Bollards
Elite Precast Concrete manufactures and supplies Concrete Bollards that are designed for vehicle deterrence, perimeter protection and public realm safety across the UK.
Engineered from high-strength precast concrete, our bollards provide robust, low-maintenance protection for commercial, industrial and infrastructure environments.
Suitable for both permanent and temporary installations, they offer a simple and effective solution for safeguarding assets and controlling vehicle access.
Standard Concrete Bollards are precision-cast from high-strength 50 N/mm² concrete and stand ready to withstand vehicle impacts, vandalism and forced entry attempts.
What is Bollards?
Concrete bollards are widely used for physical vehicle restriction and impact protection due to their strength, durability and long service life.
Unlike lightweight alternatives, precast concrete bollards provide dependable stability and resilience in demanding environments.
For defence and high-security environments, concrete bollards are used to control vehicle access, protect personnel and safeguard critical infrastructure. They act as a physical barrier to prevent unauthorised or hostile vehicle entry.

Key Features & Benefits
Precision-cast for consistent quality to withstand vehicle impacts, vandalism and forced entry attempts.
Why Choose Bollards?
Concrete bollards are commonly integrated into wider safety schemes to:
Prevent unauthorised vehicle access
Protect pedestrians and building frontages
Create defined exclusion zones
Support site security planning
Enhance perimeter control
Their solid construction and visible presence help reinforce controlled environments while maintaining practical access where required.
For military and defence planners, standard concrete bollards provide permanent perimeter fortification and high-impact resistance for persistent perimeter security. They are ideal for critical infrastructure such as military installations, airports and command centres.
Bollards help mitigate:
Vehicle-borne threats (VBIEDs)
Unauthorised vehicle access
Accidental vehicle incursions
They are a key component in layered security strategies and are commonly installed alongside blast walls and perimeter fencing, gates and access control systems, road blockers and barriers, and surveillance and monitoring systems.
Installation Overview
Depending on project requirements, concrete bollards can be:
Installed below ground for permanent security
Integrated with fencing, barriers or gates
Used as standalone vehicle deterrents

Are concrete bollards suitable for public spaces?
Yes. They are widely used in town centres, pedestrian areas and civic spaces to prevent unauthorised vehicle entry.
Can they prevent vehicle impact?
Concrete bollards provide significant resistance due to their mass and construction. The level of impact protection depends on installation method and configuration.
Do they require foundations?
Permanent installations typically require below-ground fixing. Surface-mounted Minion-Bollard options may be suitable for temporary applications.
Are they low maintenance?
Yes. Precast concrete bollards are highly durable and require minimal upkeep compared to alternative materials.
Do you supply nationwide?
Elite Precast Concrete supplies concrete bollards across the UK.

Yes. Our bollards are designed for high-security applications, making them suitable for military bases, defence facilities and other sensitive environments where vehicle mitigation and perimeter protection are essential.
Can bollards be integrated with other security systems?
Yes. Bollards are commonly installed alongside blast walls and perimeter fencing, gates and access control systems, road blockers and barriers, and surveillance and monitoring systems. This creates a multi-layered security approach for defence sites.
Are your bollards suitable for permanent and temporary installations?
Yes. Our bollards can be used in both permanent installations and temporary or semi-permanent deployments, depending on project requirements.
