The stainless steel manufacturer is concerned about having countersunk screws on top which would make it very easy for someone to remove the screws and steal the stainless steel plates. 2. The stainless steel plates would still be epoxied in place. 3. With the removable stainless steel disc filling the lifting hole, you could just remove it and use the original lifting bolt to move the bollards. Please see attached drawing.

In reviewing the two drawings it is apparent to me that the only difference that can be seen is the bolt on top. If the manufacturer will countersink the screw into the SS plate I believe that will address everyone's concerns. Please let me know if there are any concerns that I am missing. If not I would defer to the manufacturer if they can countersink the bolt into the SS plate. If it can be done I would recommend that route. If not, please proceed with the original design.

If security is truly a concern, use a security fastener with a countersink-head. These can be purchased here: http://www.anzor.co.nz/?t=24&PCT1=21 These types of SS security fasteners are pretty common. The RFI is closed.
