This lift assist post is particularly effective where bollards are operated repeatedly, such as:
• Service yards and loading bays
• Car parks with timed access
• Private roads and managed estates
• Retail forecourts and delivery areas
• School or healthcare access routes
The counterbalanced action reduces manual strain, making it a sensible choice for facilities teams and contractors responsible for routine access management.
Unlike a standard removable bollard that must be fully lifted from a socket, this telescopic design remains securely housed below ground when not in use.
Key advantages include:
• Easier lifting through assisted mechanism
• Reduced risk of manual handling injury
• No loose post to store when lowered
• Faster operation for authorised users
This makes it an effective removable security bollard option where convenience and compliance are important.
The standard bollard supplied is:
• 670mm height
• 90mm square section
Manufactured for demanding outdoor use, the post is designed to withstand regular handling and exposure in busy external settings.
Its understated styling ensures it can be specified confidently across both heritage-sensitive and modern schemes.
A counterbalanced bollard is often specified in locations where security needs change throughout the day, including:
• Pedestrian zones with scheduled vehicle access
• Town centre service routes
• Visitor attractions and civic spaces
• Residential developments with controlled entry
It can also be paired with other access management products, such as fixed bollards, barrier systems, or Broxap’s wider range of street furniture to maintain a coordinated streetscape.
Lift assist bollards are frequently installed alongside:
• Fixed steel bollards for permanent perimeter definition
• Removable posts for secondary access points
• Signage and wayfinding to clarify restricted zones
• Broxap street furniture ranges for consistent public realm design
Broxap can advise on layout, spacing, and installation requirements to ensure the system performs reliably over the long term.
