Common reasons for auto bollard repairs in Stourport-on-Severn

- Slow, jerky or noisy rising and lowering
What we check first in Stourport-on-Severn
The highway authority for local roads in Stourport-on-Severn is Worcestershire County Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
If your site in Stourport-on-Severn is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Wyre Forest) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Many automatic bollard faults start in the ground. Resurfacing contractors often cut through loops and ducts without realising they are there, so it is worth pointing them out before any roadworks.
- Collect and clean up hydraulic fluid leaks properly to avoid contaminating drains and ground.
- For crash-rated automatic bollards, involve the manufacturer where repairs could affect tested performance.
What happens on site
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.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Electro-mechanical repairs | Motors, gearboxes, couplings, position sensors and limit switches. |
| Heads and covers | Replacement heads, covers, reflective bands and light rings after impact damage. |
| Hydraulic repairs | Seals, hoses, valves, pumps and power packs, with fluid topped up or replaced and leaks cleaned up properly. |
