Bolt-down bollards are fixed to a solid surface using anchor bolts. They are ideal for sites with existing concrete foundations and where minimal ground disruption is required.
Dig-in bollards are embedded into the ground and set in concrete. They are suitable for locations without a prepared surface or where a deeper installation is preferred for increased strength and durability.
A bolt-down bollard is normally installed by:
- Identifying a suitable location with a solid base ( a concrete base is ideal)
- Marking the fixing positions using the bollard’s base plate.
- Drilling the holes for the anchor bolts.
- Positioning the bollard and securing it using the supplied fixings. ( Make sure yo you request fixings when ordering your bollard)
- Checking the bollard is level and secure before use.
This method is relatively quick and avoids excavation.
A dig-in bollard installation typically involves:
- Excavating a hole to the required depth and width.
- Positioning the bollard so it sits vertically.
- Pouring concrete around the bollard to secure it in place.
- Allowing the concrete to cure fully before use.
This method provides a strong and durable installation suitable for soft ground or where additional stability is required.
Bollard size depends on the intended use:
- Car parks: Standard-sized bollards (approx. 800–1,000 mm above ground) provide clear visibility and protect vehicles and infrastructure.
- Pedestrian access: Mid-sized bollards with clear spacing help guide foot traffic while restricting vehicles. Height is usually around 900–1,000 mm above ground.
- Preventing vehicle access: Heavy-duty bollards with deeper foundations or reinforced designs are recommended, typically 900–1,200 mm above ground. Dig-in options are often preferred for maximum strength.
If in doubt, choose a size that balances visibility, safety, and the level of protection required for your environment.
