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.
31% of homes in Dartford 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 Dartford 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.

“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 Dartford 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 Dartford, including Wilmington, Stone, Greenhithe, Temple Hill, Swanscombe, Sutton-at-Hone, Darenth, Bean (DA1, DA2, DA4, DA9, DA10). 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 Dartford Borough Council first.
If they’re on the road across your dropped kerb, contact Dartford Borough Council, and ask Dartford Borough 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.
