What we fit in Streatham

Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.
Frame buffers. Buffers cushion knocks to frame edges and wall corners around the opening.
Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.

Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Streatham 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

Frequently asked questions

Can bollards at our Streatham 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.

Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Streatham 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.

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.
