Steel bollards come in various sizes, depending on the intended purpose (6″ and four inches are the most popular). They may be lighted, painted, or have durable vinyl covers in multiple colors to complement your facilities.
They also come in retractable, collapsable, removable, and fixed options.

Traffic bollards direct traffic to specific areas while maintaining clear sight lines and allowing pedestrian access.

Bollard Installation FAQs
See the answers to the most frequently asked questions about crash-rated bollard installation from our valued customers in Central Oklahoma.
Will a bollard stop a car?
Permanent bollards are one of the most frequent traffic-stopping measures. They may be seen near crosswalks, corners, in front of businesses, and most other areas with high foot traffic. Bollards come in various sizes; the bigger ones can even stop a fully laden truck.
Why are bollards so strong?
Steel is a highly robust material, and security bollards are built with it. It is not the bollard that will fail in most well-engineered bollard installations. Instead, it is the pivot. The bollard pushes on the ground, opposing the impact, which must also endure the force of the impact as well.
How high should security bollards be?
Bollards must be installed so that the top of the device is no less than three feet and no more than four feet tall, measured from the completed grade directly adjacent to the perimeter of the bollard.
Where are crash-rated bollards commonly used?
Crash-rated bollards are commonly used in high-security areas such as government buildings, military installations, airports, and critical infrastructure sites to safeguard against potential vehicular threats.
How are crash-rated bollards tested?
Crash-rated bollards undergo rigorous testing, typically following standards like ASTM F2656, which assesses their ability to withstand various levels of impact force from different types of vehicles.
What types of vehicles can crash-rated bollards resist?
Crash-rated bollards are designed to resist the impact of various vehicles, including cars, trucks, and even larger vehicles, depending on their specific crash rating.
