Automatic Rising Bollards for Residential & Commercial Security

Automatic Rising Bollards

Automatic rising bollards provide a stylish and practical solution for controlling vehicle access. They are ideal for locations with limited space or where gates and barriers may not be suitable. When retracted, they remain discreet, and when raised, they offer a secure, automated way to manage access.

For residential properties, they serve as a sleek and functional alternative to gates, particularly where planning restrictions apply. In commercial settings, rising bollards are often installed behind gates for added security, especially at night. This extra layer of protection helps prevent unauthorised vehicle access when gates are not actively monitored.

We offer a wide range of rising bollards for both residential and commercial applications, ensuring a solution tailored to your specific needs.
