Description
The Maxxiom Battery Bollard meets the requirements for mechanical protection of battery systems – the physical barrier that keeps a reversing car away from your energy storage. Designed for garages, parking areas and work zones in domestic and commercial settings, it is gloss white with a silver reflector, so it protects the investment without looking like industrial equipment.

Why Mechanical Protection Matters
Batteries live where cars moveGarages and carports are the natural home for a battery system – and also where vehicles reverse in every day. The two need separating.
Often a compliance requirementWhere a battery system is installed in a traffic area, mechanical protection is commonly required. Your installer will advise for your specific site.
Cheap insuranceA bollard costs a tiny fraction of the system it protects – and of the damage a slow reverse can do.
Visible, not uglyGloss white with a silver reflector: highly visible to a driver, unobtrusive in a modern garage.
Simple to installThree M8 masonry screws into a concrete slab. No specialist trade required.
Right for work zones tooThe same bollard suits commercial parking, high-traffic areas and work zones where plant moves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I actually need a bollard for my battery system?
It depends where the system is installed. Where a battery system sits in an area vehicles can reach – a garage, carport, parking area or work zone – mechanical protection is commonly required to prevent impact damage. Your licensed installer will confirm what your specific installation needs.
How many bollards do I need?
It depends on the layout, the approach angle of vehicles and the width of the system being protected. Many garage installations use two. Your installer can advise on placement for your site.
How is it fixed down?
Three M8 masonry screws through the 3-hole base into a concrete slab. Straightforward with a masonry drill.
Can I install it myself?
The bollard itself is a simple mechanical fixing. But whether it is required, and where it must be positioned, is part of the electrical installation – so confirm placement with your licensed installer first.
What size is it?
125 x 125 mm square, 900 mm tall, weighing 4 kg. It ships in a 135 x 135 x 910 mm carton.
Will it look out of place in a garage?
It is finished in gloss white with a silver reflector rather than industrial yellow – designed to sit alongside modern battery storage without dominating the space, while staying clearly visible to a driver.
Does it only suit Maxxiom batteries?
No. It provides mechanical protection for battery storage systems generally, in domestic or commercial environments.
Is it suitable outdoors?
It is a painted steel bollard designed for garages, parking areas and work zones. For exposed coastal or heavy-industrial outdoor use, talk to us about your environment.
Can it stop a car?
It is designed to provide mechanical protection against impact damage in normal traffic areas – a reversing vehicle, a trolley, plant movement. It is not an engineered crash barrier for high-speed impact.
Can I order several?
Yes – just tell us how many and where they are going. Request a quote.
