Options that matter on site
- Wheel guides. Steel guides steer trailers straight into the middle of each bay.
- Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
- Dock bumpers. Bumpers that stop trailers at the right distance from the building.
- Steel bollards. Galvanised, painted steel bollards, concrete-filled where needed.
- High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
Typical scopes of work
- Placing bollards beside a fire shutter so stored goods and trucks cannot obstruct its closing line.
- 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.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Halifax, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
For busy sites in West Yorkshire 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 Halifax: your questions
Can you protect our existing doors in Halifax?
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.
Will fitting bollards damage the floor at our Halifax 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.
How much do bollards cost to install in Halifax?
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 Halifax.
