The square fold-down bollard is an innovative traffic control device offering a convenient and cost-effective solution for access restriction. As a type of bollard, it serves to manage traffic flow and safeguard pedestrians and property. When not in use, it can be folded down onto the ground, allowing unimpeded vehicle passage.
These bollards come in various sizes to suit diverse requirements, typically crafted from steel and available in temporary or permanent configurations. Temporary options often feature padlocks, while permanent ones are typically anchored into the ground.
Ideal for safeguarding car parks, driveways, sidewalks, and public areas, square fold-down bollards are also effective in restricting access to buildings or restricted zones like airports or government facilities. Installation is straightforward, typically involving bolting to the ground, and maintenance requirements are minimal.
Beyond their security function, these bollards offer aesthetic appeal, enhancing the visual appeal of the surroundings. However, note that direct installation into tarmac or block paving may not be ideal. To address this, a Build-In Base solution is available for seamless integration.

A folding residential parking post uses a padlock to secure it in place and gives security when upright. They can be padlocked in the down position when not in use to stop the theft of the post. There are variations with different makes and models of drop-down security posts.
To ensure protection, these barriers must be manually lowered onto the driveway when access is required. Manual lowering offers a swift and effortless way to lower the barrier, requiring no specialised tools or equipment. This makes it an ideal solution for those seeking quick and easy access to their driveway without risking any damage. Additionally, manual lowering ensures that the barrier is only deployed when needed, preventing unnecessary wear and tear.
It's crucial to note that these barriers should solely be installed on private driveways and never on public highways, pavements, or roads. The folding parking post is securely anchored to the ground using bolts screwed into a concrete base on the driveway.
In general, fold-down, hinged, or drop-down posts represent the most economical driveway security solution.
