Options that matter on site
- Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
- High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
- Guide-rail guards. Protect the bottom of guides and tracks, where forks and pallets strike most often.
- Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
- Suitable fixings. We choose anchor bolts or foundations depending on the slab and expected impacts.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
- Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Leyland 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.
How the work is organised
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Your questions about bollards and door protection
How long does it take to fit door protection in Leyland?
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 bollards at our Leyland 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 much do bollards cost to install in Leyland?
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 Leyland.
