Lift Assisted Telescopic Bollards
Identical in appearance to the standard manual telescopic bollards, but with the added advantage of being lift assisted.
These lift assisted telescopic bollards are designed to reduce the lifting weight of the bollard by up to 70%, allowing the units to be raised and lowered with minimum effort. The lift assist option is available on the larger-sized heavy-duty rising bollards, which are manufactured to an anti ram raid specification, and will provide the maximum protection against an attempted ram raid attack. Due to the additional weight of these heavy duty telescopic bollards – and to reduce the risk of any injury for the user – the lift assist option is available across our range of anti ram raid bollards.
The security bollards are raised vertically out of the ground, and when they’re in the upright position, they can then be locked into place using the integrated locking system. Lowering the bollard is a matter of simply unlocking it and lowering it back into the steel tube, which is concreted into the ground. A steel flap is then closed over the bollard, leaving the whole system flush with the ground level.
All of our telescopic bollards have been awarded the Sold Secure and Secure by Design accreditations.
