Overview
These three safety bollards are all steel posts from Vevor UK, offered in slightly different heights, tube diameters and base/anchor bolt arrangements. They share Q235 steel construction and yellow/black high-visibility finishes but suit different protection needs — from light-duty vehicle guidance to heavier impact resistance.
Height and tube thickness are the most important choices here: taller, thicker posts give more visible and robust protection for driveways, entrances and car parks, while shorter or thinner posts can be a better fit on pedestrian walkways or where sightlines are low.
All models arrive as bolt-down posts with predrilled base plates and anchor bolts included, so you’ll need to check your substrate and drill the correct holes. Powder-coated finishes or plain paint vary by model and affect corrosion resistance over time.
Use this guide to compare visibility, mounting footprint, weight and suitable use-cases so you can pick the bollard that fits your site risk and maintenance plan.

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
The 48-inch VEVOR bollard is the tallest and heaviest of the three options here, using Q235 steel with a 5.5-inch (approx. 14 cm) outer diameter tube. Its larger tube diameter and heavier weight make it better suited to locations where you want both strong visual presence and a firmer deterrent to vehicle intrusion. Supplied with an oversized base plate and eight anchor bolts, it’s intended as a bolt-down solution for concrete or similarly strong substrates. The alternating yellow and black finish improves daytime visibility while the thicker pipe wall improves stiffness and resistance to accidental knocks. As with any fixed post, correct installation and substrate preparation are essential for long-term performance.
Key features
- Height: 48 in / 122 cm
- Tube diameter: 5.5 in / 14 cm
- Material: Q235 steel, 3 mm pipe thickness
- Base plate size: 20 x 20 cm with 8 anchor bolts included
- High-visibility yellow and black finish
- Weight: approx. 17 kg per unit (pair set specified)
#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 bollard is a practical middle-ground option. With a 4.5-inch (approx. 11.4 cm) tube diameter and 3 mm pipe thickness it gives good rigidity without the bulk of the 48-inch model. It’s supplied with a 20 x 20 cm base plate and eight anchor bolts for secure installation to firm substrates. This size works well where you need a visible physical barrier that isn’t overbearing — for parking bays, loading areas and residential entrances. The yellow and black finish helps visibility and the Q235 steel construction provides a solid, serviceable life when correctly installed and maintained.
Key features
- Height: 36 in / 91 cm
- Tube diameter: 4.5 in / 11.4 cm
- Pipe thickness: 3 mm (Q235 steel)
- Base plate: 20 x 20 cm with 8 anchor bolts included
- Yellow and black high-visibility finish
- Net weight: approx. 10.4 kg per unit
#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 model is supplied as a set with a 107 cm (42 in) height and an 11.4 cm tube diameter. It’s a lighter-weight option intended for general traffic control and parking delineation rather than heavy impact resistance. The powder-coated yellow finish helps with corrosion protection and daytime visibility, and the package includes four anchor bolts per set. With a base plate thickness of 5 mm this post is straightforward to bolt down to concrete. This is a sensible option where budget and basic protection are the priorities, but don’t expect the same rigidity or deterrence as thicker-walled, larger-diameter posts.
Key features
- Height: 107 cm / 42 in
- Tube diameter: 11.4 cm / 4.5 in
- Tube thickness: 2 mm, base plate thickness: 5 mm
- Material: Q235 steel with powder-coated finish
- Includes mounting anchor bolts (4 pieces per set)
- Net weight: approx. 8.5 kg per unit
Buying guide
Think about three things first: the level of vehicle protection required, where the base plates will be fixed (concrete, tarmac, paving) and how visible you need the posts to be. Choose thicker-walled, larger-diameter and taller posts for vehicle-impact resistance; choose lower profiles where pedestrian flow or sightlines are more important. Check anchor bolt type and number, base plate dimensions and whether a powder coat or thicker paint finish is specified for outdoor corrosion resistance. Finally, confirm the mounting kit and any local regulations for fixed street furniture.
FAQs
Do these bollards come with anchor bolts?
Yes — each product lists included anchor bolts. Check the number supplied (some sets include four, others eight) and ensure they suit your mounting substrate and load requirements.
Can I paint or add reflectors to these posts?
You can add reflective tape or paint, but choose materials rated for exterior use. If corrosion resistance is a priority, consider additional coatings designed for steel.
Our recommended choice
For a balance of visibility and physical presence the 48-inch, 5.5-inch diameter VEVOR bollard is the best starting point for car parks and site entrances. If you need slightly less height or a more economical set, the 36-inch or 42-inch options are practical alternatives depending on your surface and protection goals.
