Automatic Rising Bollards – Fast, Smart & Secure Vehicle Access Control
When your site demands high-security vehicle access control, our automatic rising bollards deliver a world-class solution. The Automatic Rising Bollards from Secure Bollards combine rapid operation, smart integration and robust construction—ideal for entrances at airports, government buildings, corporate campuses and infrastructure facilities. Designed with German engineering collaboration and proudly made in India, these bollards provide seamless access when required and secure barrier when access must be restricted.
What Are Automatic Rising Bollards?
Automatic rising bollards are motorised or hydraulic posts installed in the ground, which raise or lower automatically according to access control signals. They offer the flexibility of retracting for authorised vehicles while providing a solid barrier when raised. These systems are ideal for environments where full-time permanent barriers are not feasible, and dynamic control is essential.
Key Features & Benefits
- Rapid activation & retraction: Many systems achieve lift or descent in 2-6 seconds—ideal for high-traffic entrances.
- Smart control integration: Supports RFID, ANPR, loop detectors, building access systems and remote control, allowing seamless vehicle flow while maintaining security.
- High durability & construction quality: Built from heavy-duty materials (stainless steel/mild steel), weather-proof finishes, often crash-rated for security applications.
- Aesthetic compatibility: When lowered, the bollard is flush or retracted, preserving pedestrian zones and architectural aesthetics.
- Power failure resilience: Emergency lowering/manual override or UPS backup ensures access even during outages.
Typical Applications
Automatic rising bollards are suitable for:
Airport & seaport terminals where access control and barrier strength are critical.
Government, defence, and embassy entrances requiring hostile vehicle mitigation.
Corporate headquarters, data centres and commercial campuses with premium access requirements.
High-end residential communities, luxury hotels and retail zones where aesthetics matter.
Urban plazas and pedestrian zones where vehicle access must be controlled dynamically.

ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between automatic rising bollards and fixed bollards?
Fixed bollards are permanently installed and cannot retract; automatic rising bollards provide flexibility—raising/retracting when required—making them ideal for variable access zones.
Are these bollards crash-rated?
Yes—many automatic rising bollards are tested according to international standards such as PAS 68, IWA 14-1 and ASTM F2656.
How do they integrate with access control systems?
They can be connected to RFID, keypad, ANPR, loop detectors, remote panels and building management systems, enabling seamless authorised access and barrier activation.
What happens during power failure?
Most models include hydraulic or manual override lowering, plus optional UPS backup to ensure vehicle access in emergencies.
What maintenance is needed?
Regular cleaning of the sleeve area, periodic check of drive mechanism, controller diagnostics, and ensuring drainage in wet installations will ensure long life.
