Options for bollards and door protection in Hampton

Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
Guide-rail guards. Protect the bottom of guides and tracks, where forks and pallets strike most often.
Wheel guides. Apron guides that centre trailers on the bay.

Jobs we can carry out

Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.

Loading bay safety in England

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

Keeping your site running during the work

Sites in and around Hampton 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.

Your questions about bollards and door protection

Can you protect our existing doors in Hampton?

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.

Which bollards suit our Hampton 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 bollards at our Hampton 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.
