Little Island Bollard – a concrete barrier element for pedestrian zones

Little Island Bollard is a rounded, stone-like concrete element that restricts traffic, organises public space and protects pedestrian zones. It belongs to the Little Islands family – rounded concrete mounds with no sharp edges – so it is also suitable for playgrounds and school grounds. The element is mound-shaped, with a parabolic cross-section and a rounded base; it is made from through-coloured high-performance self-compacting concrete (HPC) whose surface is etched to expose fine 1–12 mm white, black and grey granite chips, waterproofed and coated with an anti-graffiti finish. The Forklift version has transverse openings, so it can be moved and placed with a forklift without slings.

Where it fits

Pedestrian streets and squares, restricting vehicle access at public buildings, schools and shopping centres, and park approaches. The massive element stops vehicles while looking like natural landscape boulders.

Tip

If you plan to reposition the elements (e.g. during events), choose the Forklift version – it is easy to lift with a forklift. For more compact access control, the rectangular Lancer Bollard is a good fit.

Concrete or metal bollard – which should I choose?

Concrete bollards are heavy, so they are usually simply placed in position, and the stone chip finish goes well with concrete benches, planters and paving blocks. Metal bollards are slimmer, suit narrower spaces and are fixed to the base. Choose according to the space available and the style of other outdoor furniture.

Does a concrete bollard need to be fixed?

Usually not – concrete bollards stand stably thanks to their weight and are hard to move by hand. It is enough to place them on a level, firm base. The exact weight of each model is stated in the product's technical data.

How is a metal bollard installed?

Depending on the model, a metal bollard can be extended and set in concrete, bolted to the paving with a flange, or mounted with a flange under the paving. In newly laid paving, the set-in-concrete version is the most reliable. If the surface is already in place and you do not want to break it up, choose a bolt-down bollard.

What height bollard should I choose?

Low bollards suit the edges of lawns and flower beds – they mark the boundary without dominating the surroundings. Taller bollards are more visible to drivers and do not disappear in a snowdrift. At crossings and junctions, choose a height at which the bollard does not obscure children and traffic signs.

How far apart should bollards be placed?

Choose the gaps so that pedestrians, pushchairs and wheelchairs can pass through comfortably, but a car cannot enter. It is worth agreeing the exact distances with the site project or the municipality. If needed, the bollards can be linked with a chain.

Are the bollards visible in the dark?

Some metal bollards have a cap with a reflective coating that shines in headlights and shows where the boundary is. A coloured cap can also highlight the purpose of the zone. This is especially useful near schools, crossings and car parks.

Can bollards be linked with a chain?

Yes, chain loops can be ordered for metal bollards on request. This creates a temporary or permanent barrier, for example to block a driveway. Specify whether you need loops when ordering.

Do you deliver and install bollards?

Yes, we deliver and install throughout Lithuania – contact us on +370 652 32015, info@viskasmiestui.lt. We will choose the installation method depending on whether the paving is already laid or is still being laid.
