Base Plate Bollards Offer Quick Protection for Critical Assets

Quick and simple. Easy peasy. That’s the way of the world these days as everyone is looking to get what they want when they want and as soon as they want. Luckily for you, if you’re in the need of immediate protection in a hurry, there isn’t a better quick option on the market than our in-stock and ready to ship Base Plate Bollards

The quick install bollards are made from schedule 40 U.S. steel pipe which are available in four different diameter sizes: 

4″ Bollard with a 1/2″ x 8″ x 8″ base plate

5″ Bollard with 5/8″ x 10″ x 10″ base plate

6″ Bollard with 5/8″ x 10″ x 10″ base plate 

8″ Bollard with a 3/4″ x 12″ x 12″ base plate 

Other base plate options include our 1″ thick Super Duty base plate for stronger applications as well as limited trip hazard options including rounded base plates, beveled base plates, and hidden base plates. 

All four bollard options are available in our five standard heights (27”, 36”, 42”, 48”, 52″) though we can work with you to cut the bollards to your specific needs. 

As for finishes, we offer several different options to meet your exact needs. The most popular and recommended finish is sleeving the bollard in our 1/4″ or 1/8″ Bollard Covers, which can be done in any color. Other finish options include raw, galvanized, primed, or powder-coated.
