Options for bollards and door protection in Wimbledon
- Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
- Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
- Wheel guides. Apron guides that centre trailers on the bay.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
- 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.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Wimbledon, 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.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Wimbledon can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do bollards cost to install in Wimbledon?
Our guide price is £125 to £445 ex VAT per installed bollard, depending on size, material and fixing. Guide-rail guards and buffers are £345 to £1,495 per door. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey in Wimbledon.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Wimbledon 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.
