Bollards
Bollards and barrier posts have long since ceased to serve merely as a barrier system. Thieme’s high-quality street furniture enables urban spaces to be designed in a functional and creative way. Whether as a timeless barrier or a modern parking barrier – retractable bollards, folding bollards and chain links lend locations both charm and security. Special utility bollards with connections for electricity and water seamlessly integrate practical infrastructure into pedestrian zones, squares and public areas.
Bollards and barrier posts – Versatile solutions
Bollards and barrier posts are indispensable components of street furniture. Not only do they provide a clear demarcation of traffic areas, but they also make a significant contribution to the safety and organisation of public spaces. Thieme offers a wide range of bollards and barrier posts that are specifically tailored to the requirements of cities and local authorities. The various categories of bollards from the Thieme range are presented below.
Steel bollards – Robust barrier solutions for urban environments
Steel bollards are characterised by their extreme durability and resilience. They are ideal for high-traffic areas where a permanent and stable barrier is required. Thieme’s bollards are made from high-quality, hot-dip galvanised steel and are available in both classic and modern designs. They offer optimum protection and, thanks to their understated elegance, can be integrated into almost any urban landscape.
Cast iron bollards – classic design meets durability
Thieme’s cast iron bollards combine tradition with functionality. These bollards are made from solid cast iron and are characterised by their high stability and a distinctive, historic-looking design. Cast iron bollards are particularly well suited for use in old towns or historic districts, where they blend harmoniously into the existing streetscape whilst providing effective barrier protection.
Wooden bollards – natural elegance for outdoor spaces
Wooden bollards are the perfect choice for urban areas where a natural aesthetic is desired. These wooden bollards blend harmoniously into green spaces, parks or nature-oriented neighbourhoods, providing a visually appealing yet effective barrier. Thieme uses high-quality hardwood that is weather-resistant and guarantees a long service life.
Tilting posts – Flexible barriers that are easy to use
Thieme offers practical tilting posts for areas where temporary barriers are required. These posts can be easily tilted down and raised again as required, making them a flexible solution for driveways, access routes or event areas. Tilting bollards are made from robust materials and offer ease of use as well as high durability.
Push-button bollards – State-of-the-art technology for controlled access
Push-button bollards represent a technical innovation for barriers in urban areas. They can be raised or lowered at the touch of a button, thus enabling flexible control of access to specific areas. These bollards are ideal for temporary access restrictions, for example in pedestrian zones or at events. Thieme offers push-button bollards made from durable materials that meet the highest safety standards. These bollards are secured using padlocks provided by the client.
Special bollards – bespoke solutions for specific requirements
Thieme also offers special bollards that have been specifically developed for particular applications. These bollards are characterised by bespoke functions and designs to meet specific requirements in towns and local authorities. Whether as a decorative feature or for specific protective measures – Thieme’s special bollards are available in many variants and offer bespoke solutions for various urban applications.
Bollards with a predetermined breaking point – A cost-effective solution
Bollards with a predetermined breaking point offer a decisive advantage when it comes to reducing repair costs. If a break occurs at the defined predetermined breaking point, only the affected bolt needs to be replaced, without the need for expensive and time-consuming civil engineering work. Thieme supplies such bollards in robust designs that guarantee full stability during normal operation but yield in a controlled manner in the event of damage, enabling quick and cost-effective repairs.
