Albert Dock Bollards - ASF 104
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF have for many years supplied these bollards for the Albert Dock area of Liverpool. Supplied in 2 different sizes - some to the standard pattern dimensions and some to a larger bespoke dimension the bollards are set up both as stand alone and with chain and chain eyes to form chain barrier systems.Manufactured in 100% recycled cast iron, and 100% recyclable and with an expected lifespan in excess of 100 years, these bollards are ideal for such a valuable and historic site
Anfield Football Ground
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF 650 Trough Bollards were chosen for the service entrance / players entrance of Anfield Football Ground. As there would be coaches and HGV access to that part of the ground the 'Boston' version of the ASF 650 was chosen, which offers a lid that is rated to H20 (US) loading standards. The ASF 5002 stainless steel bollard was chosen to be housed in the trough
ASF 101 M Logo Bollards for Morrisons Supermarkets
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
For decades ASF worked with Morrisons Supermarkets manufacturing the ASF 101 Bollard with the M logo associated with the supermarket chain. This supplied the UK based, in fact Yorkshire based, supermarket chain with a 100% Yorkshire manufactured and 100% recycled bollard for their storefronts and car parks. A bollard that quite literally nobody else could have. This offered the store brand identity and recognition nationwide. The bollards are incredibly long lasting (even if unpainted they will last in excess of 100 years) and durable. ASF supplied these bollards as standard cast iron bollards, but also supplied removable and fold down versions where necessary, as well as bollards that were adapted to take chains and panels to make matching perimeter post and rail / post and chain.
ASF 107 Post and Rail: Bristol Temple Quays
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF have long supplied the ASF 107 bollard to Bristol for a wide range of applications. When the quayside areas were developed the planning authorities wanted to have continuity with these bollards. ASF developed a 2 and 3 rail system using the design of the ASF 107 bollard as the standard. Bespoke pattern work was completed to mould from. The posts were manufactured in 100% recycled cast iron in our own Yorkshire based foundry. Some posts were supplied with full and part cores to accept a galvanised steel rail, and some supplied with eyelets for chain infill.
ASF 107 Post and Rail: Temple Quays (and surrounding areas), Bristol
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF have supplied this area with 100% recycled cast iron post and rail for many years. From the historically popular 2 rail ASF 107, which is essentially as adaption of the ASF 107 bollard also used in the area, to bespoke post and chain, access control, and for Temple Quays a taller, bespoke 3 Rail version.100% UK manufacture in 100% recycled cast iron giving an almost everlasting product (expected lifespan of iron, even when uncoated, is in excess of 100 years in normal use), this product offers both a stylish and highly practical solution. The flexibility of the product and it's versions offered by ASF means that moving forward we can meet the needs of future developments, irrespective of and minor or major design amendments.
ASF 128 Bollard / Step Unit Handrail
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF's 128 pattern cast iron bollard was used in this project as the post for a bespoke step unit. One side of the steps was fixed to a set of railings (also by ASF) by a core fixing directly to the bollard upright. The handrails themselves were bespoke manufactured mild steel, galvanised rails, with steel side mounting brackets made to mechanically fix into the ASF 128 Bollards.
ASF 134 Recycled Cast Iron Bollards - Whitwood
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF worked with a local urban designer to develop a unique bollard design for the Whitwood Project. ASF's in house pattern makers worked with the designer to produce a polystyrene tool, then a handmade timber model of the product which was used for wider approval in the scheme. Once approved the pattern was handmade and the bollards hand cast on our furane (airset) plant. The iron used was 100% recycled, melting down old, used vehicle brake discs and turning the molten metal into the sand moulds to manufacture the bollards.Although the bollards are cast iron, a material often associated with traditional styles, these particular ones offer sleek tapered lines and a steeply mitred top. The benefit of casting is that complex detailing can be included so these bollards have an inset leaf motif with an elongated teardrop that runs almost the full length of the post.
ASF 3 Rail Quayside Post - Southport
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF supplied this 100% recycled cast iron post for an extensive project in Southport. Ranging from footpath areas to the seafront the scheme includes an inland wetland and an area of parapet. Supplied with galvanised rails and the whole job finished in a satin dark blue this post and rail system really stands outThe incredible longevity of the 100% recycled cast iron means that these posts have a lifespan in excess of 100 years

ASF 3kN Pro Glass Channel System for the viewing platform of the Queens House, London
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were specified to manufacture a 3kN channel mounted glass balustrade system for the viewing platform overlooking the Queens House and city of London, located beside the Wolfe Statue in the Greenwich Royal Park.They system used 25.5mm thick sentry glass comprising 2 layers of toughened glass with a 1.5mm clear laminate between them. This was mounted into our own mega-grip channel. This product meets the deflection requirements for both EU and the higher, British Standard.The handrail overlooks the Royal Park, the Queens House and the City beyond and hosts a handrail fixed through the glass as a 'leaning rail' for the comfort of the public. Etched into the glass at a low level is the Royal Parks logo. These adaptions take an already high end glass balustrade system and elevate it into a great looking bespoke product.
