How bollards protect a daycare
A daycare concentrates the two things you least want to mix: small children on foot and parents in a hurry in vehicles. The drop-off loop is busiest in the two windows either side of the working day, and that is when the risk is highest.

Protect Children, Play Areas & Drop-Off Zones
Security Bollard Direct supplies and installs safety bollards for daycares and childcare centres throughout the Greater Toronto Area, separating children on foot from vehicle movement.
Strong protection where it matters most
Our commercial bollards can be installed around:
- The path children walk between car and door
- Fenced play area edges next to parking
- Entrance doors and the vestibule
- Drop-off loop kerbs and waiting areas
- Strollers and waiting parents at the frontage
- Utility and mechanical equipment within reach of the loop
Why daycares need bollards
Even a low-speed vehicle impact can cause significant damage. A professionally planned installation can help:
- Vehicles are physically held back from the walking route
- Parents read the intended route without needing signage explained
- A licensing or insurance reviewer sees a considered layout
- The fence line stops absorbing bumper contact
Drop-Off Zone Protection Bollards
The drop-off loop concentrates the two things you least want to mix: small children on foot and parents in a hurry in vehicles. It is busiest in the two short windows either side of the working day, and that is when the risk is highest.
Bollards along the walking route hold vehicles back from the path between car and door, and make the intended route obvious to a driver without anyone having to explain the signage.

Product capability
Be honest about what a bollard is for
These are protective and deterrent products, positioned to separate people from vehicle movement. They are not crash-rated barriers. If your licensing requirement calls for certified performance, we will say so and refer you to a rated manufacturer.
