Maypole Heavy Duty Fold Down Security Post Concrete Set Type Driveways, Carports, Garages

Really pleased with this product. Solid lump of metal - weighs a bit which makes it feel solid and secure. It looks smart when installed. The hardest part was digging the hole! Some fast drying cement and 30 minutes later, the post was in and working as expected. This came with a padlock and 2 keys, which I hadn't expected, so really useful. For this price, this feels like really good value for money. Highly recommend.

Took some effort installing. Had flints and rock to get through. Had it three years and it's been hit hard twice. Firtst time it went up inside a DPD vans radiator. Damage=Bent the padlcock pin, which I replaced. DPD guy said it cost him £1500 Second time HGV reversed over it and drove off. Damage=Snapped padlock pin and tore the metal to the rear pin. Purchased a new pin and steel plates. Drilled a hole through the plates and all is good again. Basically, its been a work horse. Ive had three posts and this one has been way superior. Once its concreted in the ground it wont move! If I have to buy another, I can replace the pole and not the base. If anybody drive into it it WILL cause damage. I didnt go mad digging a big hole around it, just what was needed. I used quick set cement to fix it. The base hasnt moved in three years lol! Would I buy another and recommend it...YES 100%

Bought for our drive to protect the motorhome. A good sturdy product at a good price. The padlock is good quality too. Recommended.

With a sufficiently wide and deep hole and decent concrete, this post will not move. The folding feature is ideal for my gravel drive. I was worried about the paddle lock, where other have criticized it for being poor quality, but it is pretty sturdy and works well, once I had greased up the internal mechanism. Easy to fit and and lock.

The product is very durable. An idiot driver went into it and knocked it over slightly but the product is still working albeit it's now at an angle. 😔

Solid fixings and due to weight seems quite robust. I purchased these more of a deterrent than a protection but they seem to be strong enough to protect also (not yet tested). All in all I am very pleased especially at the price. Fixing is simple, drill a 41/2" hole to a little in excess of the depth (cutters can be hired), fill it with concrete drop in the post, it will require a little persuading with a piece of wood and hammer (with the post open) due to the concrete. ensure levels, let it set, and presto you are protected. Excellent. Note that locks are supplied also.

This is building with high quality metals. Easy to use and install. The supplied padlock is okay but i would suggest to upgrade. Its painted yellow and very visible.

Easy to concrete in but…. after only one week of use the key broke off in the lock with the post up! So glad this wasn’t in the middle of the night and I was able to get it out. Quality of the lock is rubbish so throw it away and get a decent one. The post is fine and worth the money on its own.

Great product. Should stop the robbers taking my new van.
