Options for bollards and door protection in Blackheath
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
- High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
Typical scopes of work
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
- Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.
- 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 Blackheath?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Bollards and door protection in Blackheath: your questions
Do you replace dock bumpers across Greater London?
Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Greater London, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
How long does it take to fit door protection in Blackheath?
Usually a few hours per door for base-plated bollards and guide guards. Bollards set in foundations take longer because of coring or excavation, and are often fitted out of hours to avoid disrupting traffic.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Blackheath 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.
