Steel Bollards
Bollard Installation for Enhanced Safety and Security
-
At QC Construction , we specialize in the expert installation of steel bollards to enhance safety and security across diverse environments. Whether it’s safeguarding pedestrian walkways, storefronts, or public spaces, our meticulous approach ensures optimal protection. Here’s how we handle bollard installations:
-
Safety Precautions and Site Preparation:
-
Before any installation, safety takes precedence. Our team dons protective gear—gloves, goggles, and hard hats—as we assess the site.
-
We meticulously clear the area, removing obstacles and ensuring no utility lines are at risk during excavation. Calling 811 or local utility providers to mark off lines is standard practice.
-
-
Selecting the Right Bollards:
-
We consider pipe nominal size—a critical factor affecting bollard strength and durability. Larger pipe sizes offer robust protection against impacts.
-
Steel grade matters too. Different grades offer varying corrosion resistance and strength. Our experts guide you in choosing the ideal steel grade for your specific needs.

Installation Process:

The sleeve, flush with the finish grade, is secured in place with concrete.

These are permanently embedded in the ground, raising and lowering as needed.

Ideal for parks, maintenance zones, and areas requiring flexibility.

Fixed Bollards:
