different shapes and sizes to best suit your requirements. You will also be able to choose between an exposed aggregate or painted finish to fit the design and style of your space. Our bollards can be customised with various light fixtures to illuminate walkways and to provide added visibility in your area at night.

Many of our customers opt for a bollard with a folding functionality to help them reserve parking spots. These can be manually operated or automated and can also be integrated with a boom gate to allow authorized vehicles to enter the reserved area.

Another popular function for a bollard is to act as a visual barrier to stop vehicles from parking too close to a building or pedestrian area. Street Scape has a number of designs that are ideal for this purpose, such as our round 600 flat top concrete bollards, which can be fitted with a series of lights to help pedestrians navigate through the space.

While the most common use for a concrete bollard remains to protect people and buildings, they can also be used as a way to brand your business or draw attention to a particular location. For example, a sports shop can take advantage of the blank canvas that a concrete bollard provides and add relevant designs to the surface to promote their products and services.

Although a damaged bollard may need to be replaced, it will always be far easier and cheaper than repairing a building or the contents of a car that has crashed into it. That is why it is so important to ensure that you choose a concrete bollard with a high level of quality and strength, such as the ones available from Street Scape.
