A bollard is a short post used to create a protective or architectural perimeter. In recent years, the use of bollards has become increasingly popular as a means of protecting commercial infrastructure and property.
Bollards are commonly made of concrete and can be found in a variety of settings such as sidewalks, parking lots and driveways.
When installed primarily as a visual guide, they guide traffic and mark boundaries.
As a business or commercial property owner, you are responsible for the safety of your employees, customers, and property.
In many cases, bollards can be used near a vulnerable gas or water meters, for example, to protect against accidents. You can see from the photo above on a bollard repair and installation Scout's Custom Concrete did in Henderson, NC, the fire hydrant was protected from vehicular damage.
