Bollards and door protection in Eastleigh

Town: Eastleigh
Postcode district: SO50
Area: Hampshire
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

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.
High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
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.

Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Eastleigh?

The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.

How the work is organised

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions

Can bollards at our Eastleigh 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 Eastleigh 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 Hampshire?

Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Hampshire, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
