Typical ram-raid bollards jobs in Haringey

Around Haringey, ram-raid bollards usually solve one of these:

  • Premises that have already been targeted once
  • Through-the-wall and freestanding ATMs
  • Warehouses and trade counters with roller-shutter entrances

Consents, ground and services in Haringey

In Haringey, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Haringey Council, the local highway authority. Red routes are managed by Transport for London. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.

If your site in Haringey is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Haringey Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.

We hand-dig near known services, adjust positions if a vault or duct is found, and reinstate the surface to match, whether that is slabs, block paving, asphalt or a sealed forecourt finish. Shop forecourts may be thin concrete over old fill, and filling station forecourts carry fuel lines, tank vents and interceptors that must be located precisely before anything is dug.

  • Leave clear gaps for wheelchairs and buggies, typically at least 1,000 mm, and keep the footway width usable, referring to Inclusive Mobility guidance.
  • Check who owns the ground in front of the shop; if it is public highway, the highway authority's agreement is needed.

How the job runs

Agree the post type and positions

We agree unrated or tested posts with you, your landlord and any insurer or security adviser involved. A fixed written quote sets out the positions, foundations and reinstatement.

Excavate and set the posts

Each position is hand-dug near services and taken to depth, then the post is set plumb in a reinforced concrete base. Work is planned around trading hours where possible.

Reinstate the pavement

Paving, tarmac or forecourt concrete is made good flush with the base of each post, leaving no trip edges.

Choosing the right spec

OptionDetail
Crash-rated bollardsTested to IWA 14-1, ISO 22343-1 or PAS 68 for high-value premises or where a vehicle could build up speed.
Removable postsLockable removable positions allow deliveries, shopfitting or shutter maintenance without leaving the frontage open permanently.
Reflective and contrasting bandsBands near the top help pedestrians, including partially sighted people, see the posts on a busy pavement.

What moves the price in Haringey

When we price ram-raid bollards in Haringey, these make the biggest difference:

  • Out-of-hours working to avoid closing the shop
  • Covers and finishes for shopping streets
  • Reinstatement of forecourt or natural stone surfaces

Looking after them

Check them after any knock, because a post that has been hit may have cracked its foundation even if it still looks straight. Ram-raid bollards are robust but not maintenance-free.

We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Haringey.

Will bollards stop an ATM being ripped out?

Correctly placed bollards stop a vehicle getting close enough to attach chains or ram the surround. They work alongside the machine's own anchoring and the bank's security measures. Positions need to cover the wall either side of the ATM as well as the front.

Can we still take deliveries through the front?

Yes, if one or more positions are removable. Staff unlock and lift out the post for deliveries, then refit it. The socket is designed to sit flush when the post is out.
