What we check first in Nuneaton
In Nuneaton, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Warwickshire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
If your site in Nuneaton is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Nuneaton and Bedworth) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Raised kerbs also change the picture: a high kerb slows a wheel but does not stop a bumper, so the post still needs to sit within reach of the overhang rather than behind it. Positions are scanned and hand-dug before committing, and foundations are sized for the ground found rather than a fixed hole size.
- Use contrasting bands so posts are visible to partially sighted people, and avoid linking chains across routes.
- If a tested product has been requested, confirm PAS 170-1 or another stated standard and install to the tested foundation.
How the job runs
Watch how the site works
The free site survey looks at where cars park, where people walk and queue, and where incidents or near misses have happened. You receive a fixed written quote with positions marked.
Set out the line
Posts are set out allowing for bumper overhang and keeping clear routes for pedestrians, trolleys and wheelchairs.
Add bands and markings
Reflective bands are fitted and any wheel stops or line markings agreed in the scheme are installed.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Lit bollards | Low-level lighting bollards double as protection on walkways where the product is robust enough for the job. |
| PAS 170-1 tested bollards | Tested against low-speed vehicle impacts, for sites where proven performance has been asked for. |
| Stainless or architectural finishes | Stainless sleeves or decorative posts for shop entrances and public-facing frontages. |
What affects the quote
Our West Midlands guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Nuneaton firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Number of posts and length of line
- Ground conditions and services along kerb lines
- Unrated steel or PAS 170-1 tested products
Keeping them working
Protection bollards take the knocks they are there for, so inspect them regularly and after any reported strike. Damaged posts near entrances should be dealt with quickly, as a bent post with a torn edge is a hazard in its own right.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Nuneaton.

Should bollards be added at a drive-thru order point?
Often, yes, where people queue or sit beside the lane. Posts should follow the curve of the lane and be closest together at corners, where drivers tend to misjudge the turn. The positions are agreed on site with the operator.
Our outdoor seating faces the car park: what should we do?
Put a line of posts between the seating and the nearest parking or driving lane, with gaps narrow enough to stop a car. Positions should allow for cars that overshoot a bay. It is worth recording the decision in your risk assessment.