ASF 4 Rail Quayside Stainless Steel Post and Rail, Swansea
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF Quayside post is available in cast iron, steel and stainless steel. On this project stainless steel was used with a 4 rail set up. The project included not only straight runs, but it took in some complicated topography and a Norwegian Gate that was a very difficult manufacture, but which looked and worked great in the end
ASF 5000 Bollard with Bespoke Enamelled Paintwork - Rusholme
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
This is an ongoing product for the Rusholme area that ASF have been manufacturing for over 15 years. They already stylish ASF 5000 triangular stainless steel bollard has on it's tall face an etched and enamelled design that makes this product that little bit better than the rest!
ASF 5002/M Bollards for Morrisons Supermarkets
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
For 2 decades ASF were the preferred supplier of the stainless steel bollards for the car park, store front and petrol filling stations at Morrisons Supermarkets. These grade 316 stainless steel bollards were thick walled and deep rooted as standard, with added inner cores for areas where ram raid was a risk. They were supplied both with and without visibility bands, depending on the the individual store specification.
ASF 5006 Handrailing at Bradford Library Steps
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were approached to replace some tired yet serviceable handrailing at the old Bradford Library in a change of use project. ASF used the popular 5006 posts with mitred tops and supplied a large central double handrail alongside a single handrail for a walled section. There was also a small section of single handrail supplied for a small side entry to the area. Pleasingly, ASF mitred the top of the bollard to match the angle of descent of the steps rather than just do them at the usual 45 degrees.ASF combined this with glass balustrade for the elevated walkway on the building concourse, which can be seen on some of the images.
ASF 5006 Knee Rail with ASF 5009 Bollards, Rotherham
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
A coordinated project using the ASF 5006 Knee Rail System and the complimentary ASF 5009 bollard (essentially an ASF 5006 bollard with an added, raised, painted stainless steel visibility swirl.This shows how grouping ASF products together creates a coordinated scheme. The ASF 5006 knee rail was actually the lead product on this one, but the authority liked the outcome so much they extended the use of the ASF 5009 bollards far into the surrounding area.
ASF 5006 post and rail, post and panel and step handrailing, Sale Town Hall
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF produced the full gamut of variants for this project, all using the ASF 5006 mitred top post system to give continuity. 114mm diameter post uprights were used to offer a substantial framework for these barrier and handrail systems. Some areas needed only handrail so a single sided underslung system was provided, with wrap around end profiles offering a pleasing end point to individual sections.On the post and panel sections a 48mm diameter top rail was used in conjunction with stainless steel perforated panels. These meshed perfectly into the step units that swapped seamlessly from post mounted to wall mounted handrail.Curves, corners and steps were included on this project
ASF 5006 Stainless Steel Hand Railing, Bradford Library
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
A hugely popular handrail design that ASF have supplied to projects in many locations. The full sized bollards that are used as post uprights give a sense of solidity and permanence, whilst the mitred top gives them just enough of a decorative nature to lift the product beyond a simple post and handrail job. In this project all welds and interfaces were polished back on site so the finished product becomes a complete unit with no visible fixings. With both double and single handrails over multiple flights and angles, this project shows how ASF can manage any project need.
ASF 5008 Guardrail
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
An impressive version pedestrian guardrail using the machine topped ASF 5008 bollard as posts, and solid bar stainless steel vertical infill panels to create the guardrail.
This system is made to order, and as such can be set up to host any combination of post and panel or hand railing. Contrasting polish finish can be used on the bollards to show the machined top as more of a feature.
Posts can be reinforced to make them ram raid resistant.
ASF 650 Trough Bollards - Little Neville Street, Leeds
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
We supplied our ASF 650 trough for this project in the centre of Leeds. The bollards were the standard product with no additional engineering for specific loading, but utilised our lid system which itself withstands over 8000kg spread load. The standard ASF 650 trough bollard is a steel trough with a reinforced durbar lid, finished galvanised, and hosting a 1000mm high, 101mm diameter stainless steel bollard.These bollards were used in a tunnelled area and had additional black reflective band.
