Options for bollards and door protection in Redhill
- Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
- Guide-rail guards. Protect the bottom of guides and tracks, where forks and pallets strike most often.
- Polymer bollards. Bollards that flex on impact, sparing the floor, the vehicle and themselves.
- Steel bollards. Rigid steel posts that stop vehicles firmly in front of guides and frames.
- Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing worn-through dock bumpers so reversing trailers stop short of the wall and the leveller lip.
- Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
- Setting concrete-filled steel bollards in excavated foundations to protect a yard roller shutter from HGV impact.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Redhill, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Surrey the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Bollards and door protection in Redhill: your questions
Which bollards suit our Redhill warehouse?
Steel bollards suit most yards and external doors; polymer bollards suit busy internal routes where they will be hit often. The slab and vehicle weights decide the fixing. We recommend after seeing where your doors are being struck.
Can bollards at our Redhill 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.
Can you protect our existing doors in Redhill?
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.
