The short version
Forklifts and lorries knocking door guides out of line at your Llandudno site? Guide-rail guards and well-placed bollards usually cost far less than another door repair and the downtime that comes with it.

What to specify
- Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Steel bollards. Rigid steel posts that stop vehicles firmly in front of guides and frames.
What this work can involve
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Llandudno?
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.
How the work is organised
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Bollards and door protection in Llandudno: your questions
Can you protect our existing doors in Llandudno?
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.
How much do bollards cost to install in Llandudno?
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 Llandudno.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Llandudno 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.
