A Folding Driveway Security Post utilises a padlock mechanism to secure it in place, providing security when in an upright position. Various models of folding parking posts exist, some designed to lock in place with a key, while others feature a padlock mechanism. Regardless of the locking mechanism, these posts are engineered to resist removal, acting as a deterrent to potential thieves.
When access is required in and out of the driveway with a vehicle, these security posts must be manually lowered onto the driveway. This ensures that only authorised vehicles can enter, adding an extra layer of security to the property and deterring potential intruders. It's crucial to install these posts on your private driveway and avoid fitting them to public highways, pavements, or roads.
Folding posts are typically secured to the ground either by bolts screwed into the paving surface or by fixing a base with concrete within the driveway for the post to fit into, ensuring stability and durability.
Folding, hinged, collapsible or drop-down driveway posts are usually the cheapest security posts for driveways you can have fitted. They give good security against being rammed with another vehicle. There is also a good selection to choose from. Although they are not as strong as a pull up telescopic post.
Size of the hole on the base for the padlock to go through is 12mm.
