What we fit in Brislington
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Steel bollards. Rigid steel posts that stop vehicles firmly in front of guides and frames.
What this work can involve
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
- Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Brislington?
The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in Brislington can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do bollards cost to install in Brislington?
Our guide price is £125 to £445 ex VAT per installed bollard, depending on size, material and fixing. Guide-rail guards and buffers are £345 to £1,495 per door. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey in Brislington.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Brislington site?
We check slab thickness and look for buried services before drilling. Polymer bollards and proper foundations reduce the risk of slab cracking on heavy impacts, and we recommend the right fixing for your floor.
Do you replace dock bumpers across Bristol?
Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Bristol, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
