What to specify

  • Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
  • Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
  • Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
  • Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
  • Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.

Typical scopes of work

  • Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
  • Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
  • Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.

Loading bay safety in England

Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Sevenoaks 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.

Planning the work around your site

Sites in and around Sevenoaks vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Frequently asked questions

Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Sevenoaks 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.

Can bollards at our Sevenoaks 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 Sevenoaks?

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.
