What to specify
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- High visibility. Yellow or yellow-and-black finishes that drivers notice.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Wheel guides. Apron guides that centre trailers on the bay.
- Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Farnborough?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
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.

Bollards and door protection in Farnborough: your questions
How long does it take to fit door protection in Farnborough?
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.
Can you protect our existing doors in Farnborough?
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.
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.
