Hi all,

Just a general call out to see if anyone on SAU works in the Security Industry and would help me out in getting 1 or 2 security bollards for my workshop entry. Primarily it is to stop ram-raids etc, so they will have to be either retractable or removable.

Looking at getting units that are very sturdy; places online all don't have prices so I have no idea what I'm looking at paying - any help is appreciated!

Cheers

Stan

i got out of the business a long time ago, i had a few connections so i'll have a look around for them. but those ram thingos dont do shit unless you've got one on the inside too. if someone was to rock up with some bolt cutters or an oxy (it happens) they'll get those suckers off with no problem within 2 or so mins.

i've seen and heard of alot of places with just the two on the outside.

Ive heard security patrols are good ,say maybe twice or once a night a guards comes around to check the premises and also monitoring the place is also good,that way if there is an alarm the guard is more likely to show up before the police do u good even have a silent alarm in order to catch thieves,etc.

need any more backup call 0409360867 and say Rik sent you they should give u a good deal.

Stan,

Security Bollards are a good investment, as previously pointed out they dont stop the intruder but they are a great deterant.

Eg. 2 shops identically the same one with bollards, one without bollards it is highly probable that the theive would go for the ones without the bollards. Its a risk management process. Likelihood vs, Consequence.

The likelihood of the event happening is lessened by having the bollards and the consequence lessens as the time it would take for a theive to enter increases.

=Great investment by pyshical deterance.

Alarm monitoring is not expensive. If an alarm is set off a patrol car will respond and then there will be an extra cost for the service.

Theres a few other things I could suggest if your serious about risks within your business.

Cheers

bit late,but most safety supplies stores stock such items or can atleast get them in for you. there is a place called KLENALL out at castlereagh.

OR you could always make your own with some RHS and cement.

i can give you a hand.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
