Your standard fixed bollards at a glance
Our protective bollards are made from robust and environmentally friendly materials, ensuring optimal safety and exceptional durability.
We use sustainable materials such as hot-dip galvanized steel, stainless steel, and extruded 6005 TF aluminum, while incorporating protection against UV rays and temperature fluctuations.
A bollard is a short post designed and used to redirect traffic from a road or to separate roads from bicycle paths and sidewalks.
In recent years, the number of bicycle paths and sidewalks has increased significantly in various cities, increasing the desire for protection.
Removable rigid bollards: Removable rigid bollards can be placed in various locations to prevent motorists from entering a specific area or simply in parking lots. However, the distance between removable bollards allows pedestrians and cyclists to pass. Our protective bollards are easy to install, equipped with a lock at the bottom to secure and remove them at will.
Fixed rigid bollards: Fixed rigid bollards are available in several sizes, from 50 mm (2 inches) to 100 mm (4 inches) in diameter. Our experts will install bollards for added safety and convenience. Fixed bollards can also be chicanes planted in the ground, ideal for securing the entrance to a bike path or a multi-use trail.
Custom rigid bollards
Custom rigid bollards are designed according to specific measurements and specifications required by the city or municipality. We offer free design services to bring your ideas to life and ensure optimal protection.
Frequently Asked Questions
There is a wide variety of materials to meet the specific needs of your roads:
- Steel
- Stainless Steel
- Concrete
- Aluminum
- Thermoplastic Polyethylene
- Polyurethane
However, we mainly supply aluminum bollards. Aluminum is corrosion-resistant and easy to paint and customize. It is commonly used for aesthetic and modern bollards, fitting perfectly into standalone applications or as safety pipe covers.
Our impact protection bollards offer exceptional durability and a wide choice of colors to suit your environment.
Protective bollards are an essential choice for ensuring optimal safety in various environments. Whether for securing a bike path, a sidewalk, or the entrance to a building, protective bollards offer an effective physical barrier against vehicles.
Using materials such as galvanized steel or thermoplastic polyethylene, these safety products are designed to withstand impacts and temperature fluctuations, guaranteeing long-lasting protection. Furthermore, their installation is quick and can be customized to your needs, with options for flexible or removable bollards, depending on the areas to be secured.
The load a protective bollard can withstand depends on the material used and its type. For example, a galvanized steel or stainless steel safety bollard is designed to withstand significant impacts, making them ideal for high-traffic areas.
In contrast, a flexible bollard, made of polyurethane or thermoplastic polyethylene, is designed to flex slightly upon impact, thereby reducing damage to vehicles while maintaining good protection.
Our experts will help you choose the appropriate protective bollard, according to load specifications and installation type, whether for permanent or temporary installation.
The lifespan of a protective bollard depends mainly on the materials and the environment in which it is installed. Galvanized steel and aluminum protective bollards offer integral protection against corrosion and can last for decades, even when exposed to UV rays and extreme weather conditions.
Absolutely! At Kalitec, we offer a range of colors and finishes to match the quality design of your space. You can choose colors to personalize the appearance of your safety bollards, as well as different material options, including stainless steel and aluminum.
Our safety bollards can also be equipped with an additional protective sleeve to withstand temperature fluctuations and impacts.
The fixed bollard is designed to provide permanent protection for sidewalks, bike paths, public spaces, and urban infrastructure.
The removable bollard, on the other hand, allows for access control through its quick-release system. It can be easily removed to allow passage for emergency, maintenance, or delivery vehicles while ensuring user safety when in place.
Yes. Kalitec’s standard rigid bollards are equipped with five high-intensity reflective strips that improve their visibility day and night. This increased visibility allows motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians to quickly identify delimited areas and helps enhance road safety.
Yes. Made of aluminum and designed for outdoor use, standard rigid bollards are highly resistant to corrosion, temperature fluctuations, UV rays, and bad weather. They are a durable solution for municipalities and organizations looking for a low-maintenance fixture.
Rigid bollards require very little to no maintenance. Occasional cleaning and periodic visual inspections are usually sufficient to maintain their appearance and visibility. Their robust design and durable materials ensure they maintain their performance for many years, even in demanding urban environments.
