Options that matter on site
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Steel bollards. Rigid steel posts that stop vehicles firmly in front of guides and frames.
- Polymer bollards. Flexible bollards that absorb impact and spring back.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
What this work can involve
- Adding steel guide-rail guards to a row of sectional loading doors at a distribution centre.
- Fitting polymer bollards inside a busy warehouse door to keep forklifts away from the door guides.
- Fitting rubber corner buffers to a door frame where pallet trucks clip the wall on a tight turn.
Loading bay safety in England
Dock levellers, shelters and restraints are work equipment, so in Leamington Spa 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
For busy sites in Warwickshire 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 Leamington Spa: your questions
How long does it take to fit door protection in Leamington Spa?
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 you protect our existing doors in Leamington Spa?
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 much do bollards cost to install in Leamington Spa?
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 Leamington Spa.
