Sentry Guard Post bollards offer warehouse flexibility

WAREHOUSE managers seeking simple ways to demarcate areas or direct traffic can now use a portable, versatile bollards, a re-designed traditional bollard for a wide range of both indoor and outdoor applications, said a statement from Sentry Protection Products.

The ultralight Sentry Guard Post is 48 inches (1,219mm), tapering from 5" x 5" (125 x 125 mm), with a 14" (355 mm) diameter round base. Each side of the post has a 2.5" x 20" (63 x 500 mm) inset available to place reflective tape or other signage. Watertight and hollow, Sentry Guard Post can be filled with ballast (sand or water) to increase stability.

It can also be attached with fasteners into a floor, dock or any other flat base. It can be staked to the ground if used away from pavement. The unit's removable top is designed to work with plastic chain for traffic control, said the company statement.

Said Sentry general manager Jim Ryan: "This is a good example of how seemingly small changes in design can make a product far more practical and versatile for a wide range of users.

"Lightweight for moving or storing, but with added ballast able to endure real world conditions in a wide range of settings where traffic is being redirected, areas are being marked off-bounds, pedestrians are guided along walkways, or similar uses," he said.

"This product provides function, without making the site look like a construction zone. Some of the available colours mimic the look of stone or metal, making this lightweight product appear much more permanent. In combination with heavy duty plastic chain, this product offers a solution that looks imposing, but will not harm people or scratch vehicles who come in contact with it," Mr Ryan said.
