Metal Bollard Posts, Plastic Protective Barriers, Steel Pipe Bollards, Yellow Safety Stanchions from Easy Rack.

Metal bollards are extremely durable protective barriers and can handle impacts from a variety of material handling devices such as pallet racks, forklifts, and scissor lifts. Traffic bollards can be used to protect any sensitive storage area, storage materials and racks, and restricted access points including parking and loading docks.

Easy Rack offers four main categories of metal and pipe bollards in both used and new condition. While many are easy to install yourself, others require professional installation that Easy Rack will implement on your behalf upon request.

What are the best pipe bollards to use both indoors and outdoors to protect work areas, racking and personnel?
Steel Safety Bollards are the best general model to use in and around a facility. Manufactured with welded steel construction, each unit is powder coated with safety yellow finish. Molded rubber bollard caps are removable on 4½" and 5½" diameter units to allow for concrete infill. Steel caps are welded on the 1¾" diameter units.

Each base plate measures 8" x 8", on the 4.5 and 5.5 units (5" x 5" on the 1¾" units), and includes four pre-drilled mounting holes. Easy rack supplies mounting kits and replacement bollard caps when needed.

Do you have anything other than yellow bollards?
Yes, Easy Rack carries chrome-plated bollards for decorative needs. Chrome is a highly attractive metal on anything, including a bollard. Chrome-plated bollards will improve the image of your facility and at the same time protect people and equipment. Every unit is made of steel and finished with attractive bright chrome plating for a clean fresh look. A black plastic bollard cap or cover is removable to fill the pipe with concrete for greater strength and stability.

What is the most effective bollard for safety in hazardous areas?
Spring-loaded metal bollards provide maximum safety and protection. They are designed to serve as a visual and audible warning to personnel. They feature a unique spring-loaded bollard design will bend and not break like rigid bollards. This works to prevent damage to the bollard and to any equipment that may hit it.

Spring-loaded metal bollards can also be ordered with optional light/siren. The light/siren unit includes sensitive switches that will activate a strobe light and warning siren when contacted. The unit is highly energy efficient and operates with two 9V batteries (not included). Installation is simple—the light/siren slides directly into the top of the pipe.

Each bollard is manufactured from steel and includes a powder coat safety yellow finish. Bollards measure 42" high with a 2½" O.D.

Do you have metal bollards that allow for wide loads to fit through docks and corridors?
Yes. We recommend offset bollards for these settings. The unique design features of base plate will not interfere with traffic. Easy Rack ships a removable rubber top cap and black/yellow safety tape with every order. The heavy-duty welded steel construction with a powder coat safety yellow finish is standard.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of safety gates, new & used pallet racks, material-handling equipment, commercial lighting, used pallet racks, and modular buildings installed nationwide. If you can not find what you are looking for call us toll free at 1-888-776-3720 and we will find it for you.
