S30 Safety Bollards
S30 Safety Bollards: Advanced Protection for High-Risk Areas
The term “S20” refers to a specific crash-test rating defined by the ASTM F3016 standard. An S20 rating signifies that the bollard can successfully stop a 5,000-pound vehicle traveling at 20 miles per hour. This level of protection is crucial for areas where pedestrian safety is a concern, such as storefronts, sidewalks, and public gathering spaces.
Understanding S30 Safety Bollards
The S30 crash rating signifies that these bollards meet ASTM F3016 standards and are engineered to stop a 5,000-pound vehicle traveling at 30 miles per hour. This certification makes them ideal for locations requiring higher levels of protection against accidental or intentional vehicle intrusions.

S30 vs. S20: What’s the Difference?
Both the S20 and S30 safety bollards provide essential protection against vehicle crashes, but the S30 model offers increased impact resistance due to its enhanced construction and reinforced materials.
S20 Safety Bollards
- Stops a 5,000-pound vehicle at 20 mph
- Moderate-risk areas (storefronts, sidewalks)
- Heavy-duty steel with standard reinforcements
- Surface mount and core drill options
- Small businesses, low-traffic commercial zones
S30 Safety Bollards
- Stops a 5,000-pound vehicle at 30 mph
- High-risk areas (public spaces, critical infrastructure)
- Reinforced steel with thicker impact-resistant design
- Core drill and deep-set foundation required
- High-foot-traffic areas, government buildings, high-risk zones
The Growing Need for Crash-Tested Safety Bollards
Vehicle-into-building crashes occur more often than many realize. According to the Storefront Safety Council, these incidents happen more than 100 times per day in the U.S., leading to thousands of injuries and fatalities each year. The damage extends beyond human risk—businesses suffer costly repairs, downtime, and legal liabilities. Implementing S30-rated safety bollards can significantly reduce these risks and provide an added layer of defense in vulnerable areas.
