Lift Assist Posts
Easy to Use
Rhino Lift Assist bollards are extremely easy to use. Simply unlock with a key, twist and effortlessly raise the bollards into place. Once in its upright position, twist the bollard again and push the lock down to secure. When unlocked, the gas spring supports the bollard as it gently lowers into the ground, cushioning at the base. Simply push the bollard into place, twist and lock to secure.
Maximum Protection
Due to trends that have led to an increasing need for products that offer maximum levels of protection, we have seen an increase in demand for our largest, heavy duty telescopic bollards.
As a result of this, we identified a need to introduce three new telescopic bollards featuring an internal lift mechanism to aid with manual handling. We've also added the gas lift mechanism to two of our largest products and have introduced a new size of telescopic bollard with a lift assist mechanism.
Reduces Lifting Weight
Lift Assist bollards feature an internal gas spring mechanism, which reduces the operating rate (i.e. the weight of the bollard as you lift and lower it) by around 70%. Manual lifting of heavy loads from ground level, if not carried out correctly, can contribute to neck, back and shoulder strain. The addition of the Rhino lift assist mechanism dramatically reduces the risk of any strain when lifting.

RT/SS5
- A round telescopic bollard manufactured from grade 316L (1.4401) stainless steel.
- The bollard rises to 710mm above ground and features a 101mm diameter.
- Supplied with a brushed satin finish, the exceptionally strong stainless steel outer is 2mm thick and is reinforced with a 90mm x 5mm steel internal post sleeve for added performance.
- A coordinating post (SSB01) is available on request.
- The RT SS5 features a 10 pin push button lock for added security.
RT SS5 Lift Assist
- The RT SS5 is available with an internal lift assist mechanism to significantly reduce the operating weight and aid manual handling.
- The bollard is fitted with an internal gas spring, which reduces the lifting weight to around one third of that of its standard equivalent.
- The Rhino gas spring is manufactured from stainless steel, which means that it will not rust or corrode like some steel equivalents, thus minimising ongoing maintenance costs.
RT R14 HD
- A round telescopic bollard manufactured from high strength mild steel to BS 1440 and galvanised to BS EN ISO 1461 (1999).
- The RT R14 HD has a height above ground of 850mm and diameter of 114mm.
- Features a 10 pin 'anti drill' push button lock for added security.
- The bollard is reinforced as standard with a 101 x 4mm internal post sleeve for added strength and security, making it the ideal choice for anti ram applications.
- A non reinforced option is also available for applications of lower risk (Ref: RT R14). A coordinating static post (Ref: RB 114) is available.
RT R14 HD Lift Assist
- The RT R14 HD is now available with a lift assist mechanism. This enables the specification of a telescopic bollard of significant size and operating weight, whilst reducing the lifting weight by approximately 70%, enabling effortless functionality.
- The internal gas spring reduces the operating weight from 26.5kg to around 7kg.
