It's all about the Bollards...

Security is a constant worry for shop owners, and putting the right measures in place to prevent potential robbers gaining entry, or at the very least slow them down, is vital. Shutters and gates are common, but so are bollards, helping to deter and protect against ram raids and forced entry.

To this end, Professional Jeweller has cited concrete security bollards as their preferred method of preventing shops from being ram-raided.

Other methods considered included reinforced glass, CCTV cameras and elaborate fog systems; but it was the modest bollard that beat off the competition! Professional Jeweller said they were a pro-active and secure way to "protect the store against would-be robbers".

Here at Barriers Direct, we love our bollards, and we're so pleased to see them getting the appreciation they deserve! We've got all sorts, shapes and sizes; concrete bollards, telescopic bollards, security bollards and steel bollards, even unusual character formats!  Steel reinforced concrete bollards (pictured) seem to be THE choice in terms of shop security, and we're sure more and more stores will look into this as a tried and tested security measure.

With such a huge range, you're bound to find just what you need to help protect YOUR store against crime.
