To protect the nish, keep bollards in packaging
unl exact moment of installaon.
Handle with care to avoid scratching or
damaging bollard surfaces.
Consider local soil condions before
proceeding with bollard installaon.
Bollards shown in the diagrams may not be the same model as the bollards shipped in this order. This does not aect the integrity of the installaon.
Before Installaon
STEP 1: Study the site plans and mark the intended
locaon of each bollard on the plan.
STEP 2: Always check for hazards such as water pipes,
gas lines, and underground wiring before digging.
STEP 3: Please consult your local Building Code
Department to determine the recommended depth
below the frost line for digging in your area. Choose a
minimum of this or 12", whichever is greater. This is the
total digging depth. The diameter of the hole should
extend to a minimum of ??? (not mentioned in product
drawing either...".
STEP 4: Center the auger on the installation mark and
bore a hole to the required depth and diameter.

Concrete Bollard Installaon New Concrete
Inspect the installaon. Abrasions should be
covered as soon as possible. For damage repair
or other servicing needs, please contact Reliance
Foundry’s sales department.
STEP 5: Ensure the area is properly formed to create a
perimeter that will hold wet concrete. Use a dirt tamper to
compact the soil below the intended surface.
Pour the Concrete
STEP 6: Mix the concrete. Check that the proper rao of
water and concrete mix is used—the concrete should have
a similar texture to moldable clay.
STEP 7: Fill the hole with concrete unl it is level with the
surface grade.
Secure the Bollard
STEP 8: Keep the bollard in its protecve packaging. When
ready to install, remove the bollard’s protecve packaging.
Note: It is recommended to bend the rebar slightly before
embedding in wet concrete.
STEP 9: Set the bollard over the site, ensuring that the
rebars are embedded in the concrete.
STEP 10: Hold a level against the side of the bollard and
ensure that it is plumb. Note: Once the concrete has cured,
there will be no way to make any adjustments.
STEP 11: Patch the surface around the bollard to make it
smooth with the exisng surface.
STEP 12: Allow the concrete to cure for a minimum of
2–3 days. Note: Moisture in the environment and cool
temperatures can signicantly slow the process.
