Flexible guide posts that mark the lane and bend back.
Reflective PVC guide posts, dismountable flex posts and flexible bollards that mark lanes and keep clear areas, and spring back when a car hits them.

- PVC guide post height
- 800 mm
- Dismountable flex post, 100 mm wide
- 450 to 900 mm
- Flexible bollard heights
Nextage supplies and installs flexible guide posts and delineators in retail car parks across Australia: reflective PVC guide posts 1300 mm high, dismountable flex posts 800 mm high that unscrew for access, and flexible bollards 450 to 900 mm high. They mark lanes, keep clear areas and pedestrian edges, bend when a car hits them and stand back up, so they guide traffic without the damage a steel post would do.
The problem
- Painted lines alone get driven over, especially at night and in the rain.
- Steel posts used to mark a lane end up bent, and so do the cars that hit them.
- Keep clear areas and loading zones fill with parked cars.
What's included
- A site walk to set out each lane, edge and keep clear area
- Guide posts, flex posts or flexible bollards to suit each one
- Posts fixed into the surface, or on dismountable bases where access is needed
- Installation by induction ready crews
- Before and after photos of the car park
Public liability insurance: $20 million.
Types
Posts we fit
Each type is chosen for how often it gets hit and whether the route has to open.
PVC guide posts
1300 mm high, 100 mm wide flexible PVC with high intensity reflective panels. They bend and rebound after an impact.
Dismountable flex posts
800 mm high, 100 mm across, black with reflective bands, on a single central screw anchor. They unscrew for deliveries or maintenance.
Flexible bollards
Polyurethane or plastic posts 450, 750, 800 or 900 mm high, most with reflective tape.
T top bollards
A flexible post on a weighted bolt down base, for marking a lane or a queue.
Reflectors
Corner cube reflectors in a choice of colours, so the line reads at night.
Range
Sizes
Heights for each type. The site walk sets the spacing along a lane.
| Post | Size | Fixing |
|---|---|---|
| PVC guide post | 1300 mm high, 100 mm wide | Set into the ground or a base |
| Dismountable flex post | 800 mm high, 100 mm across | Central screw anchor, removable |
| Flexible polyurethane bollard | 900 mm high | Bolted down |
| Flexible knock down bollard | 800 mm high | Bolted down |
| Plastic flexible bollard | 450 or 750 mm high | Bolted down |
| T top bollard | On a 6 or 8 kg weighted base | Bolted down base |
How they work
Flexible, not fragile
A flexible post takes the hit and comes back. A steel one stops the car.
Where a car must be stopped, the answer is a steel bollard, not a flexible post.

Supply and install
Supplied, ordered and fitted for you.
No products to order, fixings to buy or trades to chase. One call, and it arrives fitted.
Tell us the site and roughly how many. We walk it and come back with a measured quote.
We measure
A site walk sets what goes where, and how many.
We order
The right product, size and quantity, delivered to site.
We organise
Access, inductions and timing around your trading hours.
We install and photograph
Fitted by our crews, with before and after photos when it is done.
Often fitted in the same visit
A good fit
- Lane separation in car park aisles and drive thru lanes
- Keep clear areas, loading zones and fire access routes
- Pedestrian edges where a steel bollard is more than the risk needs
- One car park, or the same posts across a whole fleet
Not a fit
- Stopping a car before it reaches glass or people, which needs a steel bollard
- Public roads, which the road authority controls
FAQ
About flexible guide posts
What is a flexible guide post?
A reflective post, usually PVC or polyurethane, that marks a lane, an edge or a keep clear area and bends back upright when a car hits it. Ours is 1300 mm high and 100 mm wide.
Guide post or bollard?
A guide post shows drivers where to go; a steel bollard stops a car. Use flexible posts for lanes and keep clear areas, and steel bollards in front of glass, doors and people.
Can they be removed for access?
Yes. Dismountable flex posts sit on a central screw anchor, so they unscrew for a delivery or maintenance and go back in after.
Do they work at night?
Yes. Each post carries reflective panels, bands or tape, and corner cube reflectors can be added in a choice of colours.
Can we start with one car park?
Yes. One car park is enough. The same posts can then go in at your other sites.
