If you're looking to improve the aesthetics of your property while ensuring better safety and security, a bollard LED light can be a great solution.

In this blog, we'll explore our range of wooden bollards and discuss their features, benefits, and the simple installation process.

A Natural Way To Bring Style To Your Outdoor Space

At EasyMerchant, we aim to provide you with a natural and eco-friendly lighting solution that is both stylish and practical. Our driveway lighting bollards are crafted from natural timbers like Iroko Hardwood, Green Timber, and English Oak (wherever possible, wind-fallen to avoid unnecessary tree cutting). These materials can be recycled or allowed to decompose naturally once they've reached the end of their lifespan.

The wooden bollards in our range are treated with Danish oil to highlight the natural color and grain of the wood. Like any natural timber, they may develop cracks, twists, or warps over time, which adds unique character to each post.

You can customize any of these bollards with logos, directional arrows, or text if needed.

Once installed, maintenance is relatively simple:

Regularly wipe down the bollard surface with a soft cloth to remove dirt, debris, and cobwebs.
Regularly inspect the bollards for any signs of damage and repair or replace as necessary.
