Steel bollards made to your specification
Ontario Bollard Company is a custom metal fabrication company in Toronto that specializes in bollards for sites across Ontario. We fabricate steel pipe and structural bollards that protect storefronts, racking, gas meters, EV chargers, loading docks and pedestrians from vehicle and forklift impact. Each one is made to your post diameter, height, spacing and embedment, so the bollard suits your traffic and load conditions instead of a catalogue default.
We supply and install across the Greater Toronto Area and can ship across Canada. Call with your site, the problem you are trying to solve and a rough idea of the vehicles involved, and we will help you work out what makes sense.

How bollard sizing works
A bollard is only useful if it is sized for what will hit it. A light-duty post can keep cars from nosing into a storefront or a gas meter, but it will not stop a loaded forklift or a delivery truck. We discuss the vehicle, the likely speed and approach angle, and how much clearance you need, and then match pipe diameter, wall thickness and embedment depth. The aim is for the post to take the hit so the building does not.
Spacing matters as much as strength. Posts close enough to stop a vehicle must still leave pedestrians, strollers and wheelchairs room to pass, and loading zones need gaps for equipment. We work from your drawings and field measurements and coordinate around utilities, drains and the existing slab before cutting or coring.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy a custom bollard in Ontario?
Ontario Bollard Company fabricates custom steel bollards in Toronto and supplies and installs across the GTA. We can also ship across Canada. Call us with your site details.
Do you install bollards or only supply them?
Both. We supply and install across the GTA, and we can ship bollards for you or your contractor to install.
What is the difference between fixed and removable bollards?
Fixed bollards are embedded in the ground for permanent protection. Removable or collapsible posts sit in sleeves so you can clear the area for deliveries, events or emergency access.
What finish should I choose?
Hot-dip galvanizing is a strong choice for exterior sites and de-icing salt. Safety-yellow powder-coat improves visibility. We recommend a finish for your environment.
Can you protect EV chargers?
Yes. Posts are made to the size of the pedestal or cabinet and set so that a car pulling into the bay meets steel first.
Is Ontario Bollard Company licensed and insured?
Yes. We are licensed, insured and WSIB-covered, and our work carries a workmanship warranty.
Are your quotes free?
Yes. We assess the site for free and give free quotes. We are fully licensed and insured.
