Bollards

Bollards are metal posts that block vehicle access to pedestrian and parking areas. Unlike a boom barrier, a bollard has no arm: it stays fixed, is removed by hand, is raised by a spring or rises from the ground on command. The catalogue covers four types of TiSO and FAAC bollards, from parking posts to anti-ram security bollards.

How to choose bollards

• How often the entrance opens. For many openings a day, choose an automatic model with a hydraulic drive. Occasional service access needs a semi-automatic or removable model; a permanent closure needs a fixed one.
• Power. Automatic models run on 230 V, TiSO ASTM anti-ram models on 400 V. Fixed and removable bollards need no power.
• Protection level. Parking models restrict traffic; anti-ram models are built for deliberate impact. TiSO ASTM M30 and M50 stop a 6,800 kg truck at 50 and 80 km/h.
• Height and diameter. Height above the road is 600–1200 mm, cylinder diameter 114–355 mm.
• Climate. FAAC hydraulic models operate from -15 °C; J275 HA, JS 48 HA and JS 80 HA go down to -40 °C with heating. TiSO RB343-21 is rated -10 to +40 °C without heating and -40 to +60 °C with it.

Types of bollards

• Automatic — hydraulic drive, raised by remote control. Height 600–1200 mm, diameter 114–325 mm, rise time 4–9 s. Anti-ram: TiSO ASTM M30 and M50, FAAC J275 HA 2K20, JS 48 HA, JS 80 HA.
• Semi-automatic — TiSO RB343-60 and FAAC J275 SA are raised by a gas spring. RB343-60 is locked by hand in the up and down positions, J275 SA is released with a key. Height 600–800 mm, diameter 114–275 mm.
• Fixed — permanent posts that close a passage for good, no power. Height 600–1200 mm, diameter 114–355 mm. Anti-ram: TiSO ASTM/IWA M50 and FAAC JS 80 F.
• Removable — lifted out or lowered by hand, no power. Height 600–1000 mm, diameter 114–325 mm. Anti-ram: TiSO M30, M40, M50, FAAC JS 48 R and JS 80 R.

Where they are used

Parking bollards go on pedestrian streets and squares, outside shopping centres, shops and offices, and in residential courtyards. Automatic bollards suit high-traffic access roads; anti-ram models protect military infrastructure, government buildings and stadiums.

FAQ

How much does a bollard cost?

We quote every bollard on request: the price depends on the type, height, material and protection class. Send us the entrance layout and we will price the set and installation.

Which bollard works where there is no power at the entrance?

A fixed, removable or semi-automatic TiSO RB343-60 or FAAC J275 SA.

What makes a bollard anti-ram?

An anti-ram bollard has a confirmed impact rating and stops a truck. For example, the fixed TiSO ASTM/IWA M50 stops a 7.2-tonne truck at 80 km/h, confirmed by ASTM F2656 (class M50) and IWA 14-1 tests.
