What we fit in Connah's Quay
- Guide-rail guards. Protect the bottom of guides and tracks, where forks and pallets strike most often.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
- Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Connah's Quay, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
Planning the work around your site
Sites in and around Connah's Quay vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Frequently asked questions
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Connah's Quay 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.
Which bollards suit our Connah's Quay warehouse?
Steel bollards suit most yards and external doors; polymer bollards suit busy internal routes where they will be hit often. The slab and vehicle weights decide the fixing. We recommend after seeing where your doors are being struck.
