Most cars stolen from homes are taken from the driveway without the keys: a relay device copies the signal from a keyless fob inside the house, and the car is gone in under a minute. A locked post in front of it means it can’t be driven away, however the thief got in.
46% of homes in Stevenage 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 Stevenage households (38%) 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 Stevenage Borough Council. Here’s what to know locally, and where to go if someone blocks your drive.
Local parking
Civil enforcement officers in Stevenage have enforced obstruction of dropped kerbs since August 2009, and a car counts as blocking one if any wheel is next to the dropped kerb or the sloping kerb either side of it. Residents can also apply to Stevenage Borough Council for an advisory white H-bar marking across their driveway entrance, which costs £150.
Cars blocking your drive?
Ask for an H-bar markingA white H-bar line across your dropped kerb makes it clear no one should park there. Apply through Stevenage Borough Council (parking authority, on behalf of Hertfordshire County Council).Open council page ↗Planning

“Very quick turnaround from quotation to installation. James and the team were very friendly, helpful, and provided good advice. The team arrived on time on the day of fitting and left the driveway really clean, neat and tidy. Their price is higher than some competitors, and other places include a 3-year warranty in their price. Overall, a really good company and a positive experience. Thanks to James and the team for helping secure my driveway!”
“Very efficient and neat fitting of two stainless steel bollards by Dean. Would highly recommend this service to others thinking of increasing their security at home. Thank you Wentworth Driveway Security Bollards.”
“Wentworth security Bollards have just fitted a telescopic bollard on my drive. I was worried as I didn’t want my paved drive too disrupted, however they arrived fitted the bollard quickly, cleaning with minimal impact to drive. I’m very happy with service.”
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 38% of Stevenage 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 Stevenage, including Old Town, Shephall, Bedwell, Broadwater, Chells, Pin Green, Symonds Green, St Nicholas (SG1, SG2). 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 Stevenage Borough Council first.
If they’re on the road across your dropped kerb, contact Stevenage Borough Council (runs on-street parking enforcement), and ask Stevenage Borough Council (parking authority, on behalf of Hertfordshire County 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.
