Why it works

Secure, weatherproof and built to last

Surface or sub-surface fixing

Bolt the post onto existing paving, or set it into concrete - choose the fixing to suit your ground.

Secure mortise lock

A keyed-alike lock is available at no extra cost, or a compatible cylinder to match your existing keys.

Red reflective bands

Two of the three finishes carry red and white banding, keeping the post visible to drivers in low light.

Long-lasting galvanised steel

Hot-dip galvanised steel resists corrosion outdoors and is fully recyclable at end of life.

Guide plates protect the hinge

Lateral guide plates shield the hinge from side impact, extending the working life of the post.

COMMANDER Drop Down Frame Posts - Overview

The COMMANDER Drop Down Frame Post is a hinged security post for reserving and protecting car parking spaces. Made from galvanised steel, it locks upright to block a bay and folds flat to a low-profile 68mm to let a vehicle through, with a mortise cylinder lock as standard.

Frequently asked questions

How low does the post fold down?

When unlocked, the post folds flat to a 68mm drive-over height, low enough for most vehicles to pass over without catching the underside.

What sizes are available?

The post is supplied in two heights, 570mm or 900mm when raised, so you can match it to the space and the vehicles using it.

Can I fit it into an existing car park surface?

Yes. The surface-fix version bolts straight onto existing paving or concrete, or choose the sub-surface version to set the post into a concrete footing.

Does it come with a lock?

Yes, every post has a mortise cylinder lock as standard. A keyed-alike option is available at no extra cost, or we can supply a compatible cylinder to match keys you already hold.

What finishes are available?

Galvanised, galvanised with red reflective bands, or white with red reflective bands, so you can match the visibility level you need.

Will the post get damaged by vehicles driving over it?

The base is bevelled to prevent tyre damage when folded flat, and lateral guide plates protect the hinge from side impact.

What's the lead time on this post?

This post is dispatched in 1-2 working days.
