Frequently Asked Questions

How much do lift-assist bollards cost?

Lift-assist telescopic bollards typically cost £900–£1,600 fully installed — slightly more than standard telescopic bollards due to the gas strut mechanism. We provide free quotes tailored to your property.

How do lift-assist bollards work?

Unlock the bollard with a key and the gas strut gently helps the bollard raise with minimal lifting effort. To lower it, press down against the gas resistance and lock it flush. No heavy lifting required.

What's the difference between lift-assist and standard telescopic bollards?

Standard telescopic bollards require you to physically lift the post (typically 5–10kg) out of the ground. Lift-assist models use a gas strut to do most of the lifting for you — easier on your back and ideal for frequent use.

Who are lift-assist bollards best suited for?

Lift-assist bollards are ideal for anyone who uses their driveway frequently, has mobility limitations, or simply prefers not to bend and lift heavy. They offer the security of a telescopic bollard with the convenience of semi-automatic operation.

How long does the gas strut last?

Quality gas struts are rated for 10,000+ cycles — around 10–15 years of typical residential use. If the strut ever weakens, it can be replaced without changing the whole bollard.

Can lift-assist bollards be installed on any surface?

Yes — we install lift-assist bollards on block paving, tarmac, concrete, and resin driveways. Installation is the same as standard telescopic bollards: core drill, fit the sleeve, set the bollard.

Are lift-assist bollards as secure as standard telescopic bollards?

Yes — the security rating is identical. The gas strut only assists with raising the bollard; the locking mechanism and anti-theft features are the same as standard telescopic models.

How long does installation take?

Most lift-assist bollard installations take 1–2 hours — the same as standard telescopic bollards. We handle everything including core drilling, fitting the sleeve, and testing the gas strut operation.

Are telescopic and retractable bollards the same thing?

Yes — telescopic bollards and retractable bollards are the same product. Both terms describe bollards that retract into the ground when not in use. "Telescopic" refers to how the bollard slides into a sleeve, while "retractable" simply means it can be lowered.
