Steel Bollard Designed for Strength

DAMO BOLLARD is manufactured to withstand the toughest collisions in commercial, industrial, and public environments. Unlike lightweight or plastic bollards, it is designed to withstand high-impact use. This safety bollard helps protect machinery, equipment, structures, and personnel from vehicle traffic in high-risk areas. Detailed specifications include:

  • 41" tall steel post (custom heights available)
  • 6" × 6" HSS steel post, 1/4" wall thickness
  • 10" × 10" × 3/8" baseplate
  • Four 5/8" × 5-1/2" mechanical screw-type anchors (included)
  • Oven-cured powder-coated finish or optional galvanization

Flexible Yet Durable Safety Bollard

DAMO BOLLARD is mechanically anchored rather than embedded in concrete, allowing for straightforward bollard installation by in-house maintenance teams or Damotech’s professional installers.

Because it uses screw-type anchors, DAMO BOLLARD can be removed when necessary for vehicule or maintenance access, repairs, or layout changes, and reinstalled at a different location—while still providing secure, long-term protection during operations.

High-Visibility Finishes Built to Perform

DAMO BOLLARD is available in high-visibility orange, yellow powder coating (other colors are available upon request), as well as in a galvanized steel finish that offers excellent corrosion and wear resistance in outdoor, high-humidity, or wash-down environments. Height and finish can be customized on demand to meet site-specific requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bollards

What is a bollard?

FAQ arrow

A bollard is a vertical protective post, designed to control vehicle traffic and protect people, equipment, and structures from accidental impacts. In industrial and warehouse environments, bollards are commonly installed to shield building columns, doors, rack aisles, pedestrian walkways, and other high-risk areas from forklifts and other vehicles. 

What makes DAMO BOLLARD different from standard bollards?

FAQ arrow

Unlike lightweight or plastic alternatives, DAMO BOLLARD is built for serious impact protection. Manufactured entirely from structural steel, it is engineered to withstand the severe impacts commonly encountered in commercial and industrial environments. The design features a 6″ × 6″ structural steel square post, an oversized 10″ × 10″ baseplate, and four 5/8″ Hilti screw-type anchors, ensuring exceptional stability and efficient transfer of impact energy to the concrete slab.

Is DAMO BOLLARD removable?

FAQ arrow
Yes. DAMO BOLLARD is mechanically anchored, not embedded in concrete. It can be removed when necessary for maintenance and vehicule access, repairs, or layout changes, while still providing secure, long-term protection during normal operations. This makes the DAMO BOLLARD a flexible option since it can be reinstalled in different locations as needs evolve.  

Who can install a DAMO BOLLARD?

FAQ arrow

DAMO BOLLARD can be installed by your internal maintenance crew or a chosen external provider, such as your dealer. It is designed for straightforward bollard installation on concrete or other flat surfaces using heavy-duty mechanical anchors.

Damotech also offers its own professional installation services when required. Although certification is not required, many companies prefer Damotech’s Orange Pros team for their installations due to the significant advantages:

  • Comprehensive project management, including logistics coordination
  • Consistent, high-quality installations by certified professionals
  • Fast, safe, and consistent installations 

Where should bollards be installed?

FAQ arrow

Bollards are typically installed in high-risk areas such as:

  • Rack aisles and end-of-row zones
  • Building columns and structural components
  • Doorways and porticoes
  • Pedestrian walkways
  • High-traffic vehicle paths
  • Loading docks and doors
  • Indoor & outdoor parking
  • Freezer or cold storage environments
  • Outdoor commercial areas such as garden centers and service yards

Strategic placement helps reduce damage, improve safety, and support efficiency in many types of industrial, commercial, or public environments.

Has an engineer tested your protection solutions, such as the DAMO BOLLARD?

FAQ arrow

Yes. All Damotech protection products, including our DAMO BOLLARD, are reviewed, tested, and approved by professional engineers before being added to our product line.

As a member of RMI, ProGMA, and MHI (see all memberships), Damotech aligns its products and engineering practices with recognized safety and design standards across the material handling industry.

What kind of paint is used for DAMO BOLLARD?

FAQ arrow

DAMO BOLLARD is powder coated. This means a high-quality finish that withstands the roughest and most challenging conditions. It provides a durable, attractive finish that reduces the risk of scratches, chipping, abrasions, corrosion, fading, and other forms of wear.

Can I purchase a galvanized version of DAMO BOLLARD?

FAQ arrow

Yes, you can. DAMO BOLLARD, as well as all our other products, can be galvanized—an additional fee applies.

Why is pricing not listed on your website?

FAQ arrow

We don’t skirt around the subject of pricing. We like to know what things cost, too.

Our rack protection and repair products are made-to-measure. Consequently, our pricing will factor in size, geographic location, volume, freight, and installation costs. A rack expert will most likely visit your warehouse to assess the damage and take the necessary measurements for a perfect product fit and a detailed quote containing no surprises.

Why are industrial bollards important in warehouses and commercial facilities?

FAQ arrow

Industrial bollards play a critical role in preventing costly damage, downtime, and safety incidents in high-traffic environments. In facilities where forklifts, pallet jacks, and other vehicles operate daily, an industrial impact bollard acts as a physical barrier that absorbs and redirects collision forces away from doors, racking, equipment, and building infrastructure.

A properly designed forklift protection bollard or warehouse safety bollard reduces repair costs and minimizes operational disruption. Unlike lightweight or decorative posts, a steel bollard for heavy traffic is impact-resistant and designed to withstand real-world warehouse conditions.

For commercial facilities, effective commercial bollard protection is not just about visibility—it’s about structural defense. Selecting the right bollard installation and protection solutions ensures impacts are transferred safely into the floor slab rather than into the protected asset.
