Bollards and door protection in Ealing

The short version

We can supply and install steel and polymer bollards, guide guards, frame buffers and dock bumpers in Ealing and across Greater London, with fixings chosen to suit your slab and the vehicles that use it.

Town: Ealing
Postcode district: W5
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
Guide-rail guards. Protect the bottom of guides and tracks, where forks and pallets strike most often.
Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.

What this work can involve

Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.
Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.
Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.

Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Ealing 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.

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 Ealing: your questions

Can bollards at our Ealing site be replaced after a strike?

Yes. Damaged bollards and guards can usually be replaced individually. We check the fixings and the slab around them first, because a bent bollard often loosens its anchors or cracks the concrete at its base.

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.

Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Ealing 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.
