Bollards have become an essential part of almost all security and infrastructure safety plans today, while a lot more historic facilities are also deploying bollards to improve people movement and vehicle traffic. From simple waist-high fixed bollards to fully automatic retractable ones, bollards have evolved parallelly with the automobile industry.
They are widely used at facilities with a risk of vehicle damage, e.g.; banks, schools, government offices, museums, military buildings and corner buildings all should consider the installation of bollards.
With a wide range of physical security solutions, FAAC provides high-quality bollards for both pedestrian and vehicle traffic management, as well as impact-resistant crash bollards for critical facilities. FAAC is also known for its automatic bollards and other systems like gates, barriers, doors, parking and access control.
