Overview

These three VEVOR bollards are steel posts with bright yellow powder coating and base plates for anchor-bolt fixing. They vary mainly by height and tube diameter, which affects visual impact, physical presence and how they’ll perform in different locations.

Higher, thicker posts suit vehicle diversion and robust protection near car parks or driveways. Lower or slimmer posts work well for pedestrian delineation, cycle lanes and areas where visual guidance is the priority rather than heavy impact resistance.

All models use Q235 steel and include base plates with anchor bolts. Differences to note are pipe wall thickness and the number of included bolts: those details determine durability and whether you’ll need heavy-duty fixings or ground preparation.

Before buying, double-check exact mounting requirements, local regulations for public spaces, and whether you need removable or fixed posts. If in doubt, measure the area you want to protect and decide whether visibility or physical barrier is the main objective.

#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 48-inch VEVOR safety bollard is the largest of the three and is built from Q235 steel with a yellow/black finish for high visibility. The post has a 5.5-inch (14 cm) outer diameter and a 3 mm pipe thickness, mounted on a 20 x 20 cm base plate and supplied with eight anchor bolts. It’s aimed at sites where visual prominence and a firmer physical barrier are required — for example, car park edges, driveways or areas needing clear vehicle separation. The larger diameter and weight make it less suitable where a subtle delineator is needed, but it’s a practical choice when stronger presence is the priority.

Key features

  • Height: 48 in / 122 cm
  • Pipe diameter: 5.5 in / 14 cm
  • Pipe thickness: 0.12 in / 3 mm
  • Base plate: 20 x 20 cm with 8 anchor bolts included
  • Material: Q235 steel with yellow/black finish
  • Weight: approx. 17 kg (pair supplied)

#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 choice — tall enough to be seen by drivers but slimmer and lighter than the 48-inch option. It’s constructed from Q235 steel with a 4.5-inch (11.4 cm) tube diameter and a 3 mm wall thickness, mounted on the same 20 x 20 cm base plate and supplied with eight anchor bolts. It’s well suited to standard car park delineation, pathway protection and general traffic-control tasks where a robust but not overbearing post is preferred.

Key features

  • Height: 36 in / 91 cm
  • Pipe diameter: 4.5 in / 11.4 cm
  • Pipe thickness: 0.12 in / 3 mm
  • Base plate: 20 x 20 cm with 8 anchor bolts included
  • Material: Q235 steel with yellow/black finish
  • Pair weight: approx. 10.4 kg

#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 measures 107 cm (about 42 in) in height with an 11.4 cm outer diameter and a thinner tube wall compared with the larger posts. It uses Q235 steel, a powder-coated yellow finish and a sealed steel base. The package typically comes as a set with four anchor bolts included. Its lower profile and lighter build make it well suited to pedestrian areas, cycle paths and sites where you need several posts to guide traffic without creating an overpowering barrier.

Key features

  • Height: 42 in / 107 cm
  • Tube diameter: 4.5 in / 11.4 cm
  • Tube thickness: 0.08 in / 2 mm
  • Base size: 20 x 20 cm with 4 anchor bolts included
  • Material: Q235 steel with powder-coated yellow finish
  • Net weight: approx. 8.5 kg (per set information)

Buying guide

Decide first what you need the bollard to do: purely visual separation, light-duty protection or deterring vehicle access. Height and diameter affect presence — taller and thicker posts give a stronger physical barrier. Check base-plate size and anchor bolt type against your surface (concrete, asphalt, paving). If you need removable posts or crash-rated protection, look for purpose-built systems; these VEVOR posts are general-purpose safety bollards. Finally, confirm weatherproof finish, local planning rules and whether extra fixings or concrete infill are recommended.

FAQs

Can these bollards be removed after installation?

These models are supplied with fixed base plates and anchor bolts for permanent fitting. If you need removable bollards choose a system designed for quick release or install them into sockets made for removable posts.

Are these bollards crash-rated?

No crash-rating information is provided with these general-purpose VEVOR posts. They’re suitable for visual protection and light-duty separation; for impact resistance you should look for certified crash-rated products.

Our recommended choice

For most situations that need a clear, sturdy barrier — vehicle delineation at car parks, driveways or loading bays — the 48-inch, 5.5-inch diameter VEVOR bollard offers the best combination of height and presence. It’s the most substantial of the three and suits sites where visibility and a more obvious physical deterrent are priorities.
