Thieves can open and start many modern cars without the keys, but they still need to drive them off the drive. A security post set deep in concrete blocks that getaway, so the car stays where you left it.
31% of homes in Borehamwood are terraced, where a drive is often just one car’s length off the road. A telescopic post sits flush when it’s down, so it doesn’t take up room on a short drive.
Around 3 in 10 Borehamwood households (34%) have two or more cars. If both are on the drive, one post placed across the only way out, or one in front of each car, keeps them both where you left them.

Local parking
Borehamwood is home to Elstree Studios, which Hertsmere Borough Council bought in 1996, and to Sky Studios Elstree, and in 2025 the council approved plans to turn part of the former BBC Elstree site into Fairbanks Studios. The council manages on-street parking in the town and in 2024 asked residents for their views in a review of Borehamwood's controlled parking zones.
