Rules for auto bollard repairs in England

Bollards on adopted highway are a matter for the highway authority under the Highways Act 1980, so they need its written agreement. On private land the owner's agreement is what matters; listed buildings and conservation areas need a word with the planning team first. Rising bollards should fail safe, never rise beneath a vehicle, carry clear signs and give the emergency services an override.

How installation works

Agree the visit price

We confirm the cost of the diagnostic and repair visit in writing. Nothing is done until you have agreed it.

Make the entrance safe

On arrival, the crew makes the bollard and entrance safe, lowering or securing it as agreed with you and coning the area.

Diagnose the cause

Fault logs, loops, drive, electrics and pit are checked in turn to find the underlying cause rather than just the symptom.

Quote and repair

Simple faults within the visit are fixed on the day. Where parts or further work are needed, we quote them in writing and complete the repair once approved.

Our automatic bollard is stuck up: what should we do now?

Keep vehicles and people clear and do not try to force it. If you have a manual release key and know the procedure, you can lower it; otherwise cone it off. Then contact us with photographs and a description so we can price the visit.

Roadworks cut our loops: can they be replaced?

Yes. New loops are cut into the sound surface, connected and the detectors retuned. If the surface around them is damaged, it is repaired first so the new loops last.
