A beautifully brushed stainless steel bollard to mount devices such as a card reader, door station, camera, intercom, keypad, entry/exit button, biometric reader, or any other access control device. Great for perimeter access applications for premium clients. Stainless steel pedestals are sought mainly for rust protection and beauty and this pedestal delivers without question. This pedestal is polished with a 180 grit #4 finish and tapered at the top for a highly attractive architectural design. Furthermore, no fasteners can be seen after installation; instead, this pedestal is mounted from the inside out using an access panel on the backside and a heavy duty .25" base plate on the inside to hold the bollard firmly into position regardless of the use and abuse it receives. This one-piece design secured properly against the cement allows it to pass our facewind testing protocol that requires our pedestals to survive sustained Category 5 hurricane force winds of 157 mph. This pedestal comes standard with the two cutouts shown but can be customized to accommodate a variety of access control devices.
