A bollard does one job: put something solid between a vehicle and the thing you cannot afford to have hit. Store front glazing, a dock door, a gas meter, an electrical panel, a pedestrian walkway. We supply fixed, removable, surface-mounted, stainless and decorative bollards for commercial properties across the GTA and Ontario.

Where it is used

Store front and glazing protection at retail, pharmacy and cannabis locations
Loading dock corners, overhead door tracks and dock aprons
Gas meters, electrical panels, transformers and fire risers
Parking garage ramps, pillar corners and curb entries
Pedestrian walkways, drop-off loops and building approaches
Drive-thru order points, patios and curbside pickup zones

Not sure which option fits?

Send a photo of the location and tell us what you are protecting. We will specify it and quote it within 24 hours, including the cheaper option if that is the right one.

Specifications

Options and technical data

Yellow-Black Steel Safety Bollard

The high-visibility workhorse. Steel pipe with a yellow and black banded finish, used wherever a bollard needs to be seen before it is hit. Highest unit counts in warehouse and industrial settings.

Specify height and diameter against the vehicle type you are protecting against. Forklift aisles and dock aprons usually take a shorter, heavier unit than a store front line.

Material	Carbon steel pipe
Finish	High-visibility yellow with black bands
Mounting	Surface mount on base plate, or embedded
Typical heights	36in / 42in / 48in above grade
Base plate	Pre-drilled for anchor bolts
Options	Reflective banding, protective cap, custom heights

Stainless Steel Bollard

Where the bollard is visible to customers and the finish matters. Corrosion resistant, low maintenance, and appropriate for store fronts, plazas, building entrances and public-facing frontages.

Material	Grade 304 stainless steel
Grade 316	Available on request for coastal or de-icing salt exposure
Finish	Satin / brushed stainless
Mounting	Surface mount on round base plate
Head styles	Flat, domed or angle-cut
Options	Reflective bands, custom heights

Removable Bollard

For access that has to be closed most of the time and open occasionally. Fire routes, service lanes, loading areas, patio seasons and curbside pickup zones.

Ground sleeves require a core drill and a drainage consideration. Confirm the mounting surface before ordering.

Material	Steel or stainless steel
Mounting	Ground sleeve, flush cap when removed
Locking	Padlock or keyed lock options
Finish	Powder coat, galvanized or stainless
Use case	Fire route access, seasonal patio, service vehicle entry

Decorative & Architectural Bollard

Where the site has a design standard to meet. Streetscape frontages, BIA improvements, campus entries and mixed-use developments.

Material	Steel, stainless or cast options
Finish	Powder coat to specified colour, or stainless
Mounting	Surface mount or embedded
Application	Streetscape, plaza, campus and public realm

Before you order

Choosing the right option

Fixed or removable?

Fixed unless something legitimately needs to drive through. Removable units cost more, need a sleeve set into the surface, and add a maintenance item. If access is required only once or twice a year, fixed with a planned removal is often cheaper over the life of the site.

What height do I need?

42in above grade is the common commercial standard: high enough to be seen over a hood, low enough not to obstruct sightlines. Warehouse and dock applications often use a shorter, heavier-wall unit. Tell us what you are protecting and from what, and we will specify it.

Concrete, asphalt or pavers?

This determines everything about mounting and price. Surface-mount base plates need sound concrete of adequate thickness. Asphalt and pavers usually need a different approach. If you are not sure, send a photo. We can usually tell.

Will it stop a truck?

Be careful with this question and be careful with anyone who answers it too quickly. Our bollards are protective and deterrent products for the applications described here. They are not crash-rated. If your project requires certified anti-ram performance to ASTM F2656 or IWA 14-1, we will say so and refer you to a rated manufacturer.
