Product Overview
The RetractaPost-GL 900 is 900mm above ground when raised. Due to the heavy weight of the post, the GL 900 is also available with AUTOPA’s lift assist system which greatly reduces the lift up weight of the product and controls the post when lowering.
When lowered the post is fully below ground and covered using the integral lid. The post is lockable in the raised position by rotating the post 45° and then pressing the high-security push button 7-pin security lock. The post is unlocked using the supplied key, rotated and then lowered.
The RetractaPost-GL is ideal for protecting vehicle forecourts, commercial premises, car parks and domestic driveways.
