Bollards are the concrete barriers or posts used to enhance safety features around parking lots and around facilities. You’ve probably seen them before even if you don’t recognize the name. You'll easily see them at drive thru restaurants, car washes, fire stations, convenience stores, banks, airports, universities and more.

A bollard cover is a plastic cover that is placed over the bollard to eliminate the rusted, chipped look of exposed bollards. They are eye catching and can come in a diverse set of colors or be customized with a company’s logo. Designed to last and hold up through time and weather, bollard covers are also called post sleeves, post covers and pole covers.

Where else are bollard covers used?

Gas Stations: Gas pumps are often protected from vehicles with the use of colorful bollard covers.

Pedestrian Walkways: A properly placed bollard cover alerts vehicles that pathways are intended for pedestrian use only. While a vehicle cannot get past the bollard cover, pedestrians are able to easily access the path.

Parks and Other Publics Areas: Bollard covers are also used to create an aesthetically pleasing look. Often, parks and other public areas will use decorative, ornamental bollards with a chain linking each bollard cover.

Banks: Bollard covers help vehicles avoid driving too close to ATMs. It also helps as an added safety feature to prevent vehicles from intentionally running into the bank or ATM.

Businesses: Customized bollard covers with logos draw attention to a business and protect the facility.

Handicap Parking Areas: Bollard covers can be used to designate handicap parking areas and ensure that other motorists are aware of the parking restrictions. A sign can even be attached to the bollard cover for added emphasis.

Drive Thurs: Often the drive thru area can be a tight squeeze at local fast food restaurants. Bollard covers help drivers navigate through the drive thru area without damaging the owner’s property or their own vehicle.
