Security bollards are among the best solutions to help protect special events, building entrances and more from vehicle attacks and accidents, security experts agree.
To stop such attacks, campus security professionals need to be cognizant of two different types of vehicle access points for these incidents to occur. The first location is primarily used by pedestrians but vehicles frequently need to pass through.
The other access points are those that are temporary. On a college or high school campus, traffic may need rerouting for football games and commencements. These areas still must allow entry of delivery trucks and certain other authorized vehicles.
Bollards are aesthetically pleasing and let pedestrians move between them in non-roadway applications. These systems operate individually or in groups of up to ten and are used for intermediate security applications.
Fixed-post bollards are available to secure the sides of roadways with the same crash rating and appearance as their moveable cousins.
The fixed bollard, which does not go up and down, provides significant blocking against threats that continue to challenge security directors.
For example, fixed bollards can keep vehicles on the other side of the campus perimeter. They let facility managers meet a long-standing challenge: how to easily install bollards on shallow substrates, including those that are not level or have turns. No longer must locations such as curves on hills, the upper levels of parking structures and other unprotected locales use unsightly “make-do” solutions to stop car bombers or wayward drivers.
