What we check first in Cannock
In Cannock, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Staffordshire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
If your site in Cannock is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Cannock Chase) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Deep foundations need care near the building's own footings and basement walls. 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.
- Ask your landlord, and check any lease restrictions on alterations to the frontage.
- In conservation areas or on listed buildings, ask the local planning authority whether consent is needed.
What happens on site
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.
Arrange consents
If the posts will stand on public highway, the highway authority's agreement is needed before work starts. Landlord consent is usually needed for leased units.
Reinstate the pavement
Paving, tarmac or forecourt concrete is made good flush with the base of each post, leaving no trip edges.
Options to consider
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Stainless or decorative covers | Covers over steel cores for shopping streets and branded frontages where plain steel would look out of place. |
| Concrete-filled steel posts | Thick-walled steel tube root-fixed in a deep reinforced base. The usual unrated choice for shopfronts and ATMs. |
| Reflective and contrasting bands | Bands near the top help pedestrians, including partially sighted people, see the posts on a busy pavement. |

What is PAS 170-1 and do I need it?
PAS 170-1 is a standard for testing vehicle security barriers against low-speed impacts. It suits ram-raid risks where someone has asked for tested performance, such as an insurer or security adviser. If nobody has asked for a tested product, a well-founded unrated post is often adequate.
How many bollards does a shopfront need?
Enough to leave no gap a car could pass through across the vulnerable part of the frontage. For a typical small shop that is often three to five posts, but it depends on the frontage width and where a vehicle could approach from. The survey sets the number.
