In short
Bollards and door protection for warehouses, yards and loading bays in Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire. We look at where your doors are being hit, then fit bollards, guards, buffers and bumpers to stop it happening again.

Options that matter on site
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
What this work can involve
- Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
Loading bay safety in Scotland
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire 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
Most installations in Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Bollards and door protection in Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire: your questions
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire 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 Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire 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.
Do you replace dock bumpers across Scotland?
Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Scotland, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
