Bollard types in Alberton: local notes
In Alrode the choice is heavy: thick wall steel pipe, concrete filled and galvanised, often 168 mm or bigger at loading bays and tank farms. Meyersdal estates prefer stone clad, cast concrete or stainless bollards that suit the ridge, with LED or solar bollard lights along winding roads. Brackenhurst and Randhart homes usually go for simple powder coated driveway posts.
Alberton: the properties, the ground and the installers
Two very different Albertons ask for bollards. Alrode, one of the bigger heavy industrial areas south of Johannesburg, is full of steel works, foundries, chemical plants and truck depots off the R59 and Heidelberg Road, and it buys heavy posts, guardrail and boom gates by the dozen. Up on the Klipriviersberg ridge, Meyersdal's security estates and large homes want decorative and lit bollards, retractable posts at gates and neat speed humps. In between, Brackenhurst, Brackendowns and Randhart have family homes and complexes, while New Redruth's shopping streets and Thokoza's busy routes need sidewalk protection. Rock is shallow on the ridge, and Alrode's own fabricators make supply quick.
The requests we see from Alberton usually come from:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: marking haul road edges and yard boundaries on rural sites
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: posts along nature trails, dams and open spaces in a country estate
- Homeowners: a row of timber posts keeping cars off the lawn on a smallholding
