Frequently Asked Questions

K12 crash rated bollards are designed for a higher vehicle impact rating than K8 bollards, making them suitable for projects requiring a higher level of Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) protection. Final bollard selection should be based on the project's threat assessment and required crash-test performance.
K12 crash rated bollards can be specified for high-security environments such as embassies, defence facilities, government sites, critical infrastructure and other locations where a high level of vehicle impact protection is required.
Yes. Automatic operation can be provided according to the selected K12 bollard configuration and project requirements. The operating system and control arrangement should be selected according to the specific application and site conditions.
Maintenance requirements depend on the selected bollard system, operating mechanism, usage frequency and site conditions. Routine inspection of structural, mechanical, electrical and operating components helps maintain reliable long-term operation.
