Driveway Bollards: Guidelines & Best Practice
Before installing a driveway bollard, it’s important to understand what’s legally permitted in the UK.
Private property?
If the bollard is installed on your own driveway and doesn’t affect public footpaths or roads, no planning permission is usually required.
Shared access or communal driveways?
In this case, written consent from other users is essential. For listed buildings or conservation areas, speak to your local council.
Top tips:
- Install the bollard at least 1m from the pavement edge
- Avoid obstructing sight lines for drivers
- Follow the manufacturer’s safety and installation guidelines

Absolutely. They’re a low-maintenance, high-impact way to improve home security, prevent unauthorised access, and add long-term value to your property.
Yes, if it’s your private property, you can usually install one without needing permission. Just ensure it’s placed safely and legally.
They act as an effective visual and physical deterrent. Most vehicle thefts are opportunistic, and a driveway bollard immediately signals that the vehicle is not an easy target.
Costs vary significantly based on the type, material, and mechanism. Simple fixed steel posts start at the lower end of the scale, while telescopic and automatic bollards represent a greater investment due to their complex mechanisms and high security rating.

This difference typically comes down to convenience versus cost. Both types secure your driveway and retract into the ground when not in use, but they operate differently:
- Retractable (Telescopic): These require manual effort. You unlock the post with a key and physically lift it up or push it down into its sleeve. They are more cost-effective and require minimal maintenance, making them ideal for driveways that are secured less frequently.
- Automatic (Electric): These operate via remote control, smartphone app, or keypad. They are the most convenient option for busy households or commercial properties with frequent access. While they are a greater investment, they target searches for “electric” and “automatic driveway bollards” and offer hands-free security.
