Bollards, Bike Racks, Trolley Bays & General Metalworks – Product Overview

Bright Balustrading designs and fabricates a robust range of bollards, bike racks, trolley bay rails, and other general metalwork systems. These products are essential components in managing pedestrian and vehicular movement, protecting infrastructure, securing buildings, and improving public amenities in retail, transport, commercial, residential, and civic environments.

All systems are made to order, tailored to site-specific needs, and manufactured using high-quality materials including stainless steel, galvanised or powder coated steel, and aluminium. Our custom fabrication capabilities allow us to provide both practical and architectural-grade solutions — from asset protection bollards to bespoke bike racks and smart-integrated traffic control posts.

Product Types Offered

• Custom Bike Racks
  Fabricated to suit project-specific layouts and branding requirements, including wall-mounted or ground-fixed styles. Suitable for public parks, residential complexes, schools, and commercial developments. Options include powdercoated, stainless steel, or hot-dip galvanised finishes.
• Custom Bollards with Security Access Panel Integration
  Designed to house keypads, swipe access, intercoms, or gate automation systems. Common at vehicle entry points, loading docks, or building entries. Engineered for visibility, accessibility, and tamper resistance. Requires coordination with electrical and security contractors.
• Removable Bollards (Sleeve or Twist-Lock Types)
  Allow temporary access or reconfiguration of space. Lockable sleeves or twist-in-place models offer secure installation while maintaining flexibility for maintenance or deliveries.
• Baseplate Fixed Bollards
  Surface-mounted bollards ideal for concrete or slab fixing. Commonly used in retail centres, industrial sites, carparks, and pedestrian zones.
• Security-Rated Bollards
  Engineered to withstand vehicle impact forces for perimeter defence or high-security zones. Constructed with reinforced internal cores, footing systems, and optional PAS or IWA compliance where required.
• Custom Trolley Bays and Rails
  Designed for retail or transport precincts, our trolley bays offer defined collection zones with rails fabricated from steel or aluminium tube. Optional signage, barriers, and bump rails included. Engineered for safety, visual consistency, and durability in high-use environments.

Compliance & Standards

All metalwork items are designed and installed in line with relevant Australian codes and guidelines, including:

• NCC/BCA 2022 – Section D (barriers, accessways, and impact protection)
• AS/NZS 1170.1 & 1170.2 – Structural Design Actions (including imposed loads and impact forces)
• AS/NZS 2890.1 – Off-street parking and access facilities (bike rack layout and clearance)
• AS2890.3 – Bicycle parking requirements
• AS1657 – Where platforms, rails or general access are required
• PAS 68 / IWA 14-1 (International standards for vehicle impact-rated bollards, where applicable)
