Plated Bollard Covers are an innovative solutions from Ideal Shield that is designed to cover both the pipe and the base plate.

The Plated Bollard Covers are made from Low-Density Thermoplastic Polyethylene with Ultra-Violet and Anti-Static Additives and available in two different sizes, including 6″ x 48″ with the ability cover a standard 10″ x 10″ x 5/8″ base plate or in 4″ x 42″ with ability to cover a standard 8″ x 8″ x 5/8″ base plate.

Both options offer 2.5″ of room underneath the plate area to cover exposed installation bolts. This will hide ugly, rusted bolt down base plates for a cleaner aesthetic as well as cover the bolts which can be dangerous on shop floors or retail storefronts.

The Plated Bollard Cover is available in two different sizes including 6" x 48" and 4" x 42". Contact us for more information.
The 6" x 48" Plated Bollard Cover can fit over a 10" x 10" x 5/8" square base plate while the 4" x 42" Plated Bollard Cover can fit over a 8" x 8" x 5/8" square base plate. There is roughly 2.5" of room (height) for exposed anchor bolts under the plastic plate cover.
Measure the circumference (distance around the post) Take that dimension and divide it by pi (3.14) Example: Circumference is 21″ Divide by 3.14 Pipe size in 6.625″ The bollard cover size you need is 6″
Pipe is measured by inside diameter. For example, 6″ pipe has an outside diameter of 6 5/8″. Our bollard sizes coincide with the pipe’s outside diameter, ex. our 6″ cover has an inside diameter of about 6 7/8″ to fit over the 6 5/8″ outside diameter of a 6” pipe.
Each bollard cover is delivered with two pieces of our patented foam neoprene tape. Apply the neoprene tape around the circumference of the steel bollard 3″ down from the top of the post and 3″ up from the bottom of the post. Once the tape is applied, slide the bollard cover over, eliciting the sound of air squeezing out between the post and sleeve as it creates a vacuum seal. If the above directions are followed correctly, the Ideal Shield Bollard Cover should fit tight with no gaps.

What our customers are saying

“We purchased some sign bollard covers from you all a few months ago and they work great! So far we’ve had 0 signs fall over in our parking lot. This time last year we had 2-3 fall over so already we’ve saved roughly $500 dollars in damages.”

William Myers - Amazon

“I have been truly impressed with the covers we bought from you so many years ago. They have been exposed to direct sunlight for years and have not faded one bit after all this time! Kudos!”

Mark C. - UBT

“First and foremost, we have loved the sign bases. They have gone through the various states of weather that Minnesota has to offer and they are withstanding the weather and doing a great job for us. At this time, we have all of our needs, however, after the Super Bowl and when we head into our spring events we could be looking to purchasing additional signs. ” 

Representative from US Bank Stadium, home of the Minnesota Vikings & Super Bowl 52

“This is just what we were looking for. Well made. We will be installing it next week. Everyone here is excited to have a railing to hang onto with winter coming. We at St. Cyprian thank you and your facility for help us.”

Carl Baltosiewich w/St. Cyprian

“When compared to other railing systems, Ideal Shield’s anchor system is cost-efficient and super strong – plus fully removable for relocation. Ideal Shield offers quality products that are very durable and never require painting.”

Donnie Frederick - Odessa College

“Ideal Shield has helped me out of many issues over the last couple of years. The restaurant business is always under a sense of urgency. It’s refreshing when someone drops everything & goes the extra mile to help. That is VERY rare this day & age.” 

Kari Carper - BDH Contracting
