What we fit in West Bridgford
- Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.
- 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.
- Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
Typical scopes of work
- Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.
- 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.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in West Bridgford 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.
Keeping your site running during the work

Bollards and door protection in West Bridgford: your questions
Can you protect our existing doors in West Bridgford?
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.
How long does it take to fit door protection in West Bridgford?
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.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our West Bridgford 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.
