Materials & Finishes

Materials and finishes are selected based on impact requirements, environmental exposure, and site conditions. Bollard systems are fabricated to project specifications to provide protection, durability, and coordination with surrounding site elements.

  • Best For - Most fixed and removable safety bollard applications.
    Why It’s Used - High strength and impact resistance, well-suited for welded bollard construction.
    Common Applications - Vehicle protection, equipment guarding, storefront protection, and perimeter control.
    Note - Requires protective finishes for exterior exposure. Common Grades - ASTM A36, A53 (pipe), A500 (HSS)

  • Best For - Exterior bollards exposed to moisture or harsh environments.
    Why It’s Used - Hot‑dip galvanizing provides long‑term corrosion resistance for exposed steel.
    Common applications: Public spaces, industrial sites, loading areas, and exterior building protection. Standards - Typically galvanized per ASTM A123 (fabricated steel) and ASTM A153 (hardware) where specified. Appearance Note - Galvanized finishes provide excellent durability but result in a non-uniform, industrial appearance.

  • Best For - Architectural or specialty bollards requiring corrosion resistance and refined appearance.
    Why It’s Used - Durable and suitable for exposed environments where aesthetics are important.
    Common Applications - Entryways, pedestrian areas, storefronts, and architectural sites. Common Grades - 304 / 304L and 316 / 316L when specified.

Bollard Materials:

bollard types & configurations:

  • Permanent bollards anchored or embedded into concrete for continuous protection.

  • Bollards designed to be removed when access is required, commonly used in service drives, emergency access routes, or controlled entry points.

  • Heavy‑duty bollards fabricated to protect structures, equipment, and pedestrians from vehicle impact.

  • Bollards designed to integrate with site aesthetics while maintaining protective function.

  • Best For - Bollards receiving field‑applied coatings.
    Applied after fabrication to provide temporary corrosion protection prior to installation. Important Note - Shop primer is intended to reduce rust during shipping and handling and is not a final finish unless specifically noted in project specifications.

  • Best For - Exterior bollards requiring long‑term corrosion protection.
    Commonly specified for public, commercial, and industrial environments. Fabrication considerations are coordinated to support galvanizing requirements and long-term performance.

  • Best For - High‑visibility, safety‑coded, or architectural bollard applications.
    Provides durable finishes suitable for exposed environments. Color Considerations - Painted systems and powder-coated finishes may be used based on project requirements. Powder coating colors are typically selected from RAL standard ranges; metallic finishes may require a clear coat for consistency and durability
