Quick answer

Bollards and door protection for warehouses, yards and loading bays in Hanworth. We look at where your doors are being hit, then fit bollards, guards, buffers and bumpers to stop it happening again.

Town: Hanworth
Postcode district: TW13
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.

What this work can involve

Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.

What the law expects at a loading bay

Across Great Britain, including Hanworth, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.

Planning the work around your site

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Bollards and door protection in Hanworth: your questions

Can bollards at our Hanworth 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.

How long does it take to fit door protection in Hanworth?

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.

Which bollards suit our Hanworth 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.
