Bollards and door protection in Swindon

The short version

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

Town: Swindon
Postcode district: SN1
Area: Wiltshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What we fit in Swindon

High visibility. Bright finishes make protection easy for drivers to see and avoid.
Frame buffers. Rubber or polymer buffers on corners and frames at vehicle height.
Dock bumpers. Fresh bumpers keep trailers off the wall, the leveller and the shelter.
Guide-rail guards. Guards over the base of door guides and tracks, where most hits land.
Suitable fixings. Base-plated or set in foundations, chosen for your slab.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing wheel guides and corner bollards on a run of loading bays to protect the shelter frames.
Replacing bent bollards and checking the slab and anchors around them before fitting new fixings.
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 Swindon 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.

How the work is organised

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Your questions about bollards and door protection

Can bollards at our Swindon 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 Swindon?

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.

Do you replace dock bumpers across Wiltshire?

Yes. We replace worn dock bumpers and fit wheel guides and corner bollards at loading bays across Wiltshire, often during a leveller service or bay refurbishment to save a separate visit.
