Overview
These three VEVOR safety bollards are all Q235 steel posts finished in high-visibility yellow with black detailing. They’re intended to mark and protect traffic-sensitive areas and to form a physical barrier that helps control vehicle access and protect assets.
The main differences are straightforward: height, tube diameter and the number of anchor bolts supplied. Those differences affect visibility, how much impact they can resist and what foundation or fixing method you need.
Choose the taller, thicker post where you need maximum visibility and heavier-duty protection (for example close to vehicle routes and loading bays). Smaller-diameter or lower posts work well for lighter separation duties such as guiding pedestrians or protecting doorways.
All three arrive as bolt-down posts and need a suitable concrete base or sub-base and correct anchor bolts. Check local regulations and site conditions before installing, and factor in access for maintenance and any required reflectors or signage.

Detailed reviews
#1 VEVOR Safety Bollard, 48 Inch Height Bollard Post, 5.5 Inch Diameter Steel Pipe Safety Bollard Post, Yellow Steel Bollard, Steel Safety Bollard with 8 Anchor Bolts, Perfect for Traffic-Sensitive Area
This VEVOR pair of 48-inch steel bollards is aimed at sites that need clear, hard-to-miss protection. The posts use Q235 steel with a relatively thick tube wall and a baseplate intended for bolt-down fixing. The larger 5.5in (approximately 14cm) outer diameter gives a more substantial appearance and a firmer barrier against accidental collisions. They come finished in yellow with black bands for visibility and include the anchor bolts needed to secure them — though you should plan for a concrete foundation sized to match the baseplate. These are fixed posts rather than removable or hinged types, so think about access needs before installing.
Key features
- Height: 48 in (122 cm) for strong sightlines
- Tube diameter: 5.5 in (14 cm) for increased presence
- Material: Q235 steel with welded baseplate
- Sold as a 2‑piece set (each with baseplate)
- Includes 8 anchor bolts for bolt-down installation
- Finish: yellow with black bands for contrast
#2 VEVOR Safety Bollard, 36 Inch Height Bollard Post, 4.5 Inch Diameter Steel Pipe Safety Bollard Post, Yellow Steel Bollard, Steel Safety Bollard with 8 Anchor Bolts, Perfect for Traffic-Sensitive Area
The 36-inch VEVOR pair is a practical, middle-ground option. Slightly shorter and slimmer than the 48in model, these posts still provide clear visual separation and a firm physical deterrent without the bulk of the larger diameter post. They’re suited to shopfronts, pedestrian/vehicle interfaces and lighter-duty protection near doorways or walkways. As bolt-down posts they need a strong base and the eight anchor bolts included help with a straightforward installation. The finish is yellow with black accents to aid visibility in a variety of light conditions.
Key features
- Height: 36 in (91 cm) for compact visibility
- Tube diameter: 4.5 in (11.4 cm)
- Material: Q235 steel with welded baseplate
- Sold as a 2‑piece set and includes 8 anchor bolts
- Base size: 7.9 x 7.9 in (20 x 20 cm)
- Yellow and black finish for contrast
#3 VEVOR Safety Bollard 107 cm x 11.4 cm Safety Barrier Bollard 11.4 cm OD 107 cm Height Yellow Powder Coat Pipe Steel Safety Barrier with 4 Free Anchor Bolts for Traffic-Sensitive Area
This VEVOR 107cm bollard is a practical, slightly shorter alternative sold with a powder-coat finish. It uses Q235 steel with a tube diameter of about 4.5in (11.4cm) and comes with four anchor bolts. The listing emphasises the sealed steel base and a 5mm baseplate thickness, making it suitable for routine protection duties such as kerb protection, pedestrian zone separation or marking loading points. It’s lighter and easier to handle than the larger 48in option, and the powder coat helps resist corrosion; however, the tube wall is slightly thinner so it’s best used where extreme impact resistance isn’t a primary need.
Key features
- Height: 107 cm (42 in) for medium visibility
- Tube diameter: 4.5 in (11.4 cm) with 2 mm tube thickness
- Material: Q235 steel with powder-coat finish
- Baseplate thickness: 5 mm for secure fixing
- Includes 4 anchor bolts (single-piece set)
- Sealed steel base to reduce ingress
Buying guide
Pick a bollard by thinking about three things: visibility, protection level and installation. Visibility: taller posts (around 48in/122cm) are easier to spot from a distance and are better for vehicle areas. Protection level: thicker tubes and heavier steel will better resist impacts — if you’re protecting loading bays or vulnerable equipment, favour larger-diameter posts. Installation: bolt-down posts need a firm concrete base and the correct anchors; check how many bolts are supplied and whether the baseplate thickness matches your local conditions. Also consider whether you need removable or hinged posts for occasional vehicle access (these VEVOR posts are fixed bolt-down types). Finally, plan spacing and reflectors according to risk assessments and local guidance.
FAQs
Do these bollards come ready to fit with anchor bolts?
Each listing specifies included anchor bolts. The 48in and 36in models list eight anchor bolts (sold as two posts), while the 107cm/42in listing mentions four free anchor bolts for its single-piece set — always confirm contents on the retailer page before purchase.
Can these be used on asphalt or just concrete?
Bolt-down bollards need a solid base. Concrete is ideal; asphalt can work with the right anchor system and a suitable sub-base, but you should consult an installer and use anchors rated for the substrate.
Our recommended choice
For general site protection where visibility and a more robust presence matter, the taller 48-inch VEVOR bollard is the best starting point. It gives clearer sightlines and a sturdier-looking barrier for car parks and loading areas. For lighter duties or lower budgets, the 36-inch or 42-inch posts remain practical and easier to site.
