The Westminster SB970CR Scimitar High Security Bollard has been tested in both stand-alone and multiple configuration enabling single or multi-use installations without compromising security. Constructed from high strength steel (galvanised and painted black) the Bollard stands 1,000mm above the road surface in the fully raised position with an outside diameter of 324mm (excluding optional outer sleeves).

The SB970CR has been designed to ensure that vehicle penetration during attack is kept well within the DoS/British minimum standard requirements for both U.S. and European manufactured vehicles. The heavy-duty top plate and Bollard cap are both removable to enable simple and efficient maintenance and serviceability.

Bollard in use
The Bollard sits in a steel frame which is prepared for ease and speed of installation with reinforcement connection points to tie into the outer foundation and access points for onward connection to ducting for hydraulic hoses and control cables.

The SB970CR has been successfully impact tested with a concrete foundation of just 2.25 cubic metres, it is necessary that the sizes used for testing are adhered to in order to be compliant with the relevant product's impact rating. A hydraulic actuator is used to raise the Bollard to its full height driven by a hydraulic power unit (HPU) with optional anti-burst valves to protect against system sabotage. The HPU contains the hydraulic and electronic control equipment in an externally rated lockable cabinet to be positioned locally to or remotely from the Bollard.
