The Z-Post – Bolt Down is a lightweight crash barrier support post designed for fast and secure installation onto concrete or hard-standing surfaces. Manufactured in a Z-profile steel format, it offers a cost-effective and flexible solution for Armco barrier runs in lower-risk zones such as car parks, warehouse interiors, and pedestrian-facing layouts.
This bolt-down version is fixed using four M16 x 120mm Floor Anchor Bolts per post, enabling fast surface-mounted installation with no excavation. It’s ideal for retrofitting barrier lines or establishing protection zones on prepared floors where dig-in posts are impractical or prohibited.
- Lightweight structural support – For areas with low to moderate vehicle exposure.
- Bolt-down format – Easy to install with pre-drilled base plates and standard fixings.
- Rust-resistant – Galvanised steel construction withstands outdoor conditions.
- Works with HERMEQ beams – Use with Straight and Curved Corrugated Beams.
- Modular safety design – Accepts all standard M16 barrier fixings and accessories.
Frequently installed in retail delivery zones, warehouse surrounds, and light-use service yards, these Z-posts absorb low-level impacts and redirect traffic away from pedestrian and asset areas. They are also used in edge protection layouts where HGV traffic is not expected, but structural protection is still required. HERMEQ bolt-down Z-Posts offer excellent value for barrier projects with moderate risk.
These posts form part of a complete HERMEQ system when combined with safety beams, Fish Tail Ends, Pedestrian Ends, and Barrier Corners. Quick-fit design ensures minimal disruption during installation while meeting UK safety expectations for B2B barrier systems.
HERMEQ stock a wide range of Armco components to support your barrier layout, including Straight Corrugated Steel Beams, Fish Tail Ends and Pedestrian Ends enabling complete site protection.

HERMEQ bolt-down Z-Posts are a smart choice for low-speed traffic control and internal facility protection. Their simplicity and flexibility make them a popular specification for builders, developers, and facility managers seeking an efficient solution for protecting workers and infrastructure in delivery and movement zones. These are often chosen for boundary marking and internal logistics zoning where collision forces are limited.
Installation requires minimal tooling and is achieved using floor anchors and post bolts compatible with standard HERMEQ fasteners. They can be paired with straight or curved beams and integrated seamlessly into existing layouts or newly specified safety barrier runs.
Where should Bolt-Down Z-Posts be used?
Ideal for car parks, internal warehouse areas, and low-impact barrier installations on concrete or tarmac.
Are Z-Posts compatible with curved beams?
Yes, these posts are suitable for use with both straight and curved Armco beams from HERMEQ.
Can these be used in HGV traffic zones?
No, for heavy impact environments use RSJ Bolt-Down or RSJ Dig-In Posts instead.
What fixings are required for installation?
Each post requires 4 x M16 x 120mm Floor Anchor Bolts and 1 x M16 x 50mm Post Bolt per beam connection.
