Analysis

When choosing the right bumper posts for an outdoor parking lot, it is important to first determine the specific needs for your crash protection. This includes:

  • Preventing damage to infrastructure: For protecting buildings, lighting, Mandatory protection of charging stations Robust steel bollards or stainless steel posts are ideal for other facilities.
  • Regulating traffic flows: Flexible or plastic bumps help guide vehicles without causing serious damage in collisions.
  • Limiting access: For sealing off areas from unauthorized access, fixed, removable or automatic retractable bollards are an appropriate choice.

  • Removable bumper posts: These can be removed temporarily and are often equipped with a locking system.
  • Automatic retractable bollards: Electrically or hydraulically operated, ideal for controlled access.
  • Reflective and illuminated bumper posts: Suitable for areas where increased visibility is needed, such as driveways and pedestrian areas.

Materials range from rugged steel for heavy-duty protection to flexible plastics for less intrusive delineations. Dimensions vary depending on function and required visibility.
