Easy to use bollards. I chose this smaller size because of the lighter weight. The fitter, Scott, was excellent.

Took about 2-3weeks for the order, however the guys who fitted them were in regular contact to coordinate fitting of 2 posts within a day, so overall the delivery and fitting was in a reasonable time frame. The fitting was easy here as the ground conditions were good and the 2 posts were completed in one hour! Although on the expensive side, the posts are robust and well made. I would have ordered more post if the discount rate would have increased (fitting of more posts), however it wasn’t to be. Overall I’m very happy with the product and installation.

Our experience with Security Bollards Direct was first class. Delivery was on time , phone and email queries were answered promptly with the knowledge and understanding of what was being purchased and installed. The guys that installed the bollards were very professional and measurements were perfect as the resin bound drive had not been laid yet. We have recommended to neighbours and friends . First class service.

Brilliant job with the installers, Scott & Craig. Knew their stuff and did all their checks, provided recommendations on placement and were happy to accommodate where we wanted them to be. Neat job and even fixed a piece on the side of the driveway for us. Very pleased with the brilliant service and will be getting another one in the near future to go in the middle of these two bollards! Thanks Scott & Craig & the security bollard direct team.

Store owner replied: Thanks for your review Kerry, we did our best to help and were glad you're happy. We wish you all the best for the new year:)
We have had two bollards installed, second one after the driveway was extended. Very pleased with look and increased security of vehicles on the driveway. The oil was purchased to keep them both in good condition. Delivery was when expected and very well packed.

Store owner replied: Thank you Jill for such a great review, it's much appreciated. Look after your bollards and they will look after your vehicles :)
We needed to match the existing bollard after we had our driveway extended. This was easily arranged with the same lock as the original so we only need one key to operate both bollards. The stainless steel is easy to maintain and looks very smart as well as being functional. Dean and colleagues installed it in good time and we are very pleased with the result.

This 'High-Security' retractable bollard is hand-built to order, so you should allow 10-14 days for delivery, and if you are ordering 5 or more bollards, you should allow another 3-4 days. However, if your application is urgent and you need your bollard(s) before then, it's always worth giving us a call to see what we can do.
If you add installation to your order, we aim to install your bollard(s) within 21 days. Alternatively, if you don't want to wait that long, our range of 'Speed Buys' are available with guaranteed delivery and installation within 7 days.
Our installation service covers most of the UK mainland. Use our postcode checker tool to see if we carry out installations in your area.
This bollard is generally used to protect a saloon or estate sized vehicle on your driveway. Alternatively, if you have a 4x4, SUV, or a Large Van that you want to protect, then you may want to consider one of our large or heavy-duty telescopic bollards.
To secure the vehicle(s) on your driveway, you can either position your bollard(s) across the entrance of your driveway or directly behind the vehicle(s) you want to protect.
You should look to have a drive through gap of no more than 1.5 mtrs between your bollard(s) and a boundary. The ideal drive through gap should be 1.3 mtrs, but it all depends on the type and width of vehicles you are looking to protect.
This telescopic bollard has the 'Award Winning' 10 pin high-security 'CamLock' inserted into the crown. This lock can't be picked or drilled, and the keys can not be cut.
Yes, all of the internal components, such as the lock, hinged lid, handle, and inner bollard can be replaced in situ without having to remove the bollard casing from within the ground.
All of the high-security telescopic bollards come with a comprehensive 12 month guarantee.
Please Note: This guarantee does not cover impact damage and wear and tear of the top lock due to a lack of maintenance and lubrication (regular lubrication of the top-lock is required on a monthly basis).
