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.
35% of homes in Hatfield 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 4 in 10 Hatfield households (36%) 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.

Your council is Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council. Here’s what to know locally, and where to go if someone blocks your drive.
Local parking
Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council has Verge and Footway Prohibition Orders on many Hatfield roads, so parking on a public verge, vehicle crossover or footway there can lead to a penalty charge at any time. New restrictions, including resident permit zones around Bishops Rise and Garden Avenue, started in south and east Hatfield in May 2025, and students living in a permit zone during term time can apply for a resident permit.

“Used Wentworth to install security bollards at my home. Highly professional, pleasure to work with, and incredibly happy with the result.”
“Got 3 bollards done for driveway after vehicle theft. Very pleased with the result and great company - on time and friendly and great work”
“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.”
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 36% of Hatfield 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 Hatfield, including Old Hatfield, South Hatfield, Ellenbrook, Roe Green, Birchwood, Oxlease, Hatfield Garden Village, Welham Green (AL9, AL10). 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 Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council first.
If they’re on the road across your dropped kerb, contact Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council (runs on-street parking enforcement). If they’re parking on your drive itself, a fold-down or telescopic parking post stops it for good.
