Bank Bollard Applications
Banks and financial institutions rely on bollards for essential perimeter security and to manage the flow and vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Blockaides, Inc. is a leader in streetscape safety products, helping organizations in the financial sector secure their premises with high-quality bollards.
Why Banks and Financial Institutions Need Bollards
Bank security may include security cameras, access codes and other systems. Bollards can further safeguard your branches, offices and other locations by:
- Deter threats and unauthorized access: Crash-rated bollards for banks can safeguard entrances, drive-through lanes and ATMs.
- Enhancing premises security: Bollards control access to sensitive zones and guide traffic, minimizing drive-through accidents while allowing authorized vehicles entry.
- Maintaining a secure environment: Financial institutions have a duty of care to their employees and visitors. Bollards can help reduce the risk of unauthorized access, vehicle accidents and other dangers inside and outside bank facilities.
Types of Bollards for Banks and Financial Institutions
Banks, credit unions and other organizations need to protect against a range of threats. Blockaides, Inc. offers the following bollard types:
- Permanent fixed bollards: Durable and attractive, these are ideal for main entry points, ATMs and areas needing ongoing traffic control.
- Retractable bollards: For controlled vehicle access, such as delivery and cash-in-transit vehicles, these bollards can also work for emergency zones.
- High-impact crash-rated bollards: Engineered to withstand vehicle collisions, even at higher speeds, these bollards can be the right choice for high-threat areas, such as entrances.
Implementation and Maintenance
Before installing bollards, it’s important to check local building codes, utility requirements and regulations. You need to make sure that the drilling will not disrupt power or gas lines and will not exceed allowable depths. Installation must also follow all ADA and other relevant requirements.
Professional bollard installation can ensure full compliance. The team at Blockaides, Inc. can assess and prepare the site. To keep bollards in top shape, schedule routine inspections and gentle cleaning. Caps help prevent UV damage and extend the life of your bollard.
