Bunnings is one of the biggest names in DIY and hardware across Australia. With thousands of customers visiting each day, it's no surprise that vehicle and pedestrian safety is a major consideration. From tradies picking up supplies in utes and trucks to everyday customers navigating busy car parks, there are a lot of moving parts—which means a lot of potential hazards.
To help manage these risks, the team at TKO Bollards was called in to supply and install a set of heavy-duty bollards at one of Bunnings’ busy store locations.
Why Bollards Were Needed at Bunnings
Our client wanted to increase safety around the store’s main entrance and a particularly high-risk area—the gas bottle cages. These are both critical zones where vehicle access needs to be restricted without limiting foot traffic or operational efficiency.
After assessing the site, we recommended and installed seven square plate surface-mounted bollards, powder coated for durability and visibility. These bollards now serve as a physical barrier to help prevent accidental collisions and protect customers, staff, and assets from harm.
The Bollards We Installed
The bollards used for this project were:
-
Surface Mounted Bollards with square base plates for easy installation on concrete
-
Powder Coated Yellow for high visibility and corrosion resistance
-
Designed to be tough, compliant, and low-maintenance, ideal for commercial and retail environments
These bollards are not only functional—they also enhance the store’s safety compliance without disrupting the flow of vehicles or customers.
