2-Part Breakaway Bollards.
Enhance safety while reducing impact damage.
Classic Architectural Group’s breakaway bollards are engineered to provide reliable protection while minimising damage to people, infrastructure, and underground utilities. It is a type of safety bollard with a 2-part structure: on impact, the top part breaks off, leaving the base and the concrete undamaged. Manufactured from heavy-duty galvanised steel, they combine strength with corrosion resistance and a sleek appearance for long-lasting performance in demanding outdoor environments.
Heavy duty safety bollards for parking areas and industrial sites.
From car parks and commercial developments to public access spaces, breakaway bollards deliver safety without restricting movement. They are a popular choice for industrial areas and are also used as car park bollards. Designed to lower the risk of injury and property damage, they provide a clean, professional finish that integrates seamlessly into modern projects.

What are Breakaway Bollards?
They are heavy-duty safety posts engineered to withstand vehicle collisions and heavy impacts. They lower the chance of injury to people and infrastructure. Unlike fixed bollards, these have a breakaway design which absorbs impact. In high-speed accidents, the innovative two-part system breaks upon impact, reducing the risk of damage to the concrete or base. The damaged section can then be replaced. They help prevent costly damage to pavements, underground utilities, and the surrounding infrastructure. Classic Architectural Group’s break away bollards combine safety and efficiency to protect your assets and optimise traffic control and flow.
Manufactured from heavy-duty galvanised steel, high impact breakaway bollards deliver long-lasting durability and safety. As with galvanised bollards, they are highly resistant to corrosion, even in harsh outdoor environments. With a clean, professional appearance, they integrate seamlessly into parking lots, commercial sites, and public spaces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call our team on 1300 244 377.
Where are breakaway bollards typically used?
Break away bollards are commonly used in high-traffic vehicle access areas that experience vehicle impacts, such as commercial and industrial sites. They are suitable for use in concrete or asphalt bases. Here are some examples:
- Indoor and outdoor car parks and commercial driveways to minimise damage to other vehicles or the car park structure
- Busy loading zones, warehouses, or factory floors, where people, infrastructure, and even machinery need to be protected from cars, slow-moving trucks and forklifts
- Airports, government buildings or utility sites to protect infrastructure and redirect vehicles
What makes breakaway bollards different from standard bollards?
Breakaway security bollards have a 2 part system and are designed to detach upon significant impact, preventing damage to concrete surfaces. They provide a controlled and cost-effective solution for traffic management and asset protection while allowing for replacement if impacted.
What are the dimensions and materials?
As a made-to-order product, the dimensions depend on your project specifications. They are manufactured from high-quality galvanised steel for long-term durability. For a custom order, get in touch with our team. We can help create a tailored product with the right specifications for your space.
How are breakaway bollards installed?
Breakaway bollards are installed exactly like cast-in bollards. Our installers drill into the concrete or asphalt and install the base. Once the base is set, the breakaway post is drilled in. Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct placement and high-quality performance.
How do you replace a damaged breakaway bollard?
After a collision, the remaining base system is inspected. If the base is not damaged, then only the post is replaced. Depending on the intensity or the impact, the base and substrate may get damaged. In this case, the whole bollard needs to be replaced.
How long is the lead time?
As breakaway bollards are a made-to-order product, production time is 12 weeks. Lead times vary depending on specifications and order volume. Our team will provide a clear timeframe when quoting the project, ensuring your project schedules are supported.
Are breakaway bollards sustainable?
Yes. Manufactured from recyclable steel, these bollards offer both durability and sustainability. Their replaceable design also reduces waste over the long term in case of a collision.
Can breakaway bollards be customised?
Absolutely. Classic offers a range of customisation options, including dimensions and sizes, ensuring your bollards are functional and suited to your design goals.
