Pas68 Bollards

Safety bollards mark boundaries; protect assets; direct traffic; they restrict access. Simply put, a bollard is a short, strong pole that is designed to hinder vehicle access. It also protects buildings and high-security areas and helps prevent accidents. They’re a common sight in malls, public car parks, around roadworks and outside government buildings and banks. Bollards have become a part of modern landscape and architecture, and are available in various colours, sizes, and styles. Whether you need them as a temporary measure or a permanent fixture, there’s a bollard to suit your needs.

When security is at stake, you simply can’t compromise on quality. And that’s why at Australian Security Fencing, we pride ourselves in supplying only the best: Australian-made products that are designed to last. Hostile vehicle mitigation bollards are reliable safety products for asset protection, especially when it comes to businesses.

How are bollards rated for efficacy?

The K rating is a system of evaluating the ability of a structure to withstand an assault. A K-rated bollard is a type of security barrier used to protect against vehicular impact. They are typically made from high-strength concrete, steel, or plastic, and are often filled with concrete or sand for added weight and stability. A bollard with a K12 rating can withstand the impact of vehicles weighing up to 6 tonnes travelling at approximately 80 kph.

A permanently fixed bollard is a more heavy-duty style and is installed in strategic places for the highest level of security and protection.

Removable bollards are useful for high-traffic areas such as footpaths and driveways where perimeters need to be established and maintained but still require access. Removable bollards are a great option for you.

We Use Government Approved and Certified Permanent & Removable Bollards

While they may not be able to withstand as much force as a permanent fixture removable bollards are still generally made of stainless steel bollards and are an effective way to protect assets and guide traffic and pedestrians without compromising on ease of access.

There are many situations where both security and regular vehicular access are important. Retractable bollards – either automatic or manual – provide a physical barrier to the general public but can be retracted to allow access to authorized personnel and vehicles.

This type of bollard is commonly used to protect government facilities, military and defence bases, commercial building entrances and public parking lots.

When short-term perimeter control is needed, external locking bollards are the answer. These types are removable bollards. Public events and roadworks are two examples of situations where this bollard style is ideal. They provide a strong but temporary barrier to guide traffic and pedestrians and are easily removed once the need has passed.
