What makes a bollard heavy-duty?

A heavy-duty bollard uses thicker steel than a standard post, so it takes far more force to bend, cut or lever out. Ours is a 670mm telescopic security post built for heavier vehicles like 4x4s and vans, and like every bollard we fit, its sleeve is set deep in concrete.

“James at Wentworth Driveway Security was very helpful. We got the whole job done, from quote to fitting in just four days. The bollards are fully electric, and I feel more at ease now leaving my car on the driveway overnight. Especially with all the thieves about.”

Heavy-duty bollards: what to know

What makes a bollard heavy-duty?

Thicker steel and a stronger build. It takes more force to bend, cut or lever out, which matters most for heavier vehicles that can push harder against a post.

Is a heavy-duty bollard anti-ram?

"Anti-ram" usually describes bollards crash-tested to standards like PAS 68 for commercial sites, shopfronts and public spaces. Our heavy-duty bollard isn’t crash-tested. It’s built for home driveways: to resist being rammed, levered or cut by someone trying to drive a car away.

Who needs a heavy-duty bollard?

If you drive a high-value car, a 4x4 or a van, or cars have been taken on your road before, heavy-duty is the safer choice. For most other drives, a standard telescopic bollard does the job.

Can a bollard stop a truck?

Crash-tested commercial bollards are designed to stop trucks at speed. A driveway bollard is designed for a different job: stopping your car being driven off the drive. A heavy-duty post makes that much harder, even with a bigger vehicle.

Heavy-duty bollards: your questions answered

What is an anti-ram bollard?

An anti-ram bollard is built to stop or slow a vehicle being driven into it. The term is usually used for crash-tested commercial bollards. Our heavy-duty driveway bollard isn’t crash-tested; it’s a thicker-steel telescopic post built to resist being rammed or levered on a home drive.

How much does a heavy-duty bollard cost?

Our heavy-duty telescopic bollard costs £949 fitted, in any of 8 colours. That includes fitting, concrete, drainage, making good and a full clean-up.

What colours do heavy-duty bollards come in?

Black, blue, green, red, silver, slate grey, white and yellow, all in a powder-coated finish.

Are heavy-duty bollards worth it?

For high-value cars, 4x4s and vans, yes. The extra strength costs a little more than a standard post, and it’s the post that matters most when someone is determined.
