Stainless Steel Bollards

Stainless steel security bollards

Stainless steel security bollards are an important feature in urban landscapes, providing style, elegance, and security.

Due to the increasing urbanisation trend that is currently evident within the UK over recent years, sub-contractors and contractors alike are turning to stainless steel bollards to protect areas such as pedestrian zones, commercial premises, and parking facilities.

Stainless steel security bollards for your project

According to the Trend Deck 2021: Urbanisation study, the urban population is projected to increase between 2018 and 2030. Also, a projected 28% of people worldwide will be concentrated in cities with at least 1 million inhabitants by 2030.

These are eye-watering statistics, and confirm the shift in population towards urban areas. This is still projected to be the case even after a post-pandemic society where there was an initial downturn in businesses renewing town and city centre tenancies.

Now businesses and workers are adapting more to a modern way of life, there is still growing desire for urban offices and city centre living.

These factors reinforce the need that commercial and residential developments within urban areas need to adopt a growing need for security measures. Internal measures include CCTV security cameras and alarm systems.

However there is a strong trend to adopt external measures also, as a preventative for people breaking into various commercial or residential premises. These include stainless steel security bollards.

Specialised security or landscaping sub-contractors are being tasked by larger contractors to specify and install security bollards for build developments.

Benefits of stainless steel bollards

Stainless steel security bollards are firm favourites with sub-contractors due to the following reasons:

Easy to work with

The nature of stainless steel bollards mean they are compact and lightweight, and easy to transport to site.

Our range of stainless steel bollards weigh from 7kg upwards (depending on diameter and other options). The reinforced stainless steel bollards are only 25kg per bollard.

Highly durable and reliable

It is important that the stainless steel bollards you install on your client’s project stand the test of time. Stainless steel is strong, impact resistant and has a high resistance to corrosion (which is important with the UK weather!)

Aesthetically, they look the part

Stainless steel gives a stylish finish and modern look. Street Furniture Direct are pleased to offer stainless steel bollards and telescopic bollards in our range.

Short lead times

Due to the simple structure of the bollards, our range of stainless steel security bollards are available in 5 working days (subject to time of order and stock levels). We can delivery straight to site for your convenience.

Retractable options available

If you are looking for a safe, secure stainless steel bollard with the flexibility for traffic calming measures, we have a range of stainless steel telescopic bollards – available in two diameters:

76mm diameter stainless steel telescopic bollards
90mm diameter stainless steel telescopic bollards

These bollards are popular in town centres, shopping centres, and other high traffic areas, and are available in a wide range of options for sub-contractors to choose from to suit their project requirements.

Reinforced stainless steel bollard

Our reinforced stainless steel bollards are one of the most popular bollards we offer here at Street Furniture Direct.

Urban planners and architects like them as they provide a high level of security and functionality, along with contemporary styling and minimal aesthetics.

Sub-contractors like them as they are a cost-effective security bollard that will generally always be fit for purpose according to the specification, as well as being easy to work with, transport, and install.

They are available in either Grade 304 or Grade 316 stainless steel (the Grade 316 makes them suitable for saline atmospheres such as coastal areas).

The security bollard is available in 3 standard diameters - 101mm, 114mm, and 140mm (other dimensions are available on request, subject to requirements).

You can also choose from 3 types of top option – semi domed, flat top, and mitred top.

Further enhancements include the option to have a reflective band around the top, in colours yellow, red, or white. These provide excellent visibility at night.

The reinforced stainless steel bollards offers the benefits of anti-ram for added security and protection for any area.

At our Cheshire-based facilities, we hold stock of 101mm and 114mm diameters with semi dome top in Grade 304. So of you wanted these they could be with you (or delivered to site) within 48 hours). For other versions or configurations, they carry a lead time of between 2-3 weeks.

Stainless steel telescopic bollards

Street Furniture Direct supply stainless steel telescopic bollards in two diameters 76mm and 90mm. These bollards provide greater functionality to static bollards with the ability to raise or lower the bollard unit.

If you require a bollard at the entrance to a carpark or if you need access to a town centre area, these are an ideal solution. The telescopic bollards are lockable and can be keyed alike or different, giving your client complete control over who has access.

Like our reinforced stainless steel bollards, our range of telescopic bollards are available in Grade 304 or Grade 316 (suitable for coastal locations). The stainless steel look ensures a slick look for your project.

The telescopic bollards work where the steel section is installed into the ground and a stainless steel bollard can be lifted for protection or lowered for access. Only light excavation is required to install the bollards.
