The Driveable Base is designed for soil installations and is made of 2" x 2" 12 gauge perforated steel tubing.
Driveable Ballard Bases are a soil mount base designed for off road soil installations. This bollard base is not interchangeable with standard Impact Recovery Systems uprights, as it requires a special driveable spring assembly. Available with In Ground Socket Mount Extension.
1. Drive the base in the ground approximately 2”. Remove the base and dislodge the dirt from the bottom. 2. Using a drive cap and a sledgehammer, drive the base into the ground until 1” is left showing. You can also use a signpost driver with a driver cap. Do not use a sledge hammer directly on the base as it may bend and the unit will not fit into the base. 3. Make sure the unit you are installing is facing traffic and attach the unit with the four (4) ¾” hex screws and washers that are included with the base.
Weight: 4 lbs.
Better Fit - Because it is now a squared spring adapter fitting into the square tube, the fit is better and there is increased resistance to twist.
Reduced Driveable Base Cost - Standard 2" x 2" square tubing is commonly available and less expensive to purchase than less common size used previously.
Flexibility - Customers may provide their own square tubing if they so desire. A minimum length of 18" is required.
