FlexPost® offers a flexible bollard/signpost solution that not only saves money by eliminating damage to the parking lot and customers’ vehicles but also makes installation a snap. In fact, most of the company’s customers have installed their FlexBollard-XL™ with Signpost in less than thirty minutes, with no special tools or bulky equipment needed.
Simply drill four holes and bolt down—all hardware, sign brackets, and installation instructions are included in the box. In the event that the parking lot needs to be reconfigured, simply take out the four bolts to remove the bollard. Then either replace the bolts in the empty holes or fill them in.
Compare this to the labor and costs involved in the installation of a concrete-encased core-drilled bollard, which involves heavy equipment, the mixing of concrete, several hours of labor, and oftentimes cordoning off the parking lot.
Core-drilled bollards have their place in protecting a storefront, utility boxes, gas station pumps, etc. However, because they do not flex, they are not the ideal solution for parking space signage—as damage can be caused to both the customer’s vehicle and the parking lot upon impact.
FlexPost’s heavy-duty XL base can be installed on an asphalt parking lot surface in four easy steps using standard tools. In addition to asphalt, FlexPost also offers XL mounting options for concrete, natural ground, or a high-strength adhesive for use in parking garages.