ASF 8009 for Singletrack Cycling Magazine
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF produced the ASF 8009 continuous hooped cycle stand for this project funded by Singletrack Cycling and Mountain Biking Magazine. The hoops were a standard sized ASF 8009 with the addition of a tapping plate that was etched with the magazine logo
ASF Art Deco Stainless Steel Railings, Bradford Town Hall
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were approached by Bradford Council with drawings of a complicated art deco railing design. ASF worked to these drawings to produce a fully fabricated, fully welded set of railings for the area around Bradford Town Hall. The railings are manufactured in large section, heavy duty marine grade 316 stainless steel that was then painstakingly hand polished to give a satin brushed final look. The railings are sited around garden areas, along walkways and a shorter version was manufactured to run along a wall top. The end product is a very robust, visually stunning railing that requires little maintenance.
ASF Ascot LED Posts - Lough Erne Resort, Enniskillen
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were approached by Maxwell Pierce Architects to supply a bespoke illuminated cast iron post and rail system for a causeway linking golf courses at the Lough Erne Golf Resort. Previously, this post had not been used in conjunction with any lighting so the brief became a bespoke project.ASF worked with our lighting partners LPT Lighting (part of the PIA Group) to develop not only 100% bespoke lighting modules but also a machined aluminium carrier to host lights themselves.As part of WB White Foundry ASF were able to adapt the post pattern in house to have a custom inlet to house this aluminium carrier.The outcome is an LED lit causeway that allows multi use - cars, golf buggies and pedestrians. The pedestrian areas are lit to 2m into the causeway to task standards (ie; meeting lighting standard requirements).
ASF Balmoral Parapet Panel Post, Salford Quays
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
The ASF Balmoral short panel post was used as a parapet railing for the top of a section of refurbished industrial walling alongside the Manchester Shipping Canal. The acorn finial and feature rail knuckles make a decorative and chunky post to house panels made with slightly oversize tube. The overall effect turns this practical 'safety rail' into a design feature that compliments the heritage parts of the famous Salford Quays development. ASF also manufactured many of the stainless steel street furniture products seen in the pedestrian and residential areas of the Quays.
ASF Balmoral Parapet Wall Post and Panel, Sale Town Hall
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were already doing extensive works at Sale Town Hall using the ASF Balmoral Panel Post with sight gap, employed as pedestrian guardrail. To the rear of the Town Hall is the Bridgewater Canal which is followed by the Bridgewater Way. An existing wall was being heightened alongside the footpath to make it higher than the mixed use development area directly to the rear of the building. Wishing to ensure a suitable barrier but not completely obscure the view, the client chose the ASF Balmoral Parapet Post and Panel System for the wall top.This allows people to stand on the higher ground and still enjoy the vistas along the canal whilst ensuring the wall itself reaches an overall height to meet the required standards.
ASF Balmoral PGR Panel Post, Keighley Town Centre
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were approached by Bradford Council to manufacture and supply the Balmoral Posts with Panels set up as a guardrail - with a vertical infill panel in the lower section and topped with a sight gap and top rail.The site had a variety of straight and curved sections with slight gradients in some areas of both.ASF manufactured the posts and panels to meet the needs of each individual part of the site, whether that be a straight run, cambered around a gentle curve or with the panels following the physical curves if needed.All posts are 100% recycled, made from used vehicle brake discsThe system meets and exceeds 1.5kN loading
ASF Balmoral Post and Panel with Top Rail, Keighley Town Centre
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF supplied extensive runs of Balmoral Post and Panel with Top rails for this town centre development. Balmoral posts feature decorative shallow pyramid rail knuckles and an acorn ball finial, which frame the more utilitarian guardrail type railing panels giving the whole job a more architectural feel than simple guardrail alone. The Balmoral post is available not only this set up, but also as a full panel post, a 2 rail, 3 rail and knee rail post, offering excellent versatility alongside very agreeable looks.
ASF Bespoke Bronze Street Furniture, Crowle Market Square
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF worked closely with the architect to develop a 'whole material solution' for what started as an open spec project. The brief was to produce a single material and very high quality street furniture package that complimented but did not dominate the market square. It was decided that LG2 Aluminium Bronze would be used. In this material ASF produced bespoke cycle stands, feature paving strips, a feature paving tree surround and bollards as well as step units to properties surrounding the square. Feature products were all sand cast and above ground externals machine engineered.
ASF Bespoke Bronze Tree Grilles, NOMA, Manchester
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
Drawings of these decorative grilles were supplied to ASF as proposed designs. ASF then specified these up including all manufacturing techniques and grade of bronze. Grilles were waterjet profiled and mounted on ladder frames, with a hidden steel support plate beneath to support the malleable bronze. PB102/EW541K bronze was chosen, a grade of bronze known for high fatigue strength and ductility. The end result is a stunning tree grille that will patina over time, getting better year on year.
