Benefits of Bollards & Traffic Posts 

December 17, 2021

When you need temporary protection, such as in busy streetscapes, areas where pedestrians assemble for a special event, or car parks that are obstructed or already full, moveable bollards offer it. Shelter Store discusses the main advantages of detachable bollards and why you should consider them.

Security bollards are critical in maintaining the safety of a particular border. They can physically prevent unauthorised persons or vehicles from entering or leaving a certain area.

Benefits of Removable Bollards 

Built to last

Their endurance improves the aesthetics of your parking lot and other areas where they may be found. Our removable bollards can be utilised to create a more contemporary and appealing appearance. They stand out because of their black and white colour scheme and reflectors.

Low-maintenance

Our Parking Posts & Bollards can withstand heat and other extreme weather conditions. Because they are made of steel, which does not rust, they are also non-corrosive. The heavy-duty square steel section, lockable hinged base-plate cover, and reflectors make it ideal for premium vehicle protection. 

Heightened safety 

In car parks, pedestrians benefit from bollards in more ways than one. Removable bollards are also used to limit vehicle access and offer a safer environment for people in places like museums, parks, stadiums, and theatres. They help to regulate the flow of people entering and exiting theatres and museums by blocking off regions. They are also used to notify motorists that they are not authorised to enter particular zones strictly for bicycling and walking.

As you can see from the examples above, detachable bollards serve a variety of ways. In locations around stadiums, such as smoking areas outside the venue, pedestrians are shielded from vehicles. They enhance the aesthetic attractiveness of many commercial and industrial properties while also offering significant peace of mind.

Temporary restricted entry

When not in use, they can be removed and when cars need to be temporarily kept out of a certain location, such as a sports facility or a hospital, they can be used to indicate prohibited entry. If your facility or another business needs to block off a site for a party or other special occasion, they may be utilised to close off an area for a party or other special event. When the event is done, they are readily removed.

Breaking up traffic with bollards

Removable bollards separate pedestrian traffic in your car park, ensuring safety. They make it simple to build distinct lanes. They also protect the perimeter from oncoming vehicles. If you’ve had problems with parking lot safety, why not explore utilising our detachable bollards?
