The Challenges Architects & Engineers Face with Bollards
Despite their importance, bollards and barriers are often under-supported in the early design phase. Many standard catalogs don’t offer the flexibility required to meet your specific design intent, and generic options often fall short in one or more key areas:
Made overseas and lacking US stock
Lack of architectural finish or form
Limited material and coating options
Incompatibility with your plan’s spatial layout
No guidance on installation feasibility
No real-world support when questions arise during construction
And perhaps the biggest issue of all: you can design the perfect solution—only for the GC or procurement team to find out it can’t be sourced or fabricated affordably, on time, or to spec.