ASF Bespoke Corten Planter / Seat
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF Manufactured this large planter and seat from corten steel. The structure of the planter is 100% corten, manufactured as modular sections that were transported to site in sections and simply put together in situ. The seat area is a lowered platform alongside a running edge of the planter with hardwood seat slats attached to the top with invisible fixings. The seat area brings the lowered side up to full planter height so people can sit alongside the raised garden bed the planter creates.
ASF Bespoke Machined Top Stainless Steel Bollards, Glasgow
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF manufactured these bespoke stainless steel bollards for Glasgow City Centre. Manufactured from a solid stainless steel bar, these bollards are a lot more resilient than their lean profile would suggest.
ASF Bespoke Waterfront Railings, Birkenhead
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
This long run of railings brought with it a number of manufacturing challenges and techniques. They needed to be curved in profile so they form a quayside post, curving and leaning inwards so they do not make a 'natural ladder' beside the water. The panels themselves are manufactured in mild steel, finished galvanised and then painted in satin finished graphite grey. The top rails are of a contrasting polished finished grade 316 stainless steel, finished satin brushed. The run of railings has a combination of straight and curved panels, meaning each individual horizontal infill bar needed to be curved individually.
ASF Bexhill Post and Rail, Bexhill on Sea
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
HTA Architects designed the Next Wave scheme to renovate the seafront and public realm surrounding the Grade 1 listed modernist De La Warr pavilion. The CABE Seachange Funded project which aims to make the area a more attractive place for residents and visitors to Bexhill, and a catalyst for economic regeneration of this seaside resort.When Bexhill on Sea needed a new barrier for the seafront promenade, Architectural Street Furnishings (ASF) was contacted to look at the project.For harsh coastal environments, ASF would typically advise the use of cast iron products, however the client brief requested the barrier was constructed from aluminium, in a design that was sympathetic to the architecture of the De La Warr pavilion.Aluminium is not renowned for being particularly durable in coastal environments. To ensure the barrier would withstand the environmental conditions over time, ASF had the aluminium hard anodised.The anodising process involved the immersion of aluminium in a bath of sulphuric acid (an electrolyte) and running a low voltage electrical current through the bath. Normal anodising results in a thin coating of aluminium oxide (rust) on the surface of the material, hard anodising is achieved by cooling the solution to freezing temperature and increasing the amount of electric current that is passed through the bath.Hard anodising produces a much thicker coating of aluminium oxide, rendering the finished material only a few hardness points below diamond and protecting it against harsh environments such as the salt at the coast.The client agreed the simple clean lines of the design and a machined aluminium cap was added to finish off the modern and stylish barrier.The finished result is a low maintenance, minimalist seafront barrier that will not pitt or corrode over time. The use of anodised aluminium enabled the client's brief to be matched without the need for compromise.
ASF Birkenhead Quayside Railings
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were approached to manufacture and supply a quayside post and rail system for the old docks on Birkenhead, as part of a regeneration project. The client didn't want the traditional curved cast iron post option, nor the usual version of the same but in stainless steel.ASF worked with the client to agree a design that combines a robust steel panel, bolt fixed to the dockside with a large diameter stainless steel handrail on top. Sections were both straight and curved and panels were bespoke manufactured for each section of the dock.The outcome is a striking, cranked quayside panel system that has the clean straight lines of a contemporary product but still works remarkably well in this regenerated industrial landscape
ASF Blackburn Post and Panel
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF had been manufacturing a whole range of products for Blackburn Centre via Capita Blackburn, using a whole range of material - granite for seating and architectural elements, timber, granite and stainless steel seating, stainless steel and granite bollards etc etc. ASF were then approached to work on a bespoke post and panel design for a rising and curving site along a roadside, designed to form a definite but aesthetically pleasing barrier. Working on drawings initially supplied by the client, ASF's pattern makers made the tooling for the posts and successfully produced test castings of them. The posts are manufactured in 100% recycled cast iron and in isolation automatically meet 3kN loading.The panel designs were a product of multi agency teamwork to come up with a design that complimented the posts but were also pleasing in isolation.
ASF Boston Load Bearing Trough Bollards, Liverpool Football Club
Architectural Street Furnishings part of WB White Foundry
ASF were already supplying the ASF 5002 bollard to this site with an internal heavy duty steel core to make them ram raid resiatent, when we were asked about bollards that would fold into a trough below ground level. These were for the players entrance and would need to sustain a lot of traffic passover as well as fully loaded coaches. The ASF Boston Trough was used which is manufactured to meet the U.S. H20 load bearing capacity, suitable for 'large trucks', HGV's and artics. This has a 32,000lbs axle weight capacity
