The type 193 CIS Street Furniture kerb protection bollards in Tower Hamlets are all in perfect condition. To my knowledge none have been overturned or damaged since we started using them in the mid 90′s. I much prefer then to the old bell style bollards which have failed in the past by being overturned, lifting the footway/kerb with them.

I recently used one at a location which suffered from vehicle over-run problems. The first normal cast iron bollard was smashed to pieces within 24hrs, then an extremely heavy, very deep antique bollard was used (it was a conservation area) and this was also knocked over (yet another 24 hours). Finally I sought permission off my manager to place a kerb safety bollard and this has remained in place since January 2006 and the footway has suffered no further over-run damage.

I cannot recommend them highly enough. Try one, you will not be disappointed.

The Waterfront Signage – Sovereign Harbour, Eastbourne.

Right from the very first telephone call to the point of after-installation call, checking everything was OK, I have been dealt with by professional people who obviously take a pride in what they do and feel the need to help the customer. What a refreshing change!

The signs themselves are superb. They look very smart and have stood up to the severe weather we experienced this winter with no problems, unlike several of the other large signs around the site made by others. I shall certainly be in touch again when I have a future requirement.
