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.

If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
