Keyless thieves don’t need your keys or a broken window. They copy your fob’s signal from outside the house and drive off quietly. A steel post locked upright in front of the car is the one thing they can’t get past in seconds.
43% of homes in Amersham are detached, and many sit behind a private drive set back from the road. That keeps cars off the street, but it can also keep a thief out of sight. A heavy-duty post or an automatic bollard in front of the car takes the getaway away.
51% of households in Amersham have two or more cars, so most drives here hold more than one overnight. We usually fit one post per car, placed in the path each car would take to leave.

Local parking
Amersham station is where Metropolitan line trains terminate, and Chiltern Railways trains also stop there on the way to Aylesbury. In 2020 Buckinghamshire Council completed the Amersham Parking Review, which covered Amersham, Old Amersham, Chesham Bois and Penn and received 368 responses before the new restrictions were made.

“Wentworth security were fantastic. Very speedy in replying to my query and even quicker to schedule the installation. The folks installing were polite, knowledgeable and friendly. They worked hard and completed the install in two hours. They cleaned up and even vacuumed the drive after. Can’t thank you all enough for a great job!”
“They made the whole process very easy. Turned up early and had the bollard installed within the hour. Now I have the worry of people parking in my space removed. Would definitely recommend Wentworth Security Bollards to others.”
“Just had a security post installed on my drive by Wentworth Driveway security. Really pleased with the whole experience. Excellent work, reasonable price and very accommodating. Big thanks to Flo for all your help Dean”
A raised, locked security post in front of your car stops it being driven off the drive, even if a thief has got in or copied a keyless fob. With 51% of Amersham households running two or more cars, we often fit one post per car. It’s the layer that still works when alarms and trackers don’t.
The same as everywhere we work. Fully fitted, telescopic security posts start from £799, heavy-duty from £949, automatic bollards from £2,999 and parking posts from £310. Every price includes fitting, concrete, drainage, making good and a full clean-up.
Yes. Our vetted local installers fit driveway security posts and parking posts across Amersham, including Old Amersham, Amersham on the Hill, Chesham Bois, Little Chalfont, Coleshill, Hyde Heath, Penn Street (HP6, HP7). Enter your postcode for your fitted price.
Usually not, for a bollard on your own drive. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with Buckinghamshire Council first.
If they’re on the road across your dropped kerb, contact Buckinghamshire Council, and ask Buckinghamshire Council about an H-bar marking. If they’re parking on your drive itself, a fold-down or telescopic parking post stops it for good.
