Bollard types in Sandton: local notes
Brushed grade 304 stainless is the default in Sandton, either solid looking tube over a steel core or a clad sleeve on a concrete filled post. Architects often specify matching bollard lights for forecourts. Bryanston and Hyde Park homes use powder coated or stainless driveway posts, while Alexandra's sidewalks get galvanised steel and precast units that are cheap to replace when a taxi clips one.
Sandton: the properties, the ground and the installers
Sandton is Africa's best known financial district, and the bollards here are expected to look as good as they work. Office towers around Rivonia Road, Maude Street and Grayston Drive use stainless and clad bollards at entrances, retractable posts at basement ramps and anti-ram lines around plazas where crowds gather. Luxury retailers and jewellers ask about ram raid protection, and the hotels want neat chain and post queues at the drop-off. Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside homes add driveway posts and lit garden paths. Alexandra next door has the opposite need: tough, cheap posts that keep taxis and cars off busy sidewalks. Many contractors who work here come from Wynberg, Marlboro and Kew, a few minutes away along the M1.
Typical wooden bollards requests in the area come from:
- Offices, hotels and car parks: lodges, wine farms and wedding venues edging gravel parking
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: farm stalls and padstal parking where steel would look out of place
- Homeowners: a row of timber posts keeping cars off the lawn on a smallholding
