The RetractaPost GL series comes with an incorporated lock within the bollard base. This is ideal for sites that do not need or want to fit their own lock. It also means that there is no lock to get lost if misplaced.
These parking posts are great for garage forecourts, car showrooms and shopping centres. They are discreet when in the down position and a formidable barrier when raised. Unlike removable bollards, they do not need a secondary position for storage when an area is “open”.
Available in 3 heights including this one at 900mm, 500mm and 745mm and various post diameters there are plenty of options to choose from.
If you do not require the built-in lock or would prefer to use your own lock you can see our standard RetracaPost range here.
The GL range works in very much the same way as the standard RetractaPost. To raise the post, you first need to lift the cover plate on the ground socket. The red keycap can then be lifted; this cap protects the integral lock from water ingress. The post can then be lifted to its full height and rotated by 45 to latch it in place. The lock is then used to secure it in this position.
To lower the post the reverse of the above process is used. It is important not to let the post “free fall” back down into the base as this can crack the foundations.
Allow 24 hours before using the post, further instructions are available in our download section on this page. It is recommended you read them in full before installing your posts.
There are three key finishes to choose from for your Retratrapost-GL system.
114mm as standard, Larger diameter posts can be used on sights where higher security is required or where it better suites the appearance of the site.
This reduces the amount of effort needed to lift the bollard out of the ground. This option is only available on larger bollards that have the weight to justify the extra mechanism.
