Silver Steel Telescopic Bollard
A silver powder-coated steel telescopic bollard, 500mm tall when raised. It lifts up and locks with a key, then lowers into a sleeve in your drive so you can park over it. The steel is galvanised underneath the colour coat, so it's protected twice.

Questions about this post
How much is the silver steel telescopic bollard fitted?
£659 for the first post, fully fitted, and £609 for each extra post on the same job. We're not VAT registered, so there's nothing added on top.
How heavy is it to lift?
You lift about 6kg. If lifting is a struggle, look at our lift-assist bollards.
How deep does it go into the ground?
The sleeve goes 700mm into the drive and is set in concrete. We scan for buried cables and pipes before we dig, and move the position if we find one.
What if I lose a key?
It comes with two keys, and we can supply replacements or change the lock.
Can I have more than one?
Yes. Each extra post on the same job is £50 less, because most of the cost is getting to you, scanning and setting up. Two or three posts are usually done in a morning.
