BFT has been in the automation industry for over 40 years and supplies a range of automation products. We are known for product quality, customer service and expert technical support. BFT is recognised for gate automation systems but also has a large range of traffic barriers and automatic bollards, suitable for almost any industrial, commercial, or residential environment.

NBS Source is a digital platform for architects and specifiers to connect with Manufacturers. BFT UK joined NBS Source in January 2024 to connect with architects, engineers, specifiers, and other similar industry professionals. Our wide range of bollards, barriers and door operators can also be found on the NBS source, meaning you’re a few clicks away from adding a reliable product to your latest projects. (NBS login). 

In 2024, BFT developed a RIBA accredited CPD course, 'Protecting People, Plant and Property: How rising bollards meet the challenges set by Martyn’s Law.'  more information about the course is available here. The CPD course covers:

1. The different types of bollard available.
2. How to select the best rising bollard for your project.
3. How to ensure a problem-free installation – identifying the right contractor.
4. The standards and regulatory compliance.
5. Routine care and common maintenance issues.

This CPD course can also be delivered online. Further information can be found here (NBS login). To participate in this course and to learn more about which product to specify and why, please visit the RIBA CPD booking page.
