Automatic Bollards — FAQs

Are hydraulic or electromechanical bollards better?
Hydraulic bollards suit high duty cycles and harsh environments; electromechanical options are great for moderate traffic and simpler servicing.
Do I need drainage or a sump pit?
Most in-ground units require drainage to prevent water ingress. We include trenching, conduits and sump design in our scope.
Can bollards integrate with our access control?
Yes — RFID, PIN, BLE/NFC, intercoms and ANPR are supported, plus traffic lights, photocells and loop detectors.
What maintenance is required?
Preventative servicing aligns to usage: hydraulic oil checks, seal inspections, controller firmware updates and safety device tests.
