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.
Test and report
After the repair, every safety device and access input is tested with vehicles, and you receive a written report of the fault, cause and work done.

Why does our bollard rise and fall by itself?
Usually because a loop or its detector is faulty, or an access device is sending repeated signals. Damaged road surfaces and water in loop cuts are common causes. Diagnosis checks the loops first.
Our bollard rose under a car: what happens next?
Take it out of service and keep it lowered or secured. The safety loops, photocells and settings are checked to find out why it rose, and the damage is assessed. It should not return to use until the cause is fixed and the risk assessment reviewed.
