Randfontein notes on bollard types
Mine and plant sites use heavy galvanised steel posts, often 168 mm pipe filled with concrete, around pipelines, transformers and fuel bays. In town, precast domes and cylinders suit taxi stops and municipal parks, and they are hard to steal, which matters for steel. Homeowners in Greenhills tend to choose simple powder coated driveway posts or a pair of precast units.
Sites and streets in Randfontein
Randfontein was built on gold, and the mines, plants and tailings dams around it, out to Westonaria, still shape the work. Mine and plant sites want guardrails along haul roads, steel posts protecting pipelines and substations, and boom gates at the security gate, often with heavy truck traffic all day. The town itself is smaller and quieter: family homes in Greenhills and Randgate, a modest CBD with taxi traffic, and community spaces in Mohlakeng and Toekomsrus where the municipality uses posts to keep cars off parks and sidewalks. Much of the far West Rand lies on dolomite, so deep holes need care. Many installers drive in from Krugersdorp and Roodepoort, while local engineering shops supply the mines.
Who asks for wooden bollards around Randfontein, most often first:
- Warehouses, factories and depots: marking haul road edges and yard boundaries on rural sites
- Municipalities and public spaces: park edges, picnic sites and beach parking above the dunes
- Homeowners: a row of timber posts keeping cars off the lawn on a smallholding
