  • About Wooden Bollards

    Wooden bollards are a popular choice for environments where aesthetics and sustainability are key considerations. With their natural look, they look right at home in outdoor spaces like parks, gardens, rural areas and heritage sites. While just as strong as metal or plastic bollards, wooden bollards bring a more eco-friendly approach to controlling and protecting pedestrian and vehicle traffic.

    Whether you need to restrict access, delineate pathways, or just improve the look of an outdoor space, our range of wooden bollards can be personalised to meet your needs. Available in various wood types, finishes, and styles, they provide a more environmentally responsible choice without compromising on strength or functionality. 


    Hardwood Bollards

    Hardwood bollards, made from dense wood species like oak, are the more durable timber bollards we stock, boasting a strong, natural aesthetic. Resistant to weathering and wear, hardwood bollards look great in both rural and urban spaces. Their warm colour improves the ambiance of any landscape. They should be treated annually with stains or varnishes to extend their lifespan.

    Treated Softwood Bollards

    Softwood bollards provide a more affordable option compared to hardwood, without sacrificing durability. These bollards are often made from pine or larch and should be treated with preservatives like varnishes or oils to increase their resistance to rot and decay. Softwood bollards are well suited for areas with lower traffic, offering a budget-friendly solution.

    Oak Bollards

    A type of hardwood native to the UK, oak is by far our most popular type of hardwood bollard due to its strength, versatility, and attainability in the UK.

    What Makes a Good Timber Bollard?

    Consider these key factors when choosing the best wooden bollard for your space.

    Wood Type

    The right type of wood is important for the durability and appearance of your bollard. Hardwood options like oak are perfect for high-traffic or harsh weather environments thanks to their strength and natural resistance to decay. Softwoods are more economical but may need extra treatment to ensure longevity, especially in unsheltered or wet conditions.

    Finish, Treatment & Maintenance

    To increase the lifespan of your wooden bollard, consider those that have been treated or do so yourself. Consider annual treatments such as pressure treatment, varnishing, or staining which will protect the wood from environmental factors like moisture, UV rays, and insects, and will significantly extend the lifespan of your bollard. A well-treated bollard can last for years with minimal maintenance. Note that wooden bollards require more maintenance than their metal and recycled plastic counterparts.

    Sustainability

    If environmental impact is important, ensure that the wood used in your bollard is sourced from sustainable forests or certified by organisations like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). Recycled wood composite bollards offer a more eco-friendly option by repurposing waste materials into a durable product that mimics the look and feel of real wood.

    Aesthetics

    Wooden bollards are known for being some of the most aesthetically pleasing items of street furniture on the market. Warm, comfortable, welcoming, and aesthetically pleasing, these bollards will look at home in any environment, improving the aesthetics of a public space whether urban or rural.
