Brighten pathways, gardens and driveways with our range of Solar Bollard Lights. Designed for easy installation and energy-efficient performance, they deliver reliable outdoor lighting with a clean, modern look.
Solar Bollard Lights are compact, short pole lights that rely on solar power as their energy source. These lights are designed with the environment in mind and are constructed using durable, outdoor-ready materials commonly found in industrial settings.
Their main function is to provide a gentle natural white light that helps brighten pathways, gardens, walkways, and outdoor access areas—without needing mains power or wiring.
Why should I consider using Solar Bollard Lights?
Significant Cost Savings
Compared to wired bollards, solar bollard lighting is far more cost-effective to install. There’s no need for trenching, electrical planning, or complex wiring. Solar bollards also require minimal maintenance, helping reduce long-term costs.
Utilisation of Smart Technology
Many modern solar bollards use smart controllers that adjust light output depending on:
time of night
activity levels
ambient lighting levels
area requirements
For example, rural spaces may require lower intensity to achieve visibility, while built-up areas may use higher brightness for safety.
Long-Lasting Durability
Solar bollard lights are built tough and often feature:
die-cast aluminium construction
architectural-grade powder coating
vandal-resistant components
strong base connections for stability
Many models are designed to withstand harsh environments—including marine and
What are the suitable locations for Solar Bollard Lights?
Solar bollard lights are a versatile and eco-friendly solution for outdoor lighting. Ideal locations include:
Public Parks and Reserves: At around 1 m tall, solar bollards illuminate pathways and enhance safety for evening visitors.
Gardens and Campus Grounds: Perfect for gardens, campuses, and retirement villages, offering low-maintenance, cost-effective lighting for residents and body corporates.
Caravan Parks: Create a safe and welcoming atmosphere for visitors with soft, natural light along paths and key areas.
Pathways: Ensure pedestrian safety in urban and built-up areas with reliable, long-lasting illumination throughout the night.
Jetties, Piers, and Boat Ramps: Provide dependable lighting near water for boaters and waterfront areas with solar-powered LED efficiency.
Solar bollards combine safety, style, and sustainability, making them ideal for a wide range of outdoor spaces.
Do Solar Bollard Lights need full sun to work properly?
Solarbollard lights perform best indirect sunlight, but they can still charge in partial shade or cloudy weather. For best results, place them where thesolarpanel receives 4–8 hours of sunlight per day.
How long do Solar Bollard lights stay on at night?
Most solar bollards are designed to run all night, typically 6–12 hours, depending on:
battery capacity
sunlight received that day
brightness settings
sensor activation (if included)
Some models will dim later at night to conserve power and extend runtime.
How far apart should Solar Bollard Lights be installed?
A good general spacing rule is 2m to 4m apart, depending on:
bollard brightness
beam spread
pathway width
how subtle or bright you want the result
If you want a premium, evenly-lit look, place them closer together. If you want a soft, decorative look, space them further apart.
Do Solar Bollard Lights turn on automatically?
Yes — most solar bollard lights automatically switch on at night using a dusk-to-dawn sensor, meaning:
