What we fit in Flint
- Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
- Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
- High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
- Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.
- Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
Loading bay safety in Wales
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Flint the business running the site must keep them in efficient working order under PUWER 1998, and keep traffic routes safe under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Dock levellers are built to BS EN 1398; powered loading bay doors are covered by the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and BS EN 12453.
Planning the work around your site
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions
Which bollards suit our Flint 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.
Can you protect our existing doors in Flint?
Yes. Guards, buffers and bollards are fitted around existing doors and frames. If a guide or frame is already bent, we recommend repairing it first so the door runs properly behind its new protection.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Flint 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.
