To operate the product you simply turn the key in the lock which is located in the base flange. Once unlocked, the bollard automatically raises in part due to a pneumatic mechanism within the inner tube of the bollard. The pneumatic mechanism helps to counter act the weight of the product when you lift the bollard into the ‘up’ position to secure the product in place. To retract the product, you turn the key in the base flange and the bollard will slowly start to retract into the ground, ready to be completely lowered by gently pushing the remaining height into the ground by hand.

Pneumatic automatic retractable bollards provide the highest level of security and are designed for repetitive cycles and are ideal for high level traffic control such as parking lots, access control gates, commercial building entrances, or military bases. These bollards can operate with most existing access control systems and are manufactured completely from stainless steel to avoid corrosion from harsh weather environments.

Pneumatically driven automatic bollards can be integrated with any access control option, including a key system, guard operated, proximity card, or any other system or software. The system can be geared for both high operation cycles and minimal use. These bollards are manufactured from Type 304 stainless steel for durability, weather-resistance, and aesthetics.
