Shug here. This morning I installed seven removable bollards at Fast Freddies Tyre Service in Healesville. The finished job puts a line of yellow bollards across the workshop frontage, with the option to remove the posts when vehicle access is needed.
A tyre workshop needs access for cars moving into and out of its service bays. That makes removable bollards a practical option where a permanent row of fixed posts would get in the way. This installation shows how a vehicle access point can have a physical barrier without permanently closing the driveway.
The Healesville installation
The project was completed at Fast Freddies Tyre Service on Hunter Road, Healesville. Seven removable bollards were installed, and the photos show the finished yellow posts along the paved frontage outside the workshop.
The wide views show the relationship between the bollards, the driveway and the roller-door service bays. Closer views show the lifting handles on the posts and their positions beside the drainage channel. The photographs show the completed installation on 24 October 2026.
Why choose removable bollards for a tyre workshop?
Removable bollards give a business a choice about when to restrict vehicle access. With the posts in place, they form a physical obstruction across the opening. When authorised access is required, the removable posts can be taken out and stored clear of the driveway.
That flexibility can suit tyre shops, automotive workshops and commercial premises where the same opening is used for deliveries, customer vehicles or workshop access. The right layout depends on how the particular site operates.
Planning bollards around everyday vehicle access
For a commercial bollard installation, the number of posts is only part of the decision. The access opening, vehicle movements and nearby features also need consideration. Before arranging a quote, it helps to have:
- Photos of the entrance and surrounding area.
- An approximate measurement of the opening to be controlled.
- Details of the vehicles that need access.
- A description of when the bollards will be removed and replaced.
- Information about the existing surface, drains and other nearby features.
These details give us a useful starting point for discussing a layout. A photograph alone does not establish the condition of the surface or what is underneath it, so installation requirements need to be assessed for the site.
