Bollards are usually the last item on a Rangiora car park build, and the first thing anyone notices when they are missing. Group One New Zealand designs, manufactures and installs them, with crews travelling up from our Islington base in Christchurch, and Sydney Chappell started the New Zealand company in 2026. Waimakariri’s new District Plan unlocked land for up to 17,000 new houses across Rangiora, Kaiapoi, Woodend and Oxford, so plenty of the work up here goes into sites still being built. Send us the address and we will come and mark out the positions.
What we put in, and what each type is for
- Fixed in-ground bollards for the jobs where nothing should ever pass: a building corner, a switchboard, a gas meter, the end of a rack run.
- Surface-mount bollards bolted to an existing slab, for internal walkways, column protection and floors that cannot be dug into.
- Removable bollards that lift out of a flush ground socket, for the gap that opens a few times a year.
- Fold-down bollards that hinge at the base and lock upright, for an entrance that opens daily or weekly.
Finishes are galvanised for yards and working sites, powder-coated where the bollard fronts the public, and stainless steel where the entrance has to look sharp.

Placement and spacing are what make them work
A bollard in the wrong place is either an obstacle drivers clip every week or a decoration a vehicle drives straight past. Anyone who parks at Pak’nSave in Rangiora has walked through the result of getting it right: posts positioned to steer traffic and keep people out of its path.
Auckland Transport publishes the most useful New Zealand reference on spacing. Allow at least 1.8 metres of clearance between bollards and the kerb, and at least 1.2 metres between bollards where the run crosses an entranceway, so prams, wheelchairs and mobility scooters get through. Those are Auckland Transport’s figures rather than a Waimakariri District Council rule.
From there it comes down to your own site. We check the gap against the widest vehicle that has to pass and against the swept path it takes turning in, because a trailer tracks well inside the line the towing vehicle follows.
What happens on installation day
The site visit comes first: measure the run, agree the positions, mark them out. Before anything is cut, services are located and the boundary confirmed.
In-ground bollards then get a hole cored or dug past the base course into ground that will hold. The post is set plumb and concrete poured around it, usually inside it as well. Depth follows the diameter and height of the bollard and what the ground turns out to be. Surface-mount bollards skip the excavation and bolt through a base plate into the existing slab.
Last comes the surface. Asphalt is patched, concrete made good around the footing, and seal or pavers reinstated.

Supply and installation are two different purchases
Bollards can be bought and delivered without anyone leaving the office. What that gets you is steel on a pallet, with every decision that matters still open: where each post stands relative to the kerb and the traffic path, how wide the gaps are, whether the ground under the mark will hold a footing, how deep it has to go, and how the surface is closed up afterwards. Those decisions are made standing on the site, with the vehicles that use it in mind. The installation is the part that turns the product into protection.
Consents, boundaries and the neighbour
Waimakariri District Council advises that a resource consent is likely for any fence on a road boundary or an internal boundary, and nationally a building consent is not required for fences or hoardings up to 2.5 metres high. A boundary fence also sits under the Fencing Act 1978, which is why a fencing notice to your neighbour comes before the work rather than after.
Bollards are not fences, and inside your own boundary they are generally yours to place. The reason those rules still matter is that a good number of jobs sit right on the line: an entrance treatment, a frontage, a shared access. We flag it at the site visit and Waimakariri District Council confirms what applies at your address.

Highly Recommend Group 1 Linemarking!
We recently hired Group 1 Linemarking for a few of our residential strata projects, and the results exceeded our expectations. The team was punctual, professional, and clearly experienced. The line marking was crisp, precise, and done exactly to spec. Communication throughout the process was smooth, and they were flexible with scheduling, which made things a lot easier on our end. If you need reliable, high-quality line marking services, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Group 1. Great job!
Working with Syd and his team is always a pleasure
The quality of work is always to a high standard. The Group One team is always professional, they apply a high standard for safety ensuring their SWMS is tailored for the job and their equipment is serviced and well maintained. I highly recommend Group One and if you use them you won’t be disappointed.

Questions people ask
What does it cost to have bollards installed in Rangiora?
It is quoted per site, with no standard rate. The steel is predictable; the ground is not. Coring an existing slab, working around services and reinstating the surface afterwards are what move the price.
How deep do bollards need to go?
Past the base course and into ground that will carry the load. On new subdivisions where the ground has been built up and compacted recently, that can be different from what the plan suggests, which is one reason the depth is settled on site.
Can they be taken out later?
Removable and fold-down bollards are designed for it. A fixed in-ground bollard is not: taking one out means cutting the post and breaking out the footing, then patching the surface.
Do you make the bollards as well as install them?
Yes. Design, manufacture and installation are all ours, so the quote covers the whole job: setting out, locating services, the footing, the fixing and the surface going back the way it should.
How much notice do you need?
